Track Estimation for Multi-Axle Steered Vehicles

Due to the ever-increasing volume of transport, long truck-trailer combinations are required. To maintain maneuverability, several axles are actively steered in these transport systems. For steer-by-wire steering and maneuver assistance, the knowledge of the own vehicle track is essential. For this purpose, filter and observer approaches are investigated considering different sensor constellations.
