VEHICLE YAW RATE ESTIMATION SYSTEM

A yaw rate estimation system for a vehicle includes a control receiving inputs indicative of (i) a first yaw rate determined by a yaw rate sensor of the vehicle, (ii) a second yaw rate derived from ABS wheel sensors of the vehicle, (iii) a third yaw rate derived from a lateral acceleration of the vehicle and (iv) a fourth yaw rate derived from a steering wheel angle, wheel angle and rate of change of steering wheel angle. The control is operable to process the inputs to estimate the yaw rate of the vehicle, with the estimated yaw rate derived from the inputs.
