Vehicle mass estimation is the key technology to improve vehicle stability. However, the existing mass estimation accuracy is easily affected by the change of road gradient, and there are few studies on the mass estimation method of the light truck. Aiming at this problem, this paper uses sensors to measure road gradient and rear suspension deformation and proposes a sensor-based vehicle mass estimation algorithm. First, factors that affect the mass estimation are analyzed, road gradient error correction method and mass estimation error correction method are established. Besides, the suspension deformation is decoupled from the road gradient. Second, the mass estimation algorithm model was established in Matlab/Simulink platform and compared with the mass estimation iterative algorithm. Finally, the road test was carried out under various conditions, the results show that the proposed mass estimation algorithm is robust, and the accuracy of the mass estimation will not be affected by the sudden change of road gradient.
