Description:SMART TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A VEHICLE AND METHOD THEREOF

FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE
[0001] This invention generally relates to a field of vehicle traction control systems, and in particular, relates to a smart lift axle control system and a method for enhancing vehicle traction and minimizing brake wear using ABS sensor feedback.
BACKGROUND
[0002] The subject matter discussed in the background section should not be assumed to be prior art merely as a result of its mention in the background section. Similarly, a problem mentioned in the background section or associated with the subject matter of the background section should not be assumed to have been previously recognized in the prior art. The subject matter in the background section merely represents different approaches, which in and of themselves may also correspond to implementations of the claimed technology.
[0003] In heavy-duty vehicles, maintaining optimal traction is essential for safe and efficient operation, especially in challenging drivin , C , Claims:WE CLAIM:
1. A system (100) for enhancing vehicle traction and minimizing brake wear, comprising:
a first sensor (102) configured to monitor wheel speed of a vehicle (200);
a second sensor (104) operationally coupled to the first sensor (102), and is configured to detect slippage of at least one tire of the vehicle (200) based at least on the monitored wheel speed;
a lift axle control unit (106) operationally coupled to the second sensor (104), wherein the lift axle control unit (106) is configured to disengage a lift axle (202) upon detection of the slippage of the at least one tire;
a load redistribution unit (108) operationally coupled to the lift axle control unit (106), and is configured to shift weight to a drive axle to recover traction of the at least one tire; and
a control unit (110) communicatively coupled to the load redistribution unit (108), and is configured to re-engage the lift axle (202) upon detecting traction recovery and the wheel speed of the vehicle (200) exceeding a predetermined thre
