Title:
ROAD SURFACE STATE DETECTING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3393500
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PURPOSE: To provide a road surface state detecting device capable of improving the judgement precision of a road surface state by setting the upper and the lower limit values of the input range of the sound pressure value of a road noise in accordance with frequency or car speed.
CONSTITUTION: The road noise is detected by a road noise detecting means 1 such as a microphone, etc., and the detected road noise is frequency-analyzed by a filter 3, and the road noise of the specified frequency is inputted to a neural network. At that time, if the specified frequency is of a 63Hz band, for instance, since the sound pressure value of it belongs to the range of 7 dB to 100dB (range of area (r) added with some allowance) irrespective of the road surface state, the road noise detected actually is inputted to the neural network after being normalized according to this range (converted into real number value of range of 0 to 1).
