The paper addresses the design of a rider on saddle detection algorithm for an all-in-the-wheel Electric Power Assisted bicycle that is not equipped with a torque sensor. The algorithm is based on inertial and motor velocity measurement along with pedal cadence. The proposed system is based on the hierarchical analysis of three different dynamics: longitudinal, lateral and vertical dynamics. By framing the problem as a fault detection system, it is shown that the system can activate the assistance only when the cyclist is on the saddle, thus increasing safety.

Abstract
The paper addresses the design of a rider on saddle detection algorithm for an all-in-the-wheel Electric Power Assisted bicycle that is not equipped with a torque sensor. The algorithm is based on inertial and motor velocity measurement along with pedal cadence. The proposed system is based on the hierarchical analysis of three different dynamics: longitudinal, lateral and vertical dynamics. By framing the problem as a fault detection system, it is shown that the system can activate the assistance only when the cyclist is on the saddle, thus increasing safety.File in questo prodotto:
