Abstract—This research integrates the electronic control unit of the analogous active suspension system, which includes the adjustment of adjustable air springs, adjustable hydraulic dampers, and a variety of sensors, and retains the CAN Bus node, which can communicate with other electronic control units . This system can adjust the elastic coefficient K value of the spring and the damping coefficient C value of the hydraulic damper simultaneously through electronic control according to the different road conditions or user preferences. It also integrates the height, pressure value and six-axis inertia. The measuring sensor can monitor the dynamic characteristics of the car body. The suspension system is regulated by the electronic control unit to improve the comfort or handling during riding.

Index Terms—analogous active suspension, K vale, C value, electronics control unit, controller
