When the vehicle moves on the road, many external factors affect the vehicle. These effects can cause oscillation and instability for the vehicle. The oscillation of the vehicle directly affects the safety and comfort of passengers. The suspension system is used to control and extinguish these oscillations. However, the conventional passive suspension system is unable to fully meet the vehicle’s requirements for stability and comfort. To improve these problems, these are much modern suspension system models that have been used in the vehicle to replace the passive suspension system. The modern suspension systems are used as the air suspension system, semiactive suspension system, and active suspension system. These systems which are controlled automatically by the controller were established based on the control methods. There are a lot of control methods which are used to control the operation of the active suspension system. These methods have their advantages and disadvantages. Almost, conventional control methods such as PID, LQR, or SMC are commonly used. However, they do not provide optimal efficiency in improving a vehicle’s oscillation. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a novel solution for the active suspension system control to improve the vehicle’s oscillation. In this paper, the method of using the double-integrated controller is proposed to solve the above problem. The double-integrated controller consists of two hydraulic actuators which are controlled completely separately. This is a completely novel and original method that can provide positive effects. This research focuses on establishing, simulating, and evaluating the novel control method Ththe double-integrated control) for the active suspension system. Theresults of the research have shown that when the vehicle is equipped with the active suspension system which is controlled by the double-integrated controller, the maximum values of displacement and acceleration of the sprung mass are significantly reduced. They reach only 6.25% and 9.10% Thcase 1) and 6.00% and 6.12% Thcase 2) compared to the conventional passive suspension system. Besides, its average values which are calculated by RMS are only about 3.91% and 4.67% Thcase 1) and 4.48% and 4.77% Thcase 2) compared to the above case. Therefore, the comfort and stability of the vehicle have been improved. This paper provides new concepts and knowledge about the double-integrated control method which will become the trend to be used in the next time for the systems of the vehicle. In the future, experimental procedures also need to be conducted to be able to more accurately evaluate the results of this research.
