This study details an efficient fuzzy logic controller (FLC) to improve the performance of active automotive suspension system. A comparison between passive and FLC active suspensions is performed. A mathematical model of automotive active suspension has six degrees of freedom and two input forces generated by two separate actuators are solved using Matlab Simulink. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed controller under random road disturbance, several performance criteria are assessed based on the dynamic response of the half automotive suspension system. Simulation results of the active suspension system based on the fuzzy logic clearly have been provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the FLC under different road conditions and confirmed that fuzzy logic is very effective for enhancing ride comfort and stability of the vehicle.
