Model predictive control (MPC) in automotive active safety applications has gained great success in recent years. Detailed vehicle models along with a receding horizon control scheme seek the optimal control distribution among actuators for enhanced performances while satisfying system constraints. To promote the re-usability and scalability of MPC-based vehicular active safety systems, an agent-based MPC (AMPC) is proposed in our previous study for a modularized control architecture. In this paper, implementation of the control scheme is demonstrated on an all-wheel-drive test platform. Both centralized and agent-based MPCs for vehicular stability are compared for their control performances as well as computational costs on embedded hardware. It is shown from experimental results that agent-based MPC is more flexible and computationally efficient in handling vehicle active safety challenges while gives no compromise to control performances compared to their holistically formulated counterparts.
