AbstractThis study aims to identify the mathematical model of an electrical car in order to control steering and speed. The electrical car used in this study, was participated Thailand Intelligent Vehicle Challenge (nVC) 2006, which purposes to design and develop an intelligent vehicle that is able to drive by itself without human handling. The system for speed and steering control are important role that vehicle reaches the destination. Mostly, the bicycle model is the reference model to design steering control because it explains the stability of vehicle. However, the model contains several parameters those are uncertainty and not able to directly measure. System identification is used widely in automotive application; to estimate unknown parameters or mathematical model of process, based on input and output obtained from the real experiment. The model related the steering wheel angle to heading or vehicle's orientation can be identified by this method. With identified the mathematical model matched 99%, vehicle heading control system can be designed, which its simulation and experiment results are satisfied
