1. A method for active front wheel steering control for a vehicle having steerable front wheels and fixed rear wheels, comprising:

  • generating a steering wheel angle signal corresponding to a steering wheel angle;

    controlling the steerable front wheels based upon a steering control signal comprising a combination of an open-loop steering control signal and a closed-loop steering control signal;

    estimating vehicle dynamics parameters based upon signal inputs from vehicle sensors;

    providing the open-loop steering control signal corresponding to the steering wheel angle signal;

    providing the closed-loop steering control signal based upon the estimated vehicle dynamics parameters;

    providing an original yaw rate feedback angle signal; and

    providing a corrected yaw rate feedback angle signal based on the estimated vehicle dynamics parameters;

    wherein the corrected yaw rate feedback angle signal is provided in accordance with the relationship;
