Control system for a vehicle

A control system for a vehicle:

• the control system comprising a force determination controller adapted to determine external load characteristics of external loads that currently act or are predicted to act on the vehicle;
• the control system being adapted to determine a resulting force vector to be acting on the vehicle, using the external load characteristics, in order to obtain a requested vehicle operation behaviour;
• the control system further being adapted to issue control information to one or more motion support devices of the vehicle in order to control the one or more motion support devices so as to generate the resulting force vector on the vehicle;
• wherein the control system comprises a feedforward controller adapted to receive wind information representative of a wind currently acting or predicted to be acting on the vehicle, the feedforward controller being in communication with the force determination controller whereby the force determination controller is adapted to use wind load information, indicative of the wind load imparted on the vehicle and determined on the basis of the wind information, for determining at least a portion of the external load characteristics.
