Abstract

An automatic calibration method of an angle sensor for an automatic drive control system of a farm machine includes the following steps. S1: fixing a steering wheel of the farm machine to make front wheels of a vehicle kept at a fixed angle. S2: collecting a plurality of pieces of current position information of the farm machine, and processing the plurality of pieces of current position information to obtain an average value. S3: establishing a two-wheel farm machine kinematics model based on a center of a rear axle. S4: performing a radius calculation to obtain a set of angle correspondences. S5: rotating the farm machine by a preset angle at a constant speed with the rear axle of the farm machine as a center, and performing S1 through S4. S6: after performing S5 for several times, performing an angle value fitting calculation to obtain a calibration coefficient.
