This work investigates the challenge of steering system positional control with a specific view to autonomous driving. Positional control of steering systems has, until now, been under-researched to meet the performance scope of fully autonomous driving. As such, a parallel axis steering gear, found in luxury vehicles, is the target system for this work. The focus of this thesis is a model-based approach to steering control. Moreover, these models are developed using measurement based techniques, thereby determining the main factors reproducing the system behaviour.
