Abstract: A vehicle may include a chassis, four wheels, and an active suspension system operatively coupled to the four wheels and the chassis, where the active suspension system comprises at least one actuator configured to apply active forces to at least one of the four wheels. A processor may be configured to control the active suspension system by receiving a first force request for force to alter a first motion characteristic of the chassis, allocating a first force allocation to the first force request based on a force capacity, receiving a second force request for force to alter a second motion characteristic of the chassis, allocating a second force allocation to the second force request based on the first force allocation, and commanding the at least one actuator to apply force based on the first force allocation and the second force allocation.
