Apparatus for controlling shift of vehicle and method therefor
An apparatus configured for controlling shift of a vehicle and a method therefore are provided. The apparatus include a storage storing a deep learning model, learning of which is completed; and a controller that predicts a vehicle speed and an accelerator position sensor (APS) value for each future time point according to the deep learning model, predicts a gear stage for each future time point using the predicted vehicle speed and the predicted APS value, and controls the shift of the vehicle based on the gear stage for each future time point, thus preventing a busy shift phenomenon and preventing an acceleration delay phenomenon.
Method of determining a commanded friction brake torque
A method of determining a commanded friction brake torque is disclosed. The method uses inputs, such as from a gearshift sensor, an accelerator pedal sensor, a brake pedal sensor, and engine torque output sensor, a transmission speed input sensor and a transmission speed output sensor, to determine how much engine braking or regenerative braking is occurring. The method then uses this information combined with the braking command information from the brake pedal sensor to determine the amount of friction braking to apply to the friction brakes.

Power transmission control device
A power transmission control device acquires rotation speed information of an idle gear corresponding to a target engagement member and rotation speed information of a sleeve corresponding to an engagement member, sets one rotation speed changeable by a power source as a synchronization side rotation speed, sets the other rotation speed as a target synchronization side rotation speed, allows a differential rotation between the synchronization side rotation speed and the target synchronization side rotation speed to match a predetermined differential rotation by changing the synchronization side rotation speed using the power source after a power transmission releasing state is selected due to a gear changing request, performs an engagement operation, inverts a sign of the predetermined differential rotation, and switches to the power transmission state while allowing the differential rotation to match the predetermined differential rotation of which the sign is inverted.
METHOD FOR SYNCHRONISATION OF A FIRST TRANSMISSION COMPONENT
A method for performing rotational speed synchronisation of a first transmission component having a first initial rotational speed with a second transmission component having a second initial rotational speed, so that they rotate with the same final rotational speed during a gear switch from an initial driving gear to a final driving gear in a stepped gear transmission for a hybrid electric or electric drive train having an electric traction motor. The method including calculating a total frictional work resulting from performing the total rotational speed synchronisation by means of a mechanical synchroniser of the stepped gear transmission only, and if the calculated total frictional work exceeds a maximal frictional work of the mechanical synchroniser, performing the rotational speed synchronisation by means of both the electric traction motor and the mechanical synchroniser.
