An Adaptive Engine Control Algorithm for Acceleration Response 910256
Chassis back and forth oscillation caused by sudden engine torque increase tends to occur, according to the characteristic of vehicle dynamics. This oscillation is called an acceleration surge and gives a vehicle driver a feeling of discomfort. This paper provides two control methods which can change the characteristic of vehicle acceleration response in order to suppress acceleration surge and to macth with driver's preference.
The first control method is an acceleration servo method which is composed of control reference model and ignition timing control.
The second control method is a variable response characteristic control algorithm. We treat the controlled object as the second order model with time delay, and assign the characteristic roots of transfer function in order to obtain the desired response.
