Abstract: An improved traction control system in which a wheel spin condition is detected based on measured vehicle acceleration instead of measured wheel speeds. An electronic controller detects a wheel spin condition by computing the acceleration of the vehicle drive shaft and comparing the computed acceleration to an acceleration threshold stored as function of vehicle speed and wheel torque. If the computed acceleration exceeds the threshold for more than a predetermined time, the engine torque is reduced in relation to the amount by which the computed acceleration exceeds the threshold. When the computed acceleration falls below the threshold, the torque reduction is gradually removed. The wheel torque, vehicle speed and drive shaft acceleration are easily determined and filtered, and the incremental cost of the traction control function is primarily related to the memory requirements to accommodate the acceleration threshold look-up table. The control may be mechanized in a vehicle having electronic throttle control, and the desired torque reduction in such a mechanization may be achieved with one or more of throttle area control, spark timing control and fuel cutoff control.
Abstract translation: 一种改进的牵引力控制系统，其中基于测量的车辆加速度而不是测量的车轮速度来检测车轮旋转条件。 电子控制器通过计算车辆驱动轴的加速度并将计算的加速度与作为车速和车轮转矩的函数存储的加速度阈值进行比较来检测车轮旋转状态。 如果所计算的加速度超过阈值超过预定时间，则发动机转矩相对于所计算的加速度超过阈值的量减小。 当计算出的加速度低于阈值时，转矩降低逐渐消除。 车轮扭矩，车速和驱动轴加速度很容易确定和过滤，牵引力控制功能的增量成本主要与容纳加速度阈值查询表的内存要求相关。 可以在具有电子节气门控制的车辆中机械化控制，并且可以通过节流区域控制，火花正时控制和燃料切断控制中的一个或多个来实现这种机械化期望的扭矩减小。

Abstract: An improved method of governing vehicle acceleration in which desired throttle area is initialized to an open-loop, vehicle speed dependent, value at the onset of vehicle acceleration governing, and is thereafter updated based on a combination of open-loop, and proportional and integral closed-loop terms. The open-loop term is calibrated to produce a throttle area limit for controlling the vehicle acceleration on flat terrain with nominal loading at sea level, while the proportional and integral terms compensate for terrain inclination, loading and altitude, yielding an optimal balance of smoothness and response time. The open-loop term may be empirically determined as a function of both vehicle speed and barometric pressure, and the vehicle acceleration is computed using a least squares approximation of acceleration based on successively measured values of vehicle speed.
