1. A vehicle comprising:
- an electric machine; and
a controller configured to, during driving and following a rolling reset of the controller,bypass startup procedures and provide the electric machine a command adjusted based upon sensor calibration values identified prior to the rolling reset responsive to vehicle speed being greater than a threshold, andundergo the startup procedures responsive to the vehicle speed being less the threshold.

Abstract
A vehicle is provided including an electric machine and at least one controller. The controller, or controllers, are configured to, in response to a reset of the at least one controller while a speed of the vehicle is greater than a threshold value, provide a current command to the electric machine in accordance with calibration values calculated prior to the reset such that inoperability of the electric machine due to the reset is less than one second.

5. A powertrain control system for a vehicle comprising:
-
an electric machine; a first controller configured to supply a torque command; and a second controller configured to generate a current sensor calibration value at vehicle startup, to provide a current command to the electric machine based on the torque command and the current sensor calibration value, to bypass a startup procedure following a rolling reset during driving responsive to a speed of the vehicle being greater than a threshold value, and to undergo the startup procedure following the rolling reset during driving responsive to the speed being less than the threshold value, wherein the first controller is further configured to minimize a duration of inoperability of the electric machine following the rolling reset during driving of the second controller based on storing the current sensor calibration value and providing the current sensor calibration value to the second controller responsive to the rolling reset during driving of the second controller and the speed being greater than the threshold value. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7)

8. A method for controlling torque actuation of a hybrid-electric vehicle, the method comprising:
-
generating a current command signal for an electric machine to propel the vehicle based on a torque request; in response to a vehicle startup, generating a current sensor calibration value indicative of a current command adjustment offset; sending a signal to a first controller indicative of the current sensor calibration value; storing the current sensor calibration value in a memory of the first controller; in response to a rolling reset of a second controller during driving and a speed of the vehicle being greater than a threshold, prompting the second controller to bypass startup procedures and providing the current sensor calibration value to the second controller; and in response to a rolling reset of the second controller during driving and the speed being less than the threshold, prompting the second controller to undergo the startup procedures. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10)
