MODEL BASED DRIVER TORQUE ESTIMATION
First Claim
1. A control system for a power steering system, the system comprising:
- an error module that generates an error signal based on a difference of an estimated output vector and an output vector;
a scaling module that calculates a feedback correction signal based on the error signal and an observer gain value;
an extended state vector estimation module that determines an extended state vector estimate based on the feedback correction signal and a motor torque command; and
a gain module that applies a gain to the extended state vector estimate to generate an estimated driver torque signal, the estimated driver torque signal is applied in control of the power steering system.
