VELOCITY ESTIMATION FOR ELECTRIC POWER STEERING SYSTEMS
First Claim
1. A steering system that can determine a motor velocity estimate for a motor of the steering system, the steering system comprising:
- a state observer module configured to compute a base motor velocity estimate of the motor based on a plant model of the steering system; and
a standstill detection module configured to modify a delay compensated velocity estimate in response to a handwheel of the steering system being in standstill mode, the delay compensated velocity estimate being computed based on the base motor velocity.

Abstract
Technical solutions are described for facilitating a steering system to determine a motor velocity estimate for a motor of the steering system. For example, the steering system may include a state observer module that computes a base motor velocity estimate of the motor based on a plant model of the steering system. The steering system may further include a delay compensation module that computes a delay compensated velocity estimate based on the base motor velocity estimate and an acceleration of the motor. The steering system may further include a standstill detection module that modifies the delay compensated velocity estimate in response to a handwheel of the steering system being in standstill mode.
