Gear selection method for an automatic transmission for a traction phase after a coasting phase of a motor vehicle
First Claim
1. A gear selection method for an automatic transmission for a traction phase (Z2) after a coasting phase (S) of a motor vehicle, comprising the steps of;
- forming, with a computational device, a sliding average value of a rotational speed level (n) and/or of a traction force level (Fx) in a traction phase (Z1) before the coasting phase (S) depending on a particular velocity (v) and a particular gradient (ST),storing, in a memory device, the sliding average value of a rotational speed level (n) and/or of a traction force level (Fx), anddefining, with a defining device, at least one gear choice of the automatic transmission for the traction phase (Z2) after the coasting phase (S) taking into consideration the sliding average value,wherein a driver'"'"'s rotational speed requirement (Wn) is defined taking into consideration the sliding average value of the rotational speed level (n) for a current velocity (v′
) and a current gradient (ST′
) at the end of the coasting phase (S) and a corresponding first and second gear choice are defined on the basis thereof,wherein the first gear choice corresponds to a rotational speed requirement (Wn) above the value determined by the sliding average, andwherein the second gear choice corresponds to a rotational speed requirement (Wn) below the value determined by the sliding average.

Abstract
Disclosed herein is a gear selection method and device for an automatic transmission for a traction phase (Z2) after a coasting phase (S) of a motor vehicle. According to the method, in a traction phase (Z1) before the coasting phase (S), a sliding average value of the rotational speed level (n) and/or of the traction force level (Fx) is formed depending on the particular velocity (v) and particular gradient (ST) and is taken into consideration for defining at least one gear choice of the automatic transmission for the traction phase (Z2) after the particular coasting phase (S).
