Adaptive control system for cyclic excavation machine
First Claim
1. A control system for a powertrain of a machine, comprising:
- a first sensor configured to generate a first signal indicative of an actual speed of the powertrain;
a second sensor configured to venerate a second signal indicative of at least one of a force bearing on the machine and a position of an implement of the machine;
an interface device configured to generate a third signal indicative of a desired speed of the powertrain; and
a controller in communication with the first sensor, the second sensor, and the interface device, the controller being configured to;
determine a closed-loop gain value based on a difference between the actual speed and the desired speed;
classify a current operation of the machine as one of a plurality of predetermined operations of a duty cycle based on the second signal;
determine an open-loop gain value based on classification of the current operation of the machine; and
control fueling of the machine based on a superposition of the closed-loop gain value and the open-loop gain value.

Abstract
A control system is disclosed for use with a powertrain of a machine. The control system may have a first sensor configured to generate a first signal indicative of an actual speed, a second sensor configured to generate second signal indicative of at least one of a force bearing on the machine and a position of an implement, and an interface device configured to generate a third signal indicative of a desired speed. The control system may also have a controller configured to determine a closed-loop gain value based on a difference between the actual and desired speeds, to classify a current operation of the machine based on the second signal, and to determine an open-loop gain value based on classification of the current operation. The controller may also be configured to control fueling of the machine based on a superposition of the closed-loop gain value and the open-loop gain value.
