Methods for automated calibration and adaption of a gearshift controller (39) are disclosed. In one aspect, the method automates calibration a gearshift controller (39) for controlling a sequence of gearshifts in either a stepped automatic transmission equipped with at least one speed sensor mounted on a dynamometer (42) or an automotive vehicle mounted on a dynamometer (42), where the dynamometer (42) is electronically controlled by a dynamometer controller (43). Each gearshift in the sequence includes a first phase, a second phase, . . . and an Nth phase. The gearshift controller (39) includes (initial values of) a first phase control parameters set, a second phase control parameters set, . . . and an Nth phase control parameters set for each gearshift in the sequence that are updated using a first phase learning controller, a second phase learning controller, . . . and an N*11 phase learning controller respectively.
A method for automated calibration of a gearshift controller (39) for controlling a sequence of gearshifts in either a stepped automatic transmission (40) equipped with at least one speed sensor (3, 9, 17, 20) mounted on a dynamometer (42) or an automotive vehicle mounted on a dynamometer (42), where the dynamometer (42) is electronically controlled by a dynamometer controller (43), each gearshift in the sequence includes a first phase, a second phase, . . . and an Nth phase, and the gearshift controller (39) includes (initial values of) a first phase control parameters set, a second phase control parameters set, . . . and an Nth phase control parameters set for each gearshift in the sequence that are updated using a first phase learning controller, a second phase learning controller, . . . and an Nth phase learning controller respectively, the method comprising:
A method for adapting a gearshift controller (39) for controlling a gearshift during the operation of an automotive vehicle with a stepped automatic transmission (40) including at least one speed sensor (3, 9, 17, 20), the gearshift requiring adaptation includes a first phase, a second phase, . . . and an Nth phase, and the gearshift controller (39) includes (initial values of) a first phase control parameters set, a second phase control parameters set, . . . and an Nth phase control parameters set for the gearshift that are updated during vehicle operation using a first, a second, . . . and an Nth phase learning controllers included in a powertrain controller (41) respectively, the method comprising:
