Abstract
A control device, system and method that distribute a braking request to at least one of a powertrain and a brake based on a braking request by driver operation and a braking force that is generable by the power train. When the braking request is larger than the braking force that is generable by the powertrain, the device, system and method instruct a controller of the powertrain to generate the braking force that is generable by the powertrain, and to instruct a controller of the brake to generate a braking force corresponding to a difference between the braking request and the braking force that is generable by the powertrain.
Claims5
A control device mounted on a vehicle, the control device comprising one or more processors configured to:
- distribute a braking request to at least one of a powertrain and a brake based on the braking request by driver operation and braking force that is generable by the powertrain,
- wherein, when the braking request is larger than the braking force that is generable by the powertrain, the one or more processors are further configured to instruct a controller of the powertrain to generate the braking force that is generable by the powertrain, and to instruct a controller of the brake to generate a braking force corresponding to a difference between the braking request and the braking force that is generable by the powertrain.
A method executed by a computer of a manager mounted on a vehicle, the method comprising:
- distributing a braking request to at least one of a powertrain and a brake based on the braking request by driver operation and braking force that is generable by the powertrain,
- wherein, when the braking request is larger than the braking force that is generable by the powertrain, the method further includes instructing a controller of the powertrain to generate the braking force that is generable by the powertrain, and instructing a controller of the brake to generate a braking force corresponding to a difference between the braking request and the braking force that is generable by the powertrain.
A system mounted on a vehicle, the system comprising a communication device configured to receive, from a manager, a braking request,
- wherein the manager comprises one or more processors configured to:
- distribute the braking request to at least one of a powertrain and a brake based on the braking request by driver operation and braking force that is generable by the powertrain,
- wherein, when the braking request is larger than the braking force that is generable by the powertrain, the one or more processors are further configured to instruct a controller of the powertrain to generate the braking force that is generable by the powertrain, and to instruct a controller of the brake to generate a braking force corresponding to a difference between the braking request and the braking force that is generable by the powertrain.
