Powertrain Torque Control Based on Torque Observer

To reduce shock during transmission gear shift, a transmission torque feedback closed loop control system is proposed based on the powertrain system model and a torque observer. The ignition time of engine was delayed to reduce transmission output shaft torque during gear shift. In contrast to traditional control method, the closed loop control system based on torque observer can obviously reduce the transmission output shaft torque during gear shift. It can be concluded that by way of torque feedback closed loop control, transmission shift shock can be reduced.
