ACTIVE CONTROL METHOD OF ACCELERATOR PEDAL EFFORT

摘要

An active control method of accelerator pedal effort identifies a driver's habit of manipulation when a driver starts a vehicle having a pedal effort controllable accelerator pedal from a stationary state. Thus, the active control method can actively vary the accelerator pedal effort according to accelerator pedal manipulation habits of the driver, thereby improving the accelerator pedal manipulation efficiency of the driver.

主权项

1. An active control method of accelerator pedal effort, comprising:
a data storing step of storing information data about accelerator pedal manipulation habits of a driver when the driver starts a vehicle having a pedal effort controllable accelerator pedal from a stationary state; a manipulation habit change determination step of determining whether a present accelerator pedal manipulation habit of the driver for starting the vehicle has changed from a previous accelerator pedal manipulation habit by comparing the present accelerator pedal manipulation habit to the previous accelerator pedal manipulation habit based on the stored information data; and a pedal effort control step of determining a present accelerator pedal effort control value based on results of the manipulation habit change determination step, and controlling a present accelerator pedal effort using the determined present accelerator pedal effort control value.
