Vehicle control system and method of controlling a vehicle system

摘要

A vehicle control system includes a steering mechanism adapted to be operatively connected to associated wheels of a vehicle. A position sensor is operatively connected to the steering mechanism to generate a signal representative of a position of the steering mechanism. A filter device receives the steering position signal and generates a filtered output. The electronic control unit is operable to generate a control signal based at least in part upon the filtered steering position signal. A vehicle control subsystem is in communication with the electronic control unit and is responsive to the control signal. A vehicle system is controlled by monitoring the position of a steering mechanism of a vehicle, determining a rate of change of the position of the steering mechanism, filtering the rate of change, comparing the filtered rate of change to a threshold value, and controlling a vehicle system based upon the comparison.
