    Abstract: A method for a steer by wire steering system. The method includes determining a difference between a commanded steering ratio and an achieved steering ratio and determining whether the difference between the commanded steering ratio and the achieved steering ratio is greater than a threshold. The method also includes, in response to a determination that the difference between the commanded steering ratio and the achieved steering ratio is greater than the threshold, adjusting the commanded steering ratio to be equal to the achieved steering ratio. The method also includes, in response to a determination that the difference between the commanded steering ratio and the achieved steering ratio is greater than the threshold, selectively adjusting a bandwidth of a filter based on at least one vehicle characteristic of an associated vehicle and adjusting, using the filter, the commanded steering ratio to be equal to a desired steering ratio.

    Abstract: A method for passive damping in a steer-by-wire handwheel actuator includes selecting a number of windings for a motor of a handwheel actuator; shorting a subset of windings of the number of windings, each winding of the subset of windings being disposed at an obtuse angle from each other winding of the subset of windings; determining a resistance value for the motor; selectively adjusting the resistance value based on a number of windings associated with the subset of windings; and providing, in series with the subset of windings, at least one metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) configured to: vary the resistance associated with the subset of windings based on a vehicle speed; and tune a damping characteristic associated with the handwheel actuator.

    Abstract: A current reference generator to control a brushless motor in a motor control system is provided. The current reference generator includes a locate peak torque module that determines a maximum possible torque and a direct axis current that corresponds to the maximum possible torque based on motor parameters, a maximum voltage, a motor velocity of the brushless motor, and a sign of a torque command. A limit torque command module limits the torque command to the maximum possible torque. A locate minimum current module determines a value of the direct axis current that results in a minimum motor current. A solve current reference module generates a reference vector that satisfies the torque command as limited by the direct axis current that corresponds to the maximum possible torque and the direct axis current that results in the minimum motor current.

    Abstract: A method of estimating a motor velocity in an electric power steering system that includes a motor is provided. The method generates motor position data by sampling an original motor position signal at an irregular sampling rate. The method estimates a motor velocity by performing a regression analysis on the motor position data.
