Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, arbitrating velocity signals derived from information from a first sensor and a second sensor, estimating a ratio between an actual tire radius and an expected tire radius, and generating a fused velocity estimate based on an arbitrated signal calculated during the arbitrating step and an estimated ratio calculated during the estimating step.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method, comprising: receiving velocity signals from at least a first sensor and a second sensor; arbitrating the velocity signals; estimating a ratio between an actual tire radius and an expected tire radius; generating a fused velocity estimate based on an arbitrated signal calculated during the arbitrating step and an estimated ratio calculated during the estimating step; and controlling a vehicle using the fused velocity estimate.…
