Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A system for odometer calibration for a motor vehicle is provided. The system can include a first source of speed data that provides first speed data during operation of the motor vehicle, and a second source of speed data that provides second speed data during a portion of the operation. The system can also include a vehicle speed control module that computes overall average speed data based on the first speed data and a duration of operation. The system includes a speed control module that determines an average first speed for the portion of the operation in which the second source of speed data provides the second speed, and computes an average second speed. The system can include an odometer correction control module that computes corrected odometer data based on the overall average speed data and a ratio of the average second speed to the average first speed.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A system for odometer calibration for a motor vehicle comprising: a speed sensor onboard the motor vehicle providing first speed data for the motor vehicle for a duration of operation of the motor vehicle; a global positioning system (GPS) controller onboard the motor vehicle providing GPS speed data for the motor vehicle for a portion of the duration of operation of the motor vehicle during which the GPS controller is active; a control module that compu…
