Description

The AMT Controller block implements an automated manual transmission (AMT) controller. You can specify the clutch open, close, and synchronization timing parameters. The block determines the clutch commands using integrator-based timers and latching logic that is based on the specified timing parameters and gear request.

Examples

GearReq

Gear number request

Greq
GearEngd

Nominal gear commanded by the controller

Go
Cltch

Clutch pressure command for gears, between 0 and 1

NA

Effective gear for shifting. The block uses this signal for the smooth application of inertial, efficiency, gear ratio, and damping parameters.

Clutch pressure command, between 0 and 1.

Parameters

expand all

Initial gear to engage, Go.

Time required to engage and disengage the clutch during shift events, tc, in s.

Time required for gear selection and synchronization, ts, in s.

Sample period, dt, in s.

Selecting this parameter initially locks the clutch.

Selecting this parameter initially locks the synchronizer.
