ABSTRACT:
A vehicle traction control system comprising an electric motor and drive system for an electric vehicle, at least one driven wheel mechanically connected to the electric motor and drive system, at least one non-driven wheel, and a controller coupled to the driven wheel, the non-driven wheel and the motor for controlling the motor and drive system to provide traction control for the vehicle by sensing a positive wheel slip between the driven and non-driven wheel, determining a control command responsive to the sensed slip, applying the control command to the motor and drive system to affect positive motor drive torque from the motor when the control command is less than an acceleration request, and applying the control command to the motor and drive system to affect regenerative braking when the control command is less than an acceleration request, wherein during regenerative braking, positive tractive force is provided by inertia of the motor and drive system, wherein the single control command controls both motor torque and braking during traction control.
