ABSTRACT:
A motor speed control system for a vehicle is provided. The control system includes an electric motor connected to a power coupling element for delivering electrical energy to the motor in response to a control signal. A sensor produces a current signal in response to the magnitude of the current flowing through the motor. An accelerator pedal produces a command signal in response to a desired vehicle speed. A microprocessor receives the command signal and responsively delivers a pulse width modulated control signal to the power coupling element. The control signal has a duty cycle in a range between a minimum and predefined value. Additionally, the microprocessor receives the current signal and increases the duty cycle of the control signal by a predetermined amount beyond the predefined value in response to the received current signal.
