  • Publication number: 20240155670
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of performing data transmissions in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) INACTIVE state by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system. Especially, the method includes the steps of generating at least one Small Data Transmission (SDT) data unit that can be transmitted in RRC INACTIVE state; triggering a SDT procedure for transmitting the at least one SDT data unit in RRC INACTIVE state; generating a non-SDT data unit that cannot be transmitted in RRC_INACTIVE during the SDT procedure; generating an indication message informing that there is the non-SDT data unit, based on an uplink grant related to the SDT procedure for transmitting the indication message being available; and transmitting the indication message via a Dedicated Control Channel (DCCH) during the SDT procedure to a network.

  • Patent number: 10144415
    Abstract: A limp home mode drive method and system for a hybrid vehicle are provided. The method includes prohibiting an operation of an overdrive brake that is included in a transmission for the hybrid vehicle and is driven by an electric oil pump when the hybrid vehicle is being driven and the electric oil pump is not operated. A speed of the hybrid vehicle is then limited based on a heat value of a rotation driver included in the transmission and a torque of a drive motor driving the transmission is limited based on a temperature of the drive motor. A mechanical oil pump included in the hybrid vehicle is operated to enable limp home driving of the hybrid vehicle.

  • Patent number: 9925859
    Abstract: A control apparatus of a hybrid vehicle having an electric oil pump includes an engine clutch selectively engaging an engine and a drive motor; an automatic transmission changing a power generated from the engine by engagement and releasing of a friction element into a required torque depending on a speed; a hydraulic pressure sensor sensing an oil pressure supplied to the engine clutch; a temperature sensor sensing an oil temperature discharged from the electric oil pump; a hybrid control unit (HCU) controlling the electric oil pump to selectively engage the engine clutch depending on a driving state; and a transmission control unit (TCU) controlling the electric oil pump to supply transmission control pressure to the friction element. The electric oil pump includes an oil motor and a pump to supply the operating hydraulic pressure to the engine clutch and the friction element.

  • Patent number: 9180863
    Abstract: An oil pump system and method of a hybrid vehicle stably supplies an operating hydraulic pressure to an automatic transmission using only an electric oil pump. The oil pump system of the hybrid vehicle, which supplies an operating hydraulic pressure to an automatic transmission of the hybrid vehicle, includes: an automatic transmission control unit controlling operation of the automatic transmission; an electric oil pump pumping oil to generate an operating hydraulic pressure which is to be supplied to the automatic transmission; and an oil pump control unit receiving information on a state of the automatic transmission from the automatic transmission control unit and controlling operation of the electric oil pump. The operating hydraulic pressure supplied to the automatic transmission may be generated solely through the electric oil pump which is electrically operated.

  • Patent number: 9127667
    Abstract: A device for controlling fail-safe of a hybrid vehicle capable of providing fail-safe running by controlling drive of an electric oil pump with a generation voltage of a hybrid starter and generator (HSG) or a drive motor when a main relay may be cutoff due to failure of a high voltage component may include a method having determining whether the hybrid vehicle proceeds to a fail-safe mode due to a main relay opened by failure of a high voltage component during running of the hybrid vehicle or not, detecting a generation voltage of an HSG or a drive motor when the proceeding to the fail-safe mode may be determined, and generating oil pressure by controlling driving of an electric oil pump according to a generation amount of the HSG or the drive motor in running in the fail-safe mode or in a stop state.
