  • Systems and methods for active damping in a steer-by-wire handwheel actuator system
    Patent number: 12700814
    Abstract: A system for active damping in a steering system includes a multi-phase inverter circuit associated with a motor. The multi-phase inverter circuit includes a power circuit and at least one bipolar junction transistor. The system also includes a processor, and a memory. The memory includes instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: receive a torque signal corresponding to a torque applied to a handwheel; generate a damping signal based on the torque signal; and selectively control current flow to the at least one bipolar junction transistor based on the damping signal.
    Type: Grant
