Abstract: A method and apparatus of controlling failure of a Motor-Driven Power Steering (MDPS) system may include monitoring a first torque sensor signal and a second torque sensor signal detected by a torque sensor, performing a safety mode operation in which control of the MDPS may be performed such that when a fault signal of the first torque sensor signal or the second torque sensor signal may be detected, the MDPS may be controlled to decrease a steering assist power, and performing a manual mode operation in which control of the MDPS may be performed such that when a fault signal of a remaining torque sensor signal out of the first and second torque sensor signals, which was not detected during the safety mode operation, may be detected, the MDPS may be controlled to completely lose the steering assist power.

Abstract: A failsafe steering device for a steer-by-wire system includes a main Electronic Control Unit (ECU) that detects manipulating states of a main steering wheel and a rack mechanism via a plurality of sensors, actuates a reaction motor that provides the reaction force to the main steering wheel in relation to a driver's steering force, and controls a steering motor that executes the steering by actuating the rack mechanism. The failsafe steering device further includes a battery providing power to the steering motor, a relay restraining the power supply between the battery and the steering motor, a failsafe ECU that determines the malfunction state of the main ECU and controls the relay accordingly, and a steering shaft that transmits the rotational force of a supplement steering wheel to the rack mechanism.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a control system of an auxiliary power system for a hybrid electric vehicle in which a circuit of the control system of the auxiliary power system is constructed by a digital method. The control system has a function for monitoring a battery charging state and a function for controlling an engine at a constant speed. The auxiliary power system for a hybrid electric vehicle includes an engine, a generator, a battery, and a load. The control system includes a rectifier, a first shunt circuit, a smoothing circuit, a contactor, a main control circuit portion, an engine constant-speed control portion, an auxiliary battery, DC/DC converter, a battery charge voltage monitoring portion, a control state display portion, and a second shunt circuit.
