  • Patent number: 12072024
    Abstract: A method of controlling engine torque according to transmission hydraulic pressure is performed by an engine torque control system of a vehicle. The method includes connecting an engine torque converter to an engine and an automatic transmission of the vehicle, calculating a required turbine torque after confirming an engine torque control condition, deriving and storing a value of turbine torque factor learning through turbine torque factor learning according to shift type and shift time, converting the stored value of turbine torque factor learning into an engine torque control value, and requesting the engine torque control value to be applied to engine output, by an engine torque controller during shifting of the automatic transmission, so that a new turbine torque calculation is performed through a hydraulic pressure reference at the beginning of physical shifting, thereby preventing a shift shock and transmission damage caused by unreasonably excessive or insufficient engine torque.

  • Patent number: 11962798
    Abstract: A video decoding apparatus decodes a sequence of one or more pictures in the unit of blocks which are split from each picture. The apparatus comprising a decoder configured to reconstruct, from a bitstream, a current motion vector difference of the current block among the blocks which belong to the sequence of one or more pictures, and an image decoder configured to predict and decode the current block using the motion vector of the current block. When the current motion vector difference of the current block is zero, the resolution of the current motion vector difference of the current block is set to the ΒΌ pixel precision without the information on the motion vector resolution extracted.

  • Patent number: 11872990
    Abstract: A method and system for controlling clutch friction elements of an automatic transmission is provided. The method includes retrieving information about shift clutches from a data storage unit and acquiring information required to predict a temperature of a friction element for each shift clutch, deriving a predicted temperature value of a friction element for each shift clutch by using the information about the shift clutches and the information required to predict the temperature of the friction element, predicting whether or not overheating occurs for each shift clutch by comparing the derived predicted temperature value of the friction element for each shift clutch with an allowable temperature set for each shift clutch, and determining a target shift stage while avoiding the overheating clutch with a predicted temperature value exceeding the allowable temperature, through switching to an avoidance shift mode.
