  • System and method for updating a speed calibration of a work vehicle
    Patent number: 10392016
    Abstract: A controller is configured to receive a first signal indicative of a spatial locating speed or a spatial locating position for determining the spatial locating speed. The controller is configured to determine a sensed speed of the work vehicle based on a calibration and a second signal indicative of a rotational rate of a wheel of the work vehicle, and to determine whether a difference between the sensed speed and the spatial locating speed exceeds a calibration threshold. In response to determining that the difference exceeds the calibration threshold, the controller is configured to update the calibration such that the sensed speed is substantially equal to the spatial locating speed, and update the sensed speed based on the updated calibration and the second signal. Further, the controller is configured to instruct a speed control system to limit a ground speed of the work vehicle based on the sensed speed.
