Abstract: A closed loop shift control apparatus and method based on estimated torque in friction elements controls a torque transfer phase when shifting from a low gear configuration to a high gear configuration for an automatic transmission system. When pressure actuated friction elements are selectively engaged and released to establish torque flow paths in the transmission, estimates of torsional load exerted on the off-going friction element are used to predict the optimal off-going friction element release timing for achieving a consistent shift feel. The estimated torque is preferably calculated by using estimated torque signals generated as a function of speed measurements represented either the engine speed and turbine output speed or transmission output speed and wheel speed under dynamically changing conditions.

Abstract: A method of actuating a clutch includes commanding a shift, monitoring slip speed, beginning synchronization, filling to a pre-fill volume, and holding at the pre-fill volume. After slip speed reaches a trigger point, the clutch is filled to a first predicted touch point volume, which is greater than the pre-fill volume. The pre-fill volume is approximately 80 to 90 percent of the first predicted touch point volume. The method may determine slip speed derivative, and set the trigger point based thereupon. The method may monitor actual touch point volume and calculate a flow model, which is used to determine when the pre-fill volume has been reached. Filling the clutch to the pre-fill volume may begin simultaneously with commanding the shift. Pressure is generated by an auxiliary pump, which receives power from sources other than an internal combustion engine.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling a hydraulic transmission uses a clutch fill profile having a hold level that varies as a function of torque. A pressure required for an on-coming clutch to hold the gear of the off-going clutch without a flare or over-speed condition is calculated.

The pulse and hold phases for the clutch are executed at times that are constant from shift to shift and do not vary as a function of torque or slip.

Abstract: A closed loop shift control apparatus and method based on friction element load controls a torque transfer phase when shifting from a low gear configuration to a high gear configuration for an automatic transmission system. When pressure actuated friction elements are selectively engaged and released to establish torque flow paths in the transmission, measurements or estimates of torsional load exerted on the off-going friction element are used to predict the optimal off-going friction element release timing for achieving a consistent shift feel. The ideal timing to release the off-going friction element is uniquely defined when torque load exerted onto the off-going friction element becomes substantially zero. An on-coming clutch engagement process is controlled by a closed loop control based on measurements or estimates of on-coming clutch torque capacity for a constant shift feel under dynamically changing conditions.
