Claim 0:
1. A throttle control system for a vehicle, the throttle control system comprising:
a controller comprising at least one processor and at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium;
a throttle valve in electronic communication with the controller and movable between multiple valve positions;
an input sensor in electronic communication with the controller and configured to transmit a target position signal to the controller corresponding to a target position of the valve positions; and
a position sensor in electronic communication with the controller and configured to detect an instantaneous disposition of the throttle valve at one of the valve positions and transmit a detected position signal to the controller;
wherein the controller is configured to receive the target position signal and the detected position signal, and the processor is programmed to execute instructions stored in the at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium to:
compare the target position signal and the detected position signal to the instructions in the at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium;
select an output signal corresponding to the target position signal, the detected position signal, and an estimated velocity;
transmit the output signal to the throttle valve;
apply a first fuzzy control acceleration based on the output signal to the throttle valve to move the throttle valve toward the target position;
apply a brake deceleration based on the output signal to the throttle valve to decelerate the movement of the throttle valve toward the target position;
apply a second fuzzy control acceleration based on the output signal to the throttle valve to accelerate the movement of the throttle valve toward the target position, wherein the position sensor is configured to detect an instantaneous disposition of the throttle valve at one of the valve positions and transmit a second detected position signal to the controller of the instantaneous disposition of the throttle valve at one of the valve positions after the second fuzzy control acceleration;
compare the target position signal and the second detected position signal to the instructions in the at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium;
select a second output signal corresponding to the target position signal, the second detected position signal, and an estimated velocity;
transmit the second output signal to the throttle valve; and
apply a jump control acceleration based on the second output signal to the throttle valve to accelerate the movement of the throttle valve toward the target position.
