Abstract:
Systems, apparatus and methods to multiple levels of redundancy in torque steering control and propulsion control of an autonomous vehicle include determining that a powertrain unit of the autonomous vehicle is non-operational and disabling propulsion operation of the non-operational powertrain unit and implementing torque steering operation in another powertrain unit while propelling the autonomous vehicle using other powertrain units that are configured to implement torque steering operation and propulsion operation.

Claim (Index 15):
A method performed by one or more processors, the method comprising:\n determining a non-operational state of a first powertrain unit of an autonomous vehicle; determining an operational state of a second powertrain unit of the autonomous vehicle; disabling, based at least in part on the non-operational state of the first powertrain unit, at least one of a propulsion operation or a torque steering operation of the first powertrain unit; and enabling a torque steering operation of the second powertrain unit; and causing, based at least in part on the torque steering operation, the autonomous vehicle to follow a trajectory.
