Abstract:
A system and method of controlling the operation of a transmission using fuel consumption data. The system and method includes controlling the operation of a vehicle transmission which is operatively connected to an engine having operating characteristics and operatively connected to a transmission control module having access to a memory. Fuel consumption data for an engine is converted to engine efficiency loss data representative of the engine operating. A set of equations is determined to provide a pattern representative of the operating characteristics the engine. A transmission controller using the pattern determines a prospective operating condition of the transmission to provide fuel efficient operation of the engine.

Claim (Index 18):
A method of controlling the operation of a vehicle transmission including a transmission control module having access to a memory and operatively connected to an engine control module for an engine, the method comprising:\n receiving an engine control command at the transmission control module provided by the engine control module; selecting a stored engine map from the memory based on the transmitted engine control command, wherein the stored engine map represents engine efficiency loss data of the engine; determining a change to an operating condition of the transmission based on the selected stored engine map; modifying the operating condition of the transmission to an updated operating condition using the determined change to the operating condition of the transmission based on the selected stored engine map if the updated operating condition is acceptable; and not modifying the operating condition if the upgraded operating condition unacceptable.
