Abstract:
A method of controlling deceleration of a vehicle which includes the steps of sensing the speed of rotation of the output shaft and generating an output shaft speed signal. The method also includes deriving from the output shaft speed signal a deceleration signal indicative of deceleration of the vehicle, and generating in accordance with a selectively effective feedback control scheme a braking command. The method further includes using the output shaft speed signal to calculate a maximum braking power signal and modulating the braking command in dependence on the maximum braking power signal in order to limit the braking power applied in the SAHR brake. The maximum braking power signal is determined in dependence on the heat dissipating capacity of the SAHR brake and is such as to give rise to a constant or approximately constant value of braking power dissipated in the SAHR brake.

Claim (Index 5):
The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the method includes monitoring a status of the output shaft speed sensor; and wherein the method includes, upon detection of an output speed sensor fault, deselecting the feedback control scheme and operating the SAHR brake in accordance with an open loop control scheme omitting the maximum braking power signal.
