SYSTEM CONTROL
The skid control ECU assembly calculates the total braking force needed based on the brake regulator pressure and brake pedal stroke when the driver depresses the brake pedal.
After calculating the required total braking force, the skid control ECU assembly sends a regenerative braking force request to the hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly. The hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly replies with the amount of actual regenerative braking (regenerative braking control value).
The hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly uses motor (MG2) to create the negative torque (deceleration force), thus carrying out regenerative braking.
The skid control ECU assembly controls the brake actuator solenoid valves and generates wheel cylinder pressure. The pressure that is generated is what remains after the actual regenerative braking control value has been subtracted from the required total braking force.
