US Patent 11713077 Systems and methods for electric track vehicle control

Systems and methods for track vehicle control are provided. In one embodiment, a method comprises: receiving a steering control signal; inputting a first rotation signal from a first encoder representing a rotational frequency and phase of a first electric motor coupled to a first continuous track mechanism; inputting a second rotation signal from a second encoder representing a rotational frequency and phase of a second electric motor coupled to a second continuous track mechanism; and outputting motor control signals to a first and second motor controllers in response to the steering control signal and differences between the rotational frequency and phase for the first electric motor and the rotational frequency and phase for the second electric motor, wherein the first motor controller is coupled to the first electric motor and the second motor controller is coupled to the second electric motor.
