Abstract
A power door actuation system for a door of a vehicle is provided. The system includes a housing mounted to the door and an actuator mounted within the housing that includes an electric motor configured to output a motor force. The actuator also includes a geartrain with a geartrain input coupled to an output of the electric motor for receiving the motor force and a geartrain output for applying an output force to the door. An extendible member is configured for extension and retraction in response to actuation by the geartrain output for moving the door. The system determines the output force to compensate for external forces affecting the motion of the door, adjusts the output force determined to an adjusted output force to compensate for internal forces affecting the operation of the actuator, and controls the electric motor to move the door at the adjusted output force.
