Abstract
A braking distribution system is provided for system with a front regenerative braking system and a rear regenerative braking system. The system comprises a brake controller coupled to the front regenerative braking system and the rear regenerative braking system, and the brake controller is configured to receive a braking request, a first amount of braking that is available from the front regenerative braking system, and a second amount of braking that is available from the rear regenerative braking system. The controller is also configured to calculate a front base braking based at least in part on the braking request and a front base braking distribution, calculate a rear base braking based at least in part on the braking request and a rear base braking distribution, and determine a front regenerative braking request and a rear regenerative braking request based on the first amount and the second amount.
