Abstract
A dual-clutch transmission (DCT) shift sequencing system includes a shift type module that determines a shift type based on a scheduled gear and a current attained gear of a DCT. A shift sequence module determines a sequence index based on the shift type. A sequencing module generates a fork command signal and a clutch command signal based on a first sequencing table corresponding to the sequence index. A shift abort module may be included to terminate an ongoing shift and to transition to an updated shift. A fork control module controls fork shifting in the DCT based on the fork command signal. A clutch control module controls clutch engagement in the DCT based on the clutch command signal.
