Abstract
A starting and generating system for a hybrid vehicle is provided. The system includes a starter-generator which transmits rotational force to the engine to start the engine when the starter-generator is operated as a motor, and is operated as a generator by receiving rotational force of the engine. A motor-generator is operated as a generator by receiving rotational force of the engine and a planetary gear mechanism connects the engine, the starter-generator, and the motor-generator to transmit rotational force between the engine, the starter-generator, and the motor-generator. Additionally, a first brake and a second brake selectively operate rotating elements, which are connected to the starter-generator and the motor-generator among the rotating elements of the planetary gear mechanism, as a fixed element. A controller specifically operates the starter-generator, the motor-generator, the first brake, and the second brake.
