Abstract

Disclosed are an electronic brake system and a control method thereof. The electronic brake system includes a first inner valve for transmitting hydraulic pressure to a first hydraulic circuit; a second inner valve for transmitting hydraulic pressure to a second hydraulic circuit; a first outer valve for discharging hydraulic pressure from the first hydraulic circuit; a second outer valve for discharging hydraulic pressure from the second hydraulic circuit; and an electronic control unit for generating a phase delay control signal for one inner valve when a current control signal is applied to the first inner valve and the second inner valve, and generating a phase delay control signal for one outer valve when a current control signal is applied to the first outer valve and the second outer valve.

Claims (25)

1. An electronic brake system comprising:

a first inner valve for transmitting hydraulic pressure to a first hydraulic circuit;

a second inner valve for transmitting hydraulic pressure to a second hydraulic circuit;

a first outer valve for discharging hydraulic pressure from the first hydraulic circuit;

a second outer valve for discharging hydraulic pressure from the second hydraulic circuit; and

an electronic control unit for generating a phase delay control signal for one inner valve when a current control signal is applied to the first inner valve and the second inner valve, and generating a phase delay control signal for one outer valve when a current control signal is applied to the first outer valve and the second outer valve.

2. The electronic brake system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the current control signal includes a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) control signal.

3. The electronic brake system according to claim 1 ,

wherein when the phase delay control signal is generated for the one inner valve, the electronic control unit calculates the phase delay control signal so that the superimposed currents of the current control signal applied to the first inner valve and the current control signal applied to the second inner valve are canceled.

4. The electronic brake system according to claim 3 ,

wherein the electronic control unit generates a 180-degree phase delay control signal for the one inner valve.

5. The electronic brake system according to claim 1 ,

wherein when the phase delay control signal is generated for the one outer valve, the electronic control unit calculates the phase delay control signal so that the superimposed currents of the current control signal applied to the first outer valve and the current control signal applied to the second outer valve are canceled.

6. The electronic brake system according to claim 5 ,

wherein the electronic control unit generates a 180-degree phase delay control signal for the one outer valve.

7. A method of controlling an electronic brake system comprising: a first inner valve for transmitting hydraulic pressure to a first hydraulic circuit; a second inner valve for transmitting hydraulic pressure to a second hydraulic circuit; a first outer valve for discharging hydraulic pressure from the first hydraulic circuit; and a second outer valve for discharging hydraulic pressure from the second hydraulic circuit, which comprises:

generating a phase delay control signal for one inner valve when a current control signal is applied to the first inner valve and the second inner valve; and

generating a phase delay control signal for one outer valve when a current control signal is applied to the first outer valve and the second outer valve.

8. The method of controlling an electronic brake system according to claim 7 ,

wherein the current control signal includes a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) control signal.

9. The method of controlling an electronic brake system according to claim 7 ,

wherein generating a phase delay control signal for one inner valve when a current control signal is applied to the first inner valve and the second inner valve generates a 180-degree phase delay control signal for the one inner valve.

10. The method of controlling an electronic brake system according to claim 7 ,

wherein generating a phase delay control signal for one outer valve when a current control signal is applied to the first outer valve and the second outer valve generates a 180-degree phase delay control signal for the one outer valve.
