Abstract
A method for generating velocity profiles for elevator car doors includes a step of generating a straight line velocity versus time profile. The profile is then passed through a low pass finite impulse response filter to smooth the transition between different velocity and acceleration values and to limit certain undesired frequencies. The filtered profile can be integrated into a position versus time profile and stored in the RAM of a control system to be used for subsequent operations.
