Abstract
An electronic power assisted steering system and method wherein vehicle operating parameters, such as steering rack rate and position, are employed to predict future current requirements of the power assisted steering system, and adjust vehicle operating parameters, such as engine and alternator systems, to assure the appropriate power supply to the power assisted steering system without voltage peaks or sags.
