Abstract

A speed sensor instability detection and correction system for use with a vehicle includes a speed sensor output variation extractor monitoring and recording change in output of a speed sensor over time. A speed sensor output variation comparison module detects speed sensor instability based on a comparison between the speed sensor output variation and a predetermined threshold. An output speed determination module selectively determines output speed in alternative ways based on whether speed sensor instability is detected.
