Abstract
A method for controlling an infinitely variable transmission with an electric speed selector, including a heat engine and at least two electric machines based on calculating an instantaneous operating point of the transmission defined by a speed reference of the heat engine and a wheel torque reference. The wheel torque reference is corrected in case of saturation of the heat engine, so as to eliminate the saturation.
