Abstract
An engine control system comprises a pedal torque request module, a filtering module, a selection module, and an arbitration module. The pedal torque request module determines a first pedal torque request at a first time and determines a second pedal torque request at a second time. The first time is before the second time. The filtering module determines a filtered pedal torque request based on the first pedal torque request, the second pedal torque request, and a filter coefficient. The selection module selects one of the second pedal torque request and the filtered pedal torque request. The arbitration module arbitrates between at least one driver torque request and the selected one of the second pedal torque request and the filtered pedal torque request, outputs a raw driver request based on a result of the arbitration, and controls at least one engine actuator based on the raw driver request.
