PREDICTIVE ROAD SPEED GOVERNOR

Engine control modules as well as methods and systems implementable in a vehicle are disclosed, in which the engine control module includes a processing unit operative to control a target vehicle speed. The processing unit receives current status information and lookahead information regarding a route to be taken by the vehicle, performs a lookahead power requirement calculation based on the current status information and the lookahead information to determine an event, calculates a plurality of offsets with respect to an isochronous speed of the vehicle based on the determined event, and sets a target vehicle speed curve by applying the plurality of offsets to the isochroous speed.
