Abrégé

Method for driving a current signal in an electric motor of a pedal-assisted bicycle, performed by generating an operating signal, representative of a time evolution of the instantaneous speed and/or instantaneous acceleration of the bicycle. The operating signal is filtered to obtain a filtered signal (F) identifying changes in time of instantaneous velocity and/or instantaneous acceleration at the filtering frequency alone. The filtered signal (F) is then processed to obtain an approximate signal (A) that is representative of a cyclist's effort and according to which a driving signal is generated for the electric motor.

Abrégé

A method for identifying the transmission ratio selected by a cyclist while using a bicycle comprising a transmission defining a plurality of different transmission ratios. The method is performed by measuring at least one bicycle usage magnitude, which is used to generate an operational signal representative of a time evolution of an instantaneous speed and/or instantaneous acceleration of the bicycle. For each possible transmission ratio, the operational signal is filtered at a frequency equal to twice the instantaneous speed multiplied by the transmission ratio, so as to generate a respective plurality of independent filtered signals (F). The transmission ratio in use is then identified as the transmission ratio that generates the filtered signal (F) with the highest instantaneous value.
