tion, the suitability of the proposed method must be
studied not only for the slip suppression addressed by
this paper but also for overall driving including dur-
ing braking. Even for this issue, however, the ba-
sic framework of the proposed method can be used
as is and can also be expanded relatively easily to
form a foundation for making practical EV high per-
formance traction control systems and promoting fur-
ther progress.
