doi:10.3901/JME.2015.16.011

Abstract

Abstract: Focusing on the safety and fuel economy improvement of hybrid electric vehicle(HEV)during the adaptive cruise control, a predictive HEV cruise control strategy is proposed based on nonlinear model predictive control method. Considering the nonlinearities of engine fuel efficiency and motor electricity efficiency, the control architecture combines offline predictive optimization of tracking ability and fuel efficiency, and online integration based on offline results is designed. Considering the nonlinearities and discrete characteristics of vehicle dynamics, a position based hybrid longitudinal inter-vehicle dynamics model is developed. Based on the terminal constraints of stable tracking, a coordinated cost function of tracking safety and fuel economy is formulated. Utilizing the nonlinear model predictive control method, the multi-objective optimization control algorithm is developed. To validate the comprehensive performances and advantages of proposed algorithm, both simulation and experiments are implemented. Simulation and experiment results show that, the proposed algorithm has better integrated performances of tracking ability and fuel economy compared with conventional algorithms.
