Optimal energy management and recovery for FEV

This paper briefly describes the latest achievements of a new functional vehicle system to overcome the range anxiety problem of Fully Electric Vehicles (FEV). This is primarily achieved by integrated control and operation strategies to optimize the driving range. The main focus of these control strategies is cooperated electric drivetrain and regenerative braking system. The diverse source of information with on-board and off-board sensors, including navigation system, satellite information, car-to-car, car-to-infrastructure communication and radar and camera systems are primarily utilized to maximize the energy efficiency and correspondingly the range of the FEV.
