Abstract

This paper presents our research in vehicle energy optimization for a low-cost HEV power system that only allows the control of engine on/off and driving at three different speed limits. We present algorithms for modeling vehicle energy flow and optimization and machine learning of optimal control settings generated by Dynamic Programming on real-world drive cycles, and an intelligent energy controller designed for online energy control. Experimental results show the intelligent controller has the capability of 11% fuel saving.
