Title: Parameter Co-optimization for Hybrid Electric Vehicles Powertrain System Leveraging V2V/V2I Information

Conference ·

A parameter tuning based co-optimization scheme for the hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) powertrain system is designed to maximize the fuel efficiency. The optimization controlled input parameters are chosen based on sensitivity study of powertrain control parameters. The vehicle to vehicle (V2V) and vehicle to infrastructure information is another optimization input, to have the driving conditions taking in to considerations for maximizing fuel efficiency. The catalyst temperature is considered as an additional constraint as the speed to reach light-off temperature should not decrease during optimized operation. Neural network is used to develop a simplified yet equivalent model for the optimization problem model. We have achieved an average of 9.22% fuel savings for a random driving cycle on a Toyota Prius test model.
