Hybrid vehicles use two or more distinct power sources for propulsion, and their complex powertrain architecture requires the coordination of all the subsystems to achieve target performances in terms of fuel consumption, driveability, component life-time, exhaust emissions. Many control strategies have been presented and successfully applied, mainly based on heuristics or rules and tuned on certain reference drive cycles. To take into account that cycles are not exactly known a priori in driving routine, this paper proposes a stochastic approach for the power management problem. We focus on a series hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), which combines an internal combustion engine and an electric motor. The power demand from the driver is modeled as a Markov chain estimated on several driving cycles and used to generate scenarios in the SMPC law. Simulation results over a standard driving cycle are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed stochastic approach and compared with other deterministic approaches. date: 2010 date_type: published publication: 2010 American Control Conference publisher: IEEE pagerange: 5844 -5849 event_title: 2010 ACC event_location: 30 June- 2nd July , 2010 event_dates: Baltimore (MD) refereed: TRUE isbn: 978-1-4244-7427-1 book_title: American Control Conference official_url: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=5530504&isnumber=5530425 citation: Ripaccioli, Giulio and Bernardini, Daniele and Di Cairano, Stefano and Bemporad, Alberto and Kolmanovsky, Ilya A stochastic model predictive control approach for series hybrid electric vehicle power management.
