Energy-efficient powertrain control of an automated and connected power-split HEV in an urban environment

Abstract

Abstract The ongoing trend toward powertrain electrification and vehicle automation enables the exploitation of additional energy saving potential through the joint optimization of the driving trajectory and the hybrid management. To tackle this complex control task within the E-COSM 2021 Benchmark Challenge, we combine a GLOSA algorithm generating a uniform speed profile with an optimization-based hybrid powertrain controller employing an equivalent consumption minimization strategy.
