Abstract

Drive cycle following is important for concept comparisons when evaluating vehicle concepts, but it can be time consuming to develop good driver models that can achieve accurate following of a specific velocity profile. Here, a new approach is proposed where a simple driver model based on a PID controller is extended with an Iterative Learning Control (ILC) algorithm. Simulation results using a nonlinear vehicle and control system model show that it is possible to achieve very good cycle following in a few iterations with little tuning effort. It is also possible to utilize the repetitive behavior in the drive cycle to accelerate the convergence of the ILC algorithm even further.
