How to realize wheel slip control with parameters that can be measured and not relying on hardware precision is a difficult problem in vehicle traction control. From the point of view of energy transfer, this paper uses the feature that the rotational kinetic energy of the wheel increases abnormally when slipping, and proposes a wheel slip control method based on the motor energy distribution model. This method only requires the motor phase voltage, phase current and wheel speed that are easy to measure. In this paper, a complete vector control model of permanent magnet synchronous motor is established, and a PI control algorithm framework is built based on one-wheel vehicle model. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
