ADVANCE COMPUTER COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS IN HYBRID VEHICLES

摘要

This paper presents an overview of advance signal processors and computer systems in present day hybrid vehicles. The increase in processing speeds of the present day digital signal processors has helped in development of hybrid cars at commercial level. Hybrid vehicles make use of computer control systems that are extremely complicated. The recent advances in processing speed and power, the invention of graphical software environments, and real-time operating systems, have contributed towards the development of these complex hybrid vehicles. The use of a high-speed 'communication bus' on the vehicle, known as CAN (Controller Area Network), play an important role. These communication buses allow the embedded controller to communicate with each another.
