Distribution Method of Front/Rear Wheel Side-Slip Angles and Left/Right Motor Torques for Range Extension Control System of Electric Vehicle on Curving Road

摘要

In this paper, the range extension control system based on least square method is proposed for electric vehicles with in-wheel motors and front active steering. This proposed method distributes front and rear wheel side-slip angles and driving force difference between left and right motors from lateral force and yaw-moment. The proposed method enables to reduce driving resistance generated from front steering angle. In fact, the mileage per charge is extended up to 200 m/kWh. Simulations and experiments are carried out to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method.
