航続距離を延長する電気自動車の制御システム

摘要

Recently, electric vehicles (EVs) have received substantial attention. However, EVs have several problems that prevent their widespread use. In particular, the cruising distance per charge is the most important parameter. In order to solve the problem of a short cruising range, there have been many efforts to improve battery capacity. In contrast, in this paper, range extension control systems (RECSs) are explained which can enhance the efficiency based only on control technologies. Two types of range extension control systems are introduced, and their effectiveness is confirmed by experiments.%本稿では，安全性や乗り心地を改善する電気自動車の運動制御についての文献を紹介したのち，最近の新たな研究トレンドである，一充電走行距離を延長させる制御技術の基礎的な解説を行った.特に筆者らが開発した2種類の航続距離延長制御システムの紹介を行い，その有効性はシミュレーション及び実験にて示した.
