Adaptive driving behavior adjusting method for electric vehicle
The invention provides an adaptive driving behavior adjusting method for an electric vehicle, intended for solving the problem that existing energy recovery approaches fail to fully satisfy endurance mileage extending requirements of electric vehicles and the problem that a charging or battery-swapping time cannot be accurately determined. The method comprises the steps of: estimating an endurance mileage of the electric vehicle; acquiring information of a location of the nearest charging pile or a destination by means of a GPS; acquiring information of a lane in which the electric vehicle is currently traveling by means of the GPS; and the electric vehicle selectively enters a forced adaptive driving mode or an optional adaptive driving mode, based on endurance mileage of the electric vehicle, the information of the location of the charging pile or the destination and the information of the lane. By means of the method, the electric vehicle can be prevented from roadside breakdown or failing to arrive at the destination due to failure to get recharged in time, and a driver can be warned to extend the endurance mileage in time when feasible, so that not only can electric energy be saved, thereby increasing the endurance mileage, but also breakdown due to power shortage can be prevented and the driving experience can be improved.
1. An adaptive driving behavior adjusting method for an electric vehicle, which is performed by an engine control unit (ECU) of the vehicle, comprising the steps of:
estimating an endurance mileage of the electric vehicle by the ECU;
acquiring information of a location of the nearest charging pile or a destination through a navigation positioning system or real traffic reports;
acquiring information of a lane in which the electric vehicle is currently traveling through the navigation positioning system or real traffic reports; and
the electric vehicle to selectively entering a forced adaptive driving mode or an optional adaptive driving mode, based on the endurance mileage of the electric vehicle, the information of the location of the charging pile or the destination and the information of the lane,
wherein when the distance between the electric vehicle and the charging pile or the destination is greater than the endurance mileage but the difference therebetween is less than an upper threshold distance, or when the distance between the electric vehicle and the charging pile or the destination is less than the endurance mileage but the difference therebetween reaches a lower threshold distance, the electric vehicle enters the forced adaptive driving mode.
2. The adaptive driving behavior adjusting method according to claim 1 , wherein the step of estimating an endurance mileage of the electric vehicle further comprises:
acquiring state of charge of the electric vehicle;
acquiring an actual vehicle speed of the electric vehicle;
acquiring a load state of the electric vehicle;
acquiring terrain of a current road; and
estimating the endurance mileage of the electric vehicle based on the state of charge, the actual vehicle speed, the load state and the terrain of the current road.
3. The adaptive driving behavior adjusting method according to claim 2 , wherein the information of the lane includes an average vehicle speed, the terrain, and a speed limit, and/or the load state includes an air conditioning state and a low-voltage load state.
4. The adaptive driving behavior adjusting method according to claim 3 , wherein when the state of charge of the electric vehicle is less than threshold state of charge and the average vehicle speed is greater than a threshold vehicle speed, the electric vehicle enters the optional adaptive driving mode.
5. The adaptive driving behavior adjusting method according to claim 4 , wherein when the conditions for entering the forced adaptive driving mode and for entering the optional adaptive driving mode are simultaneously satisfied, the electric vehicle preferentially enters the forced adaptive driving mode.
6. The adaptive driving behavior adjusting method according to claim 5 , wherein the threshold vehicle speed is 40 KM/hour; and/or the lower threshold distance is from 10 to 30 KM.
7. The adaptive driving behavior adjusting method according to claim 6 , wherein when the electric vehicle enters the forced adaptive driving mode while satisfying the condition for the optional adaptive driving mode, the electric vehicle cruises at a constant speed of 40 KM/hour with hazard warning flashers turned on.
8. The adaptive driving behavior adjusting method according to claim 7 , wherein when the electric vehicle enters the forced adaptive driving mode but does not satisfy the condition for the optional adaptive driving mode, the electric vehicle travels at the average vehicle speed with the hazard warning flashers turned on.
9. The adaptive driving behavior adjusting method according to claim 8 , wherein when the electric vehicle enters the optional adaptive driving mode, the electric vehicle prompts the driver to confirm whether to enter the optional adaptive driving mode in order to increase the endurance mileage.
