AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In hybrid electric vehicles, the driver's driving characteristics and driving conditions cause the actual SOC to deviate from the central SOC, resulting in reduced system efficiency, decreased fuel efficiency, and insufficient battery durability when used in the low SOC region.

Method used

The battery electrical characteristics are measured by the sensor unit, the capacity limit rate is set by the input unit, the control unit selectively changes the battery charging or discharging area according to the limit rate, outputs virtual setting SOC information, limits the battery usage area to optimize durability performance, and utilizes the limited remaining capacity in emergency driving mode.

Benefits of technology

It effectively extends battery life, improves battery durability and fuel efficiency, and ensures long-distance driving in emergency driving mode.
