Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of wireless power transmission for electric vehicles, and particularly relates to a wireless charging control system for electric vehicles and a method thereof based on a composite disturbance rejection controller. BACKGROUND

[0002] As an important part of future transportation, electric vehicles have shown remarkable competitiveness in terms of zero tailpipe emissions, no fossil fuel consumption, efficient energy utilization, easy maintenance, and quiet and comfortable driving experience, bringing new development prospects to the automotive industry. However, electric vehicles have been facing key challenges in long-distance travel, i.e., the limitation of range. Traditional battery charging methods have many problems, including high construction cost of charging infrastructure, limited coverage of charging stations, long charging time, and risk of electric shock during charging, which limit the widespread application of electric vehicles, especially in situations requiring long-distance travel or long-distance driving. With the continuous progress of technology, wireless charging technology for electric vehicles is booming and attracting much attention. Among them, dynamic wireless charging technology has attracted widespread attention because it can continuously provide power to electric vehicles during driving. This technology uses inductors and energy transmitters on the road to transmit power to electric vehicles without the need for plugs or parking charging. This not only solves the problem of charging time, but also improves the convenience of using electric vehicles, providing more travel options for drivers. In summary, dynamic wireless charging technology represents a key direction for the future development of electric vehicles. It is expected to eliminate the range limitation and make electric vehicles more suitable for various travel needs, providing more possibilities for sustainable travel.

[0003] During the driving process of an electric vehicle, the coupling coefficient of the energy transmitting and receiving coils changes significantly with the movement of the vehicle, resulting in fluctuations in the output voltage of the system. Although there are currently various control techniques for controlling the output voltage of the electric vehicle wireless charging system, these existing techniques still have the following problems:

[0004] First, existing wireless charging control methods fail to effectively suppress output voltage fluctuations during dynamic wireless charging. These methods mainly rely on feedback control of measured signals, however, feedback control cannot suppress disturbances in a timely and complete manner. In dynamic wireless charging systems, the coupling coefficient of the transmitting and receiving coils often changes widely, and external disturbances increase in a strong magnetic field environment, which poses a great challenge to the control of the output voltage of the system.

[0005] Second, the existing control method of electric vehicle wireless charging system needs to establish a clear mathematical model and prior information, but it takes a lot of work and time cost to establish these clear mathematical models. In addition, these model information will also change due to factors such as parameter drift, parasitic resistance and external disturbance. Therefore, it is of great significance to design a single sensor model-free control method that does not rely on model prior information to improve the control performance of wireless charging system.

[0006] Third, the output voltage control method of the existing electric vehicle dynamic wireless charging system usually only relies on one of the feedback control or feedforward control strategies. These single control strategies do not fully utilize the system state, especially in the case of large-scale and continuous changes in state information and disturbance information in dynamic wireless charging system. Therefore, designing a composite disturbance rejection controller based on feedback suppression and feedforward compensation will greatly improve the output regulation ability of dynamic wireless charging system. SUMMARY

[0007] In order to overcome the technical difficulties faced by the current electric vehicle wireless charging system control method, the present application aims to build a model-free voltage controller for electric vehicle wireless charging system. The controller not only realizes the accurate control of the output voltage of the wireless charging system, but also effectively suppresses the fluctuation of the output voltage of the dynamic wireless charging system. It is worth noting that the controller does not need to establish a detailed mathematical model of the system, nor does it need additional sensors, thereby greatly reducing the implementation cost. By using the present application, the performance of electric vehicle wireless charging in complex environment is significantly improved.

[0058] The wireless charging control method for electric vehicles based on a composite disturbance rejection controller includes the following steps:

[0059] First, a model-free extended state observer, a non-smooth dynamic sliding surface, and a composite disturbance rejection control law are constructed. The measured output voltage of the electric vehicle wireless charging system serves as the input signal of the model-free extended state observer. The control signal output by the composite disturbance rejection control law acts on the electric vehicle wireless charging system and also serves as the input signal of the model-free extended state observer and the non-smooth dynamic sliding surface. The output signal of the model-free extended state observer serves as the input signal of the non-smooth dynamic sliding surface and the composite disturbance rejection control law. The output signal of the non-smooth dynamic sliding surface also serves as the input signal of the composite disturbance rejection control law, thereby realizing the wireless charging control of the electric vehicle.

[0060] The experimental results are presented in Figures 2 to 6 middle. Figure 2 a, Figure 2 b, Figure 2 c and Figure 2 The figures d illustrate the output voltage step response during static wireless charging under the control of four methods: Proportional Integral-Derivative (PID) control with only feedback suppression, conventional Sliding Mode Control (SMC) control with only feedback suppression, conventional Active Disturbance Rejection Control (ADRC) control with only feedforward compensation, and the composite disturbance rejection control (CADC) method proposed in this invention. The relative positions of the wireless charging transmitting and receiving coils remain stationary. In this scenario, the desired output voltage switches multiple times between 36V and 48V, and the established controller-based wireless charging system effectively tracks the desired output voltage in all cases. Figure 3 The response time of the process is specifically demonstrated using only the traditional proportional-integral-derivative control method with a feedback suppression strategy. Figure 3 The value of a) is 51 milliseconds, which is lower than that of traditional sliding mode control methods that only employ feedback suppression strategies. Figure 3 b) is 18 milliseconds, which is less than the traditional active disturbance rejection control method that only uses feedforward compensation strategy ( Figure 3 The c) is 26 milliseconds, while the proposed composite disturbance rejection control method ( Figure 3 The value of d) is 18 milliseconds. Compared with traditional integral-derivative control methods and active disturbance rejection control methods, the composite disturbance rejection control method proposed in this invention exhibits excellent step tracking performance.

[0061] Figures 4 to 6This demonstrates the experimental results of dynamic wireless charging for electric vehicles. In this process, an energy receiving coil mounted on the electric vehicle is initially aligned with the first energy transmitting coil. As the electric vehicle moves, the energy receiving coil gradually moves away from the first energy transmitting coil, gradually approaches it, and eventually aligns with the next energy transmitting coil. Figure 4 a, Figure 4 b, Figure 4 c and Figure 4 The figures d respectively demonstrate the control input signal effects during dynamic wireless charging under the control of the proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control method with only feedback suppression strategy, the traditional sliding mode control (SMC) method with only feedback suppression strategy, the traditional active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) method with only feedforward compensation strategy, and the composite disturbance rejection control method (CADC) proposed in this invention. Compared with the traditional sliding mode control method, the proposed composite disturbance rejection control method shows excellent control signal chatter suppression performance, which will effectively reduce actuator wear and additional power consumption. Figure 5 a, Figure 5 b, Figure 5 c and Figure 5 The figures d respectively demonstrate the output voltage fluctuation suppression effect during dynamic wireless charging under the control of the proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control method with only feedback suppression strategy, the traditional sliding mode control (SMC) method with only feedback suppression strategy, the traditional active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) method with only feedforward compensation strategy, and the composite disturbance rejection control method (CADC) proposed in this invention.

Figure 6 The observation performance of the model-free extended state observer is demonstrated, showing that it can effectively and accurately estimate perturbations regardless of their changes before and after the dynamic wireless charging process. These results indicate that the proposed method can achieve output voltage control without establishing a detailed mathematical model and effectively suppresses output voltage fluctuations during dynamic wireless charging. These experimental results strongly support the effectiveness and superior performance of the invention and further confirm the broad application potential of the proposed composite disturbance rejection control method in electric vehicle wireless charging systems.
