[0048] The stability region considers the influence of the road adhesion coefficient and the vehicle speed on the stability region, where the vehicle speed affects the slope of the stability boundary and the road adhesion coefficient affects the position of the saddle point.

[0049] Step 2, establish a time domain control model of a four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle based on steering stability energy-saving evaluation parameters, as follows:

[0050] p = 2[10-round(10ρ)]

[0054] The steering stability and energy-saving evaluation parameter ρ is introduced to quantitatively describe the current stability state of the vehicle. The size of the adaptive coefficient z is related to the steering stability and energy-saving performance of the vehicle. The smaller the adaptive coefficient z is, the closer the steering stability and energy-saving evaluation parameter ρ is to 1, and the lower the vehicle stability and energy-saving performance of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle are. The level parameter I corresponding to the steering stability and energy-saving evaluation parameter ρ being equal to 0 is ind The larger the range, the more precise the evaluation results will be.

[0055] The desired horizontal parameters of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle and the remaining battery capacity SOC are adjusted in real time by the fuzzy controller to obtain the adaptive coefficient; when the phase plane of the center of mass side slip angle of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle is in a stable area, the real-time adjusted adaptive coefficient and the horizontal parameters of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle are input into the time domain optimization model, and the time domain optimization model is processed to output the real-time changing prediction time domain and control time domain. The desired horizontal parameters of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle I i ' nd is the expected value of the horizontal parameter of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle, I i ' nd =max{I' β ,I γ '}, I' β and I γ ' are the expected center of mass sideslip angle horizontal parameters and the expected yaw rate horizontal parameters respectively.

[0056] Center of mass side slip angle horizontal parameter I β and the yaw rate level parameter I γ The details are as follows:

[0057]

[0060] Step 3, using the real-time changing prediction time domain and control time domain as the time domain of the model predictive control MPC algorithm to obtain an improved model predictive control MPC algorithm, and processing the expected center of mass sideslip angle and yaw angular velocity of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle through the improved model predictive control MPC algorithm to output the additional yaw torque of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle, thereby adaptively controlling the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle.

[0061] Expected sideslip angle of center of mass of four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle γ ss and the desired yaw rate β ss The details are as follows:

[0062]

[0063] κ=m(l f K f -l r K r ) / (LK r K f )

[0064] Among them, v x is the body speed of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle; L is the distance from the front axle to the rear axle of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle; κ is the stability parameter; δ f is the front wheel turning angle of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle; μ and g represent the road adhesion coefficient and gravity acceleration respectively; sign() is the indicator parameter. If the input parameter is greater than 0, the indicator parameter is equal to 1; if the input parameter is less than 0, the indicator parameter is equal to -1; if the input parameter is equal to 0, the indicator parameter is equal to 0; l f and l r are the distances from the center of mass of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle to the front axle and the rear axle respectively; m is the vehicle mass of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle; K f and K r It is the lateral stiffness of the front and rear wheels of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle.

[0065] The system state space equations for the vehicle model with only lateral and yaw degrees of freedom are as follows:

[0066]

[0067] in, is the body speed v of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle x The derivative of is the derivative of the sideslip angle β of the center of mass of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle; is the derivative of the yaw rate of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle; F yf and F yrare the sum of the front wheel lateral force and the sum of the rear wheel lateral force of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle; I z is the z-axis moment of inertia of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle.

[0068] Considering the influence of the road adhesion coefficient μ, the boundary conditions of the yaw rate are as follows:

[0069]

[0070] When the vehicle is in a stable state, and are all 0, from which the expected yaw rate and the expected sideslip angle of the center of mass can be derived.

[0071] The additional yaw moment of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle output after improved model predictive control MPC algorithm processing is as follows:

[0072]

[0073] M z,min ≤u(t k +iΔτ)≤M z,max ,i=0,1,2…p-1

[0074] Among them, J() is the optimization objective function; X k,p and R k,p are the prediction sequence and reference sequence of the improved model predictive control MPC algorithm respectively; Q and W are the first and second weighted coefficients of the improved model predictive control MPC algorithm respectively; u k,p and The improved model predictive control MPC algorithm is used to process the additional yaw moment of the front and rear four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle; S u To predict the sequence X k,p The coefficient corresponding to the additional yaw moment u difference Δu between the steps; Ψ is the prediction sequence X without the additional yaw moment difference Δu between the steps k,p and the reference sequence R k,p The difference between z,max and M z,min are the upper and lower limits of the additional yaw moment of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle; t k is the starting control time of the improved model predictive control MPC algorithm; p is the prediction time domain; Δτ is the discrete step length.

[0075] In the improved model predictive control MPC algorithm, a nonlinear two-degree-of-freedom model considering the additional yaw moment is constructed as the prediction model, and the prediction model is linearized and discretized to obtain the prediction equation. The deviation between the predicted state quantity and the reference value is used as the optimization variable, and the optimization objective function is finally defined.

[0076] After the additional yaw moment is introduced, the state space equation of the nonlinear two-degree-of-freedom model is:

[0077]

[0078] Among them, M z is the additional yaw moment; since the sideslip angle β satisfies β=arctan(v y / v x )and v y is the velocity of the body of the four-wheel independent drive electric vehicle in the y direction, so β ​​can be simplified to β≈v y / v x ; Let x = [β,γ] T 、u=M z , according to the linear relationship between the sideslip angle and the lateral force, the nonlinear state space equation of the system is linearized as follows:

[0079]

[0080] in, is the derivative of x, and f() is the linear state space equation of the system.

[0081] [β,γ] T 、M z and δ f The coefficient matrices of are defined as A, B and C respectively, and the state space equation of the system is rewritten as:

[0082]

[0083] Then discretize it, set the discrete step length to Δτ, and keep only the first-order term. k The lower delta f Considering d as a fixed value, the discrete state space equation is:

[0084]

[0085] Δu(t k )=u(t k )-u(t k -Δτ)

[0086] ζ(t k )=[x(t k ),u(t k -Δτ)] T

[0087]

[0088] Among them, ζ is a new variable combining x and u; and are the variants of the three coefficient matrices A, B and C after discretization; Δu is the difference between u in each step; I is a diagonal matrix and 0 is a zero matrix.

[0089] The prediction equation can be written as:

[0090]

[0091] X k,p =[x T (t k +Δτt k ),x T (t k +2Δτt k ),…,x T (t k +pΔτt k )] T

[0092] =S c [ζ(t k )]+S u Δu(t k )+S d d

[0093] Φ=[I,0]

[0094] Among them, S c To predict the sequence X k,p The coefficient matrix corresponding to ζ in S d To predict the sequence X k,p The coefficient matrix corresponding to d in .

[0095] The expected sideslip angle β ss and the yaw rate γ ss As the reference input, that is, r = [β ss ,γ ss ] T , and obtain the reference sequence:

[0096] R k,p =[r T (t k +Δτt k ),r T (t k +2Δτt k ),...,r T (t k +pΔτt k )] T

[0097] In order to make the system follow the expected sideslip angle and yaw rate of the center of mass, the deviation between the predicted sequence and the reference sequence is used as the optimization variable, and the optimization objective function is defined as:

[0098]

[0099] u must satisfy the upper and lower limits of the additional yaw moment. Ψ=S c [ζ(t k )]+S d dR k,p . Finally we get:

[0100]

[0101] In the model predictive control MPC algorithm, the size of the prediction time domain and the control time domain will affect the additional yaw moment output in the end, and the relationship between the two is: the larger the time domain, the smaller the additional yaw moment, which is beneficial to energy saving; the smaller the time domain, the larger the additional yaw moment, which is beneficial to stability. The method of the present invention can minimize the additional yaw moment output by the upper controller, and coordinate the stability and energy saving during the steering process according to the stability level of the whole vehicle and the battery status.

[0102] The present invention realizes the real-time change of the time domain of the improved MPC algorithm with the stability level of the vehicle and the battery status by giving the vehicle driving conditions and vehicle parameters. Figure 2 As shown, in the two-degree-of-freedom vehicle model used in the specific implementation of the present invention, the structural parameters of the vehicle include: vehicle mass m, distance from the center of mass to the front axle l f , the distance between the center of mass and the rear axle is l r , distance from front axle to rear axle L, z-axis moment of inertia I z , front wheel cornering stiffness K f and rear wheel cornering stiffness K r 、V x and v y The sum of the lateral forces of the front wheels is F yf The sum of the lateral forces of the rear wheels is F yr , front wheel yaw rate γ f , rear wheel yaw rate γ r , center of mass sideslip angle β, front wheel sideslip angle α f 、Rear wheel slip angle α r The given driving condition is moving at a constant road adhesion coefficient μ and a constant speed. The relationship between the wheel angle and the steering wheel angle is δ f =δ / I t δ is the steering wheel angle, I t is the steering wheel transmission ratio. When some of the above parameters are known, the desired center of mass sideslip angle γ can be determined ss and the desired yaw rate β ss .

[0103] like Figure 3 As shown, the red solid line is the stable region boundary of the phase plane, and the green and blue solid lines represent the upper and lower boundaries of the yaw rate. The stable region boundary coefficient is affected by many conditions such as vehicle parameters. Considering the influence of the road adhesion coefficient and vehicle speed on the stable region, the vehicle speed affects the slope of the stable boundary, and the road adhesion coefficient affects the position of the saddle point. Calculate the slopes at four or more different vehicle speeds, calculate the positions of multiple saddle points, and obtain p1-p9 by fitting, thereby obtaining B1, B2 and B3. According to the expected sideslip angle of the center of mass and the yaw rate, I can be integrated to obtain i ' nd According to I i ' nd and the size of SOC, the fuzzy controller will output the adaptive coefficient z, such as Figure 4 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the fuzzy controller, which can ultimately determine the time domain size of the MPC algorithm.

[0104] Obtain the current center of mass slip angle, yaw rate, wheel angle and vehicle speed from the data acquisition module, and obtain the desired center of mass slip angle and yaw rate. Obtain the linearized state space equation coefficient matrices A, B and C. Perform the discretization process to obtain the discretized state space equation coefficient matrix and Determine the predicted sequence X k,p and the reference sequence R k,p Finally, the deviation between the predicted sequence and the reference sequence is used as the optimization variable to define the optimization objective function. Then, multiple control variables are transformed into a single control variable and solved using quadratic programming to obtain the minimized additional yaw moment.

[0105] The contents described in the implementation mode of this specification are merely an enumeration of the implementation forms of the inventive concept. The protection scope of the present invention should not be regarded as limited to the specific forms described in the implementation mode. The protection scope of the present invention also extends to the quantization method after combining the adaptive coefficient and the equivalent technical means of using fuzzy control to obtain the adaptive coefficient.
