[0070] The above drawings have shown clear embodiments of the present application, which will be described in more detail later. These drawings and text descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the present application in any way, but to illustrate the concept of the present application to those skilled in the art by referring to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0071] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all implementations consistent with the present application. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0072] In order to ensure the efficient operation of the tractor, a predictive energy management strategy that relies on the vehicle's GPS signal and map data is usually used to obtain the road conditions ahead in real time and predict power demand. However, due to the complex working environment of the tractor, the GPS signal is limited, making it difficult to effectively control the power. Therefore, in order to ensure the stable operation of the vehicle, it is crucial to effectively control the vehicle's fuel cell power in a complex environment.

[0073] In the prior art, the vehicle power control method under the condition of limited GPS signal usually adopts directly switching the predictive energy management strategy to the conventional SOC-based power control strategy, that is, adjusting the vehicle fuel cell power only according to the SOC to ensure stable operation of the vehicle.

[0074] However, the vehicle fuel cell power control method in the prior art does not fully utilize the predictive energy management strategy to control the energy saving of the vehicle fuel cell power when the vehicle position signal is available, resulting in energy waste of the vehicle and reduced energy utilization efficiency.

[0075] Based on this, the present application provides a vehicle fuel cell power control method. Since the vehicle can obtain road information at a certain distance ahead through the current power control strategy when the vehicle position signal is available, and perform efficient control of the vehicle fuel cell power, when the vehicle loses the vehicle position signal (i.e., after entering the signal obstacle area), it can be determined whether it is necessary to switch the power control strategy by judging the current real-time driving distance of the vehicle, that is, whether the current real-time driving distance of the vehicle is greater than the distance for the vehicle to obtain the road information ahead when the vehicle position signal is available. If it is greater, it indicates that the vehicle can no longer use the current power control strategy to reasonably control the vehicle fuel cell power, and needs to switch to a power control strategy based on SOC to control the power of the vehicle fuel cell. Therefore, by combining the vehicle position signal and the real-time driving distance after the vehicle enters a complex environment (e.g., a tunnel, a mountainous area, etc.) to reasonably switch the vehicle fuel cell power control strategy, the energy-saving control of the vehicle fuel cell power can be achieved to the greatest extent, and the utilization rate of the vehicle fuel cell energy can be improved.

[0076] It should be noted that the vehicle fuel cell power control method provided in the present application can be used in any signal-impeded area where the vehicle position signal cannot be accurately obtained, such as tunnels, mountainous areas, etc. In order to facilitate technical personnel to understand the specific implementation method of the present invention, the vehicle fuel cell power control method provided in the present application is specifically described based on the driving situation of the vehicle in a signal-impeded area.

[0077] The technical solution of the present application and how the technical solution of the present application solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0078] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the process of the vehicle fuel cell power control method provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 1 ;like Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0079] S101. Calculate in real time the distance between the vehicle and the starting position of a signal obstruction area according to the road information ahead of the vehicle and the vehicle position signal.

[0080] Among them, the vehicle position signal can be provided by on-board sensors or vehicle communication systems; the road information ahead of the vehicle can be obtained through high-precision maps; and the signal strength in the signal obstacle area is less than the preset signal strength.

[0081] It should be noted that in order to avoid the inability to accurately obtain the vehicle position signal due to weak signal strength or no signal, thereby resulting in low accuracy of the fuel cell power control strategy generated by the predictive energy management strategy, affecting the stable operation of the vehicle, so when there is a signal obstacle area with a signal strength less than the preset signal strength, the embodiment of the present application can be used to ensure the stable operation of the vehicle and improve the energy efficiency of the vehicle.

[0082] It can be understood that by combining the road information in front of the vehicle and the vehicle position signal, the real-time distance between the starting position of the signal obstruction area and the vehicle position can be obtained in real time, thereby providing a reliable data basis for subsequent judgment of whether the vehicle enters the signal obstruction area.

[0083] S102: When the real-time distance is less than the first preset distance and the vehicle position signal cannot be obtained, determine that the vehicle enters a signal obstruction area.

[0084] It can be understood that when the real-time distance is less than the first preset distance, it indicates that the distance between the vehicle and the signal obstacle area is very close. At the same time, in order to further determine whether the vehicle has entered the signal obstacle area, it is also necessary to determine whether the vehicle position signal can be obtained. If the real-time distance between the vehicle and the starting position of the signal obstacle area is less than the first preset distance, and the vehicle position signal cannot be obtained, it can be determined that the vehicle has entered the signal obstacle area. In this way, frequent switching of the vehicle fuel cell power control strategy due to data errors can be avoided, resulting in energy waste.

[0085] S103: Calculate the real-time travel distance of the vehicle in the signal obstruction area according to the real-time speed of the vehicle.

[0086] Optionally, the real-time driving distance of the vehicle in the signal obstacle area can be calculated by integrating the real-time speed of the vehicle over time. The specific calculation formula can be:

[0087]

[0088] Where D is the real-time driving distance of the vehicle in the signal obstacle area, and V is the real-time speed of the vehicle.

[0089] It should be understood that after determining that the vehicle has entered a signal obstruction area, the real-time driving distance of the vehicle in the signal obstruction area is recalculated based on the real-time speed of the vehicle to determine whether the vehicle needs to switch the vehicle fuel cell power control strategy.

[0090] S104: If the real-time driving distance is greater than the second preset distance, the power of the vehicle fuel cell is controlled by a power control strategy based on SOC.

[0091] Among them, the SOC-based power control strategy is to improve the overall efficiency of the vehicle by monitoring and adjusting the changes in the battery SOC and optimizing the vehicle's power distribution; the second preset distance is the distance that the vehicle uses to obtain the road ahead information using the vehicle's road ahead information and the vehicle's position signal before losing the signal.

[0092] It should be understood that when the real-time driving distance is greater than the second preset distance, it indicates that the current predictive energy management strategy can no longer be used to reasonably control the power of the vehicle fuel cell. At the same time, in order to ensure stable and safe operation of the vehicle, it is necessary to control the power of the vehicle fuel cell through a SOC-based power control strategy.

[0093] The vehicle fuel cell power control method provided in the embodiment of the present application first accurately determines whether the vehicle has entered the signal obstruction area by calculating the real-time distance between the vehicle and the starting position of the signal obstruction area in real time according to the road information in front of the vehicle and the vehicle position signal, so as to prepare for the subsequent vehicle fuel cell power control; thereafter, when the real-time distance between the vehicle and the starting position of the signal obstruction area is less than the first preset distance and the vehicle position signal cannot be obtained, it indicates that the vehicle has entered the signal obstruction area; then, according to the current real-time speed of the vehicle, the real-time driving distance of the vehicle in the signal obstruction area is calculated to determine whether the vehicle needs to switch the vehicle power algorithm, that is, switch to the conventional SOC-based power control strategy to ensure the stable operation of the vehicle; finally, if the real-time driving distance is greater than the second preset distance, it means that the vehicle can no longer use the current vehicle fuel cell power control strategy to effectively control the vehicle fuel cell power, then the power of the vehicle fuel cell is controlled by the SOC-based power control strategy to ensure the stable operation of the vehicle. Through this method, the energy-saving control of the vehicle fuel cell power can be fully utilized when the vehicle position signal is available, thereby improving the vehicle's energy management efficiency and operating stability in signal-impeded areas, and providing a more intelligent solution for the optimal control of vehicle fuel cell power in complex driving environments.

[0094] In one achievable manner, in order to give full play to the energy-saving control of the vehicle fuel cell power when the vehicle position signal is available, the method for controlling the vehicle fuel cell power may further include:

[0095] When it is determined that the vehicle enters a signal obstacle area and the vehicle position signal can be obtained, the power of the vehicle fuel cell is controlled according to a predictive energy management strategy.

[0096] It is understandable that since the vehicle position signal has a certain delay or the signal conditions in the signal obstruction area are better, the vehicle position signal can still be obtained after it is determined that the vehicle has entered the signal obstruction area. In order to ensure the optimal control of the vehicle fuel cell power, a predictive energy management strategy is used to control the power of the vehicle fuel cell to avoid energy waste of the vehicle.

[0097] In one achievable manner, a specific method for controlling the power of a vehicle fuel cell according to a predictive energy management strategy includes:

[0098] First, when it is determined that the vehicle has entered a signal obstacle area and the vehicle position signal can be obtained, it is determined whether the vehicle can obtain the road information ahead of the vehicle; then, if the vehicle can obtain the road information ahead of the vehicle, the power of the vehicle fuel cell is controlled according to the predictive energy management strategy.

[0099] It is understandable that although the vehicle enters the signal obstacle area, since the vehicle position signal can still be obtained, that is, the vehicle can still obtain road information within the preset road range ahead, the predictive energy management strategy can still work normally without switching the vehicle fuel cell power control strategy.

[0100] Optionally, the specific calculation method of the predictive energy management strategy is:

[0101] First, a demand power signal within a preset range in front of the vehicle is obtained; then, based on the demand power signal, the average power within the preset range in front of the vehicle is calculated; then, the power corresponding to the SOC difference between the target SOC and the current SOC is determined as the corrected power; further, the sum of the average power and the corrected power is determined as the current power; finally, the vehicle fuel cell is controlled to travel according to the current power.

[0102] It should be noted that the power demand signal within the preset range in front of the vehicle is obtained based on the vehicle's high-precision map and sensor data to obtain the power demand within the preset range (e.g., 8 km) in front of the vehicle.

[0103] Optionally, the calculation method of the corrected power is based on the power corresponding to the difference between the current SOC and the target SOC. The specific calculation formula includes:

[0104]

[0105]

[0106]

[0107] Where P is the average power within the preset range in front of the vehicle; u(i) is divided into i matrices according to the required power signal within the preset range in front of the vehicle, each matrix size is 1×50, and each element value in the matrix represents the predicted average power of the corresponding section; P out To correct the power based on the current SOC to obtain the output power; P soc is the corrected power based on the difference between the current SOC and the target SOC; K(SOC1-SOC2) is the corrected power of the fuel cell obtained based on the difference between the current SOC and the target SOC; K is the corrected power coefficient.

[0108] It can be understood that through the predictive energy management strategy, firstly, calculating the average power within the preset range in front of the vehicle can reduce the fluctuation of power demand and avoid overload of the battery or power battery due to instantaneous power mutation. Secondly, through the correction calculation of the output power, the battery operation can be made more efficient, the cruising range of the whole vehicle can be improved, and energy waste can be reduced.

[0109] Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the process of the vehicle fuel cell power control method provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 2 ;like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment Figure 1 Based on the embodiment, a method for calculating the real-time distance between the vehicle and the starting position of the signal obstacle area in real time is described in detail, and the method includes:

[0110] S201. Determine, based on road information ahead of the vehicle, whether there is a signal obstruction area within a preset range ahead of the vehicle.

[0111] Optionally, the road information ahead of the vehicle can be obtained by receiving the segment signal obstacle area (Seg_Tunnel) signal and segment distance (Seg_Offset) signal in the segment (SEGMENT) message sent by the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems Interface Specifications (ADASIS) V2 protocol in the Advanced Driving Assistance System (ADAS); receiving the position offset (Posn_Offset) signal in the position (POSITION) message and the road feature (ProfShort_Offset) signal in the feature (PROFILE SHORT) message.

[0112] It can be understood that by utilizing high-precision map information or a vehicle system to determine whether there is a signal obstruction area within a preset range ahead, preparations can be made for the subsequent switching of vehicle control strategies to ensure stable operation of the vehicle.

[0113] In one achievable manner, a first signal may be acquired, where the first signal is used to indicate whether there is a signal obstruction area within a preset range in front of the vehicle.

[0114] It should be noted that the first signal may be the Seg_Tunnel signal in the above embodiment, which is a Boolean signal used to identify whether the current road segment contains a signal obstruction area; when Seg_Tunnel=0, it indicates that the current road segment does not contain a signal obstruction area; when Seg_Tunnel=1, it indicates that the current road segment contains a signal obstruction area.

[0115] S202: If there is a signal obstruction area within a preset range in front of the vehicle, the real-time distance between the vehicle and the starting position of the signal obstruction area is calculated in real time according to the vehicle position signal, the real-time speed and the starting position of the signal obstruction area indicated in the road information in front of the vehicle.

[0116] In one possible implementation, the real-time distance between the vehicle and the starting position of the signal obstruction area is calculated as follows:

[0117] First, when the first signal switches from the first value to the second value, it is determined that there is a signal obstruction area within a preset range in front of the vehicle, and the value of the vehicle position signal and the value of the second signal are obtained; then, based on the value of the vehicle position signal and the value of the second signal, the initial distance between the vehicle and the starting position of the signal obstruction area is calculated; finally, based on the real-time speed of the vehicle and the initial distance, the real-time distance between the vehicle and the starting position of the signal obstruction area is calculated in real time.

[0118] The second signal is used to indicate the starting position of the signal obstruction area.

[0119] For example, when the Seg_Tunnel signal changes from 0 to 1, it indicates that there is a signal obstruction area within the preset range in front of the vehicle. At the same time, the value of the vehicle position signal (Posn_Offset) and the value of the second signal (Seg_Offset) are obtained. The initial distance between the vehicle and the starting position of the signal obstruction area can be obtained by subtracting the value of the Seg_Offset signal from the value of the Posn_Offset signal (D1=Seg_Offset-Posn_Offset); further, the vehicle's travel distance can be calculated in real time according to the vehicle's real-time speed to calculate the real-time distance between the vehicle and the starting position of the signal obstruction area. The specific calculation formula is:

[0120]

[0121] Among them, D2 is the real-time distance between the vehicle and the starting position of the signal obstacle area; D1 is the initial distance between the vehicle and the starting position of the signal obstacle area; V is the real-time speed of the vehicle; t is the driving time of the vehicle, starting from the moment the signal obstacle area reminder is received.

[0122] Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the process of the vehicle fuel cell power control method provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 3 ;like Figure 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0123] S301, calculating in real time the real-time distance between the vehicle and the starting position of the signal obstruction area according to the road information in front of the vehicle and the vehicle position signal.

[0132] FIG4 (a) is a power control curve diagram of the predictive energy management strategy provided by the embodiment of the present application; as shown in FIG4 (a), the horizontal axis represents the rate of change of the battery state of charge, and the vertical axis represents the corrected power corresponding to the SOC difference between the target SOC and the current SOC. The power control curve reflects the SOC adjustment capability of the fuel cell at different power output levels: when the power corresponding to the SOC difference between the target SOC and the current SOC is large, the rate of change of the battery state of charge is usually negative, indicating that the battery is in an accelerated discharge state; correspondingly, when the power corresponding to the SOC difference between the target SOC and the current SOC is small and negative, the rate of change of the battery state of charge is usually close to 0 or positive, indicating that the battery is in a maintenance state or a charging state.

[0133] FIG4( b) is a power control curve diagram of the SOC-based power control strategy provided in an embodiment of the present application; as shown in FIG4( b), the horizontal axis represents the battery state of charge, and the vertical axis represents the battery output power. When the SOC is high, the battery output power is low and mainly depends on the battery discharge; when the SOC is low, the battery increases the power output and is charged.
