Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of the Internet of Things for electric vehicles, and particularly relates to a scheduling method for idle mobile charging stations based on encounter records in an electric vehicle network. Background Art
[0002] In the Internet of Things for electric vehicles, fixed charging stations are the most common charging method for electric vehicles. However, during peak charging hours, and in cases where there is a shortage of charging facilities such as on highways or in remote areas, fixed charging stations often cannot meet the charging demands of electric vehicles. To address this issue, mobile charging stations have emerged as a supplementary form to fixed charging stations. The focus of the present invention is on how to reasonably schedule idle mobile charging stations so that they can be pre-deployed in the areas where electric vehicles with insufficient battery power are located but have not received charging requests, thereby quickly meeting their charging needs.
[0003] Normally, before an electric vehicle issues a charging request, idle mobile charging stations do not actively move in its direction. However, by pre-scheduling mobile charging stations according to potential charging demands through a cloud server and actively tracking electric vehicles that may issue demands, the timely charging ratio of electric vehicles can be significantly increased, thereby enhancing the overall efficiency and revenue of the charging stations.
[0004] However, when scheduling mobile charging stations, it is inevitable to encounter uncertain factors in the environment. These factors may cause the optimal solution obtained from the original deterministic model to lose its meaning. In the Internet of Things for electric vehicles, a relatively prominent uncertain factor is the charging demand of electric vehicles, which is affected by fluctuations in multiple variables such as weather, road traffic flow, and driver travel patterns. In addition, the magnitude of the charging demand is also closely related to life factors such as peak commuting hours, holidays, and the flow of people. These dynamic changes in demand play an important role in the scheduling results of mobile charging stations. Most existing mobile charging station scheduling algorithms ignore the historical encounter data of mobile charging stations and complete the scheduling of each charging station through a cloud server, which places a great pressure on the server. Therefore, how to reduce the server pressure while effectively using historical data to predict the future charging demand distribution has become one of the common research goals of those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Through the analysis of the historical encounter records of mobile charging stations, the present invention proposes a scheduling method for idle mobile charging stations based on encounter records in an electric vehicle network.
[0006] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows. A scheduling method for idle mobile charging stations based on encounter records in an electric vehicle network includes the following steps:
[0007] S1. The mobile charging station collects historical encounter records of each coordinate point in the area and calculates the future weighted charging priority of nearby coordinate points, including the following steps:
[0008] S11. Divide a city into z regions and use the set R = {R1, R2, ..., R k ,R z} indicates that R k represents region k, let R k There are (m+1)×(n+1) road intersections in total. In the tth time slot, the coordinate R k The encounter data of (i,j),i∈[0,m],j∈[0,n] is Among them ON k (i,j,t), VN k (i,j,t) and CN k (i, j, t) respectively represent the time slot t in R k The number of electric vehicles with charging needs at (i, j), the number of electric vehicles, and the number of mobile charging stations. Mobile charging stations exchange encounter data with each other when encountering other mobile charging stations. Each mobile charging station only stores the encounter data of the past τ time slots.
[0009] S12, Yizhi mobile charging stations need to go to places with high demand for charging and few mobile charging stations to maximize their profits. k The charging priority score of (i, j) in the t+1th time slot can be expressed as:
[0010]
[0011] R k The weighted charging priority prediction value of (i, j) at the t+1th time slot is expressed as:
[0012]
[0013] S2. The cloud server predicts the regional weighted mobile charging station demand based on the historical charging demand of each region. Specifically, the steps include:
[0014] S21, the cross-region scheduling period T contains α time slots, R k The weighted mobile charging station demand value of the region in the lth period is expressed as:
[0015]
[0016] Among them, CR kl R k The number of mobile charging stations in the region in the α-1th time slot of the lth cycle, OR kl R kThe number of electric vehicles in the area that generate charging demand in the l-th cycle. Predict the weighted mobile charging station demand value of the area R in the l+1-th cycle based on the past n cycles k Weighted mobile charging station demand value:
[0017]
[0018] BPW kl+1 >0 indicates that in the next cycle, area R k requires more mobile charging stations. S3. The mobile charging station selects the target coordinates for the next time slot according to the future weighted charging priority; the cloud server macroscopically coordinates the mobile charging stations to move across regions within the cycle according to the weighted mobile charging station demand values of each region, including the following steps:
[0019] S31. The mobile charging station preferentially responds to charging requests during the journey
[0020] S31. At the last time slot of each cross-region movement cycle, each region distributes the redundant charging stations in this cycle to adjacent regions according to the proportion of the weighted demand prediction value in the next cycle
[0021] S32. When a mobile charging station that does not participate in cross-region scheduling moves each time, it will select the target coordinate point with the highest future weighted charging priority for movement.
[0022] Among them, S11 classifies and quantifies the encounter data between mobile charging stations and electric vehicles in the grid road network model, and uses this as the basis for determining the future movement trajectory of the mobile charging station.
[0023] Among them, in S12, each mobile charging station needs to calculate the future weighted charging priority of nearby coordinate points at each different time slot, and the calculation process of each time slot is independent.
[0024] Among them, in S21, the cloud server will predict the weighted mobile charging station demand values of future regions according to the data of each region in the past n cycles.
[0025] Among them, in S3, the cloud server macroscopically regulates the number of mobile charging stations in each region, and the mobile charging station independently calculates its own future movement trajectory.

When the processor executes the program, it implements the method for scheduling idle mobile charging stations in an electric vehicle network based on encounter records.
[0027] A computer-readable storage medium, on which computer instructions are stored. When the computer instructions are executed by a processor, they implement the method for scheduling idle mobile charging stations in an electric vehicle network based on encounter records.

On the other hand, the present invention proposes a method for predicting the weighted demand of mobile charging stations in each region, and avoids the imbalance between charging supply and demand in the region through cross-regional scheduling. The calculation scheme of the predicted value of the weighted charging priority of the coordinate points given in the present invention can adapt to various complex scenarios, the overall scheme is easy to deploy, has strong universality, and can continuously optimize the moving trajectory of mobile charging stations by continuously collecting encounter records after deployment, improve the completion rate of charging orders, not only facilitate electric vehicle users but also enhance the interests of mobile charging station merchants, and has high use and promotion value.

At the t time slot, the mobile charging station collects the encounter records of the current coordinate point and exchanges historical encounter records with other mobile charging stations. Based on these records, calculate the predicted value of the weighted charging priority of the coordinate points near the next time slot, and select the target coordinate point for movement at the next time slot accordingly.

[0049] S32. Each time a mobile charging station that does not participate in cross-region scheduling moves, it will select the target coordinate point with the highest future weighted charging priority for movement.
