Power Supply Vehicle Dispatch Planning for Predictive EV Charging
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing technologies for providing power supply services to vehicles lack efficiency and predictability in dispatching power supply vehicles, requiring users to repeatedly request power supply, which increases user burden and hampers efficient resource allocation.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus that accepts user designations of power supply conditions, predicts target dates and times for power supply, and determines operation plans for dispatching power supply vehicles, repeatedly performing this process upon completion of each power supply to optimize resource allocation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If users repeatedly request power supply manually, then power supply service can be provided, but user burden increases and operation efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables self-service by automatically monitoring power levels and initiating power supply requests without user intervention. The power supply management device autonomously determines when power supply is needed and dispatches power supply vehicles, eliminating the need for users to repeatedly manually request service.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary action by setting threshold values for power levels and pre-establishing dispatch criteria. When power levels fall below predetermined thresholds, the system automatically triggers power supply operations in advance, preventing complete power depletion and reducing user burden.
2Reliability
If power supply vehicles are dispatched based on real-time requests only, then response accuracy is maintained, but resource allocation efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary dispatch planning by predicting future power supply needs based on historical data and current power levels. Power supply vehicles are dispatched in advance according to predetermined thresholds and routes, improving resource allocation efficiency while maintaining reliable response accuracy through automated monitoring.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback mechanisms by continuously monitoring power levels and comparing them against threshold values. This feedback loop enables the system to adjust dispatch decisions dynamically, ensuring response accuracy is maintained while optimizing resource allocation through learned patterns from historical power consumption data.
3Measurement precision
If manual power supply requests are processed individually, then service precision is maintained, but system complexity and processing time increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system merges multiple individual power supply requests into consolidated batch processing. By grouping requests that meet predetermined criteria and processing them together through automated algorithms, the system maintains service precision for each user while reducing overall system complexity and processing time.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes parameters by establishing threshold values for power levels and automated dispatch criteria. These parameter-based decision rules replace complex individual assessments, maintaining service precision through consistent threshold-based triggers while simplifying the overall processing system.
