Abstract
To address energy management challenges for intelligent connected automated range-extended electric vehicles under vehicle-road cooperative environments, a hierarchical energy management strategy (EMS) based on speed prediction is proposed from the perspective of multi-objective optimization (MOO), with comprehensive system performance being significantly enhanced. Focusing on connected car-following scenarios, acceleration sequence prediction is performed based on Kalman filtering and preceding vehicle acceleration. A dual-layer optimization strategy is subsequently developed: in the upper layer, optimal speed curves are planned based on road network topology and preceding vehicle trajectories, while in the lower layer, coordinated multi-power source allocation is achieved through EMSMPC-P, a Bayesian-optimized model predictive EMS based on Pontryagin’ s minimum principle (PMP). A MOO model is ultimately formulated to enhance comprehensive system performance. Simulation and bench test results demonstrate that with SoC0 = 0.4, 7.69% and 5.13% improvement in fuel economy is achieved by EMSMPC-P compared to the charge depleting-charge sustaining (CD-CS) method and the charge depleting-blend (CD-Blend) method. Travel time reductions of 62.2% and 58.7% are observed versus CD-CS and CD-Blend. Battery lifespan degradation is mitigated by 16.18% and 5.89% relative to CD-CS and CD-Blend, demonstrating the method’s marked advantages in improving traffic efficiency, safety, battery life maintenance, and fuel economy. This study not only establishes a technical paradigm with theoretical depth and engineering applicability for EMS, but also quantitatively reveals intrinsic mechanisms underlying long-term prediction accuracy enhancement through data analysis, providing critical guidance for future vehicle–road–cloud collaborative system development.
