Integrative braking control system for electric vehicles

For Electric Vehicle (EV), energy saving and endurance mileage prolonging are very important. Regenerative braking techniques are key parts of electric techniques for saving energy. The traditional braking system must be updated to adapt the condition that the friction braking force is coexisting with the motor regenerative braking force. For the integrative braking control system it is so important to keep the traditional braking performance while recovering braking energy and fully exert the capability of the motor. In this paper, a new integrative braking control system will be studied. The simulation results based on the ADVISOR and the HIL test bench validate the effects of the system, such as energy recovering and braking performance.
