Abstract

This paper proposes a regenerative braking system for electric bicycle based on DSP. The proposed method is used to adjust the switching sequence of the inverter, so that the braking energy will be returned to charge the battery. With the cooperation of regenerative braking energy recovery technologies and digital signal processor (TMS320LF2407) as the control unit, the regenerative braking energy is transformed to electrical energy and then returns to battery. The recovered energy can increase the driving endurance of the electric vehicles.
