Fuzzy Logic Controller for an EV’s Dual-Source Hybridization

Abstract

This paper presents an energy management system (EMS) based on fuzzy logic control (FLC) strategy combined with power filtering. This strategy is developed for an Electric Vehicle (EV) hybrid energy storage systems (HESS). The proposed control and energy management strategy (EMS) aims to ensure an efficient power split guaranteeing that battery and supercapacitors (SC) provide the continuous and transient-power, respectively, adopting a pure electric vehicle fully-active parallel topology. In order to develop the studied system model, the Energetic Macroscopic Representation (EMR) approach is adopted. Considering SC’s control criterion, and battery root mean square RMS current reducing, an evaluation of the proposed EMS and developed model was conducted using MATLAB/SIMULINK simulation under New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) and compared to the classical only battery storage configuration.
