Model-Based Analysis and Improvement of Vehicle Radiation Emissions at Low Frequency

Abstract

With the development of electrification and intelligence, the electromagnetic environment of intelligent and electric vehicles becomes complicated and critical because of the high voltage/current of power components, the computation units with high frequency and the dense radio systems. These pose great challenges for the design of vehicle radiation emissions. To improve the development efficiency, a model-based analysis and improvement strategy is proposed. Firstly, a topological approach is presented to decouple and model the vehicle-level radiation problem. By this topological model, each technical factor is analyzed from both of its contribution and sensitivity to the radiation emission, which are further integrated together using the entropy weight method to generate the technical evaluation score. Then, other untechnical factors, i.e., the cost and application difficulty, are further combined with the technical evaluation results by the analytic hierarchy process to determine the final solution. This strategy has been applied to solve a radiation problem of an electric vehicle at low frequency to validate its effectiveness and show some application details.
