Research on an Electromagnetic Interference Test Method Based on Fast Fourier Transform and Dot Frequency Scanning for New Energy Vehicles under Dynamic Conditions

Abstract

In recent years, electromagnetic interference (EMI) of new energy vehicles, including difference mode symmetric interference and common mode asymmetry interference, has attracted the attention of many scholars. So far, EMI tests for new energy vehicles under steady conditions cannot reflect the actual EMI of the running vehicle. The results of EMI test methods based on fast Fourier transform (FFT) under dynamic conditions have worse frequency resolutions, and frequency/amplitude accuracy has low precision. Therefore, this paper proposes an EMI test method based on FFT and dot frequency scanning (DFS) for new energy vehicles under dynamic conditions. The identification method for accelerating, sliding, and braking conditions is studied. A comprehensive EMI key evaluation index system for new energy vehicles is built, including characteristic points with maximum amplitude, area, ratio, and density coefficients for high-amplitude characteristic points. Among them, the maximum amplitude is an index to evaluate extreme values. The ratio of high-amplitude characteristic points is a comprehensive index to evaluate the overall region. The density coefficient is an index to evaluate the local region. Finally, this method is applied to three vehicles. With the same instruments, by reducing the FFT frequency span, the frequency resolution and frequency accuracy increase. The results indicate that the EMI of new energy vehicles can be tested under dynamic conditions with high accuracy according to the operable evaluation indexes.
