Abstract

Power consumption and battery life are two of the key aspect when it comes to improve electric transportation systems autonomy. This paper describes the design, development and implementation of a speed profile generation based on the calculation of the optimal energy consumption for electric Cybercar vehicles for each of the stretches that are covering. The proposed system considers a commuter daily route that is already known. It divides the pre-defined route into segments according to the road slope and stretch length, generating the proper speed reference. The developed system was tested on an experimental electric platform at Inria's facilities, showing a significant improvement in terms of energy consumption for a pre-defined route.
