Abstract
The increasing complexity of Electric Vehicle (EV) powertrains necessitates a robust, integrated, and flexible control strategy, centralized within the Electric Vehicle Control Unit (EVCU). This study shows the implementation of the Id = control strategy using the MATLAB/Simulink Motor Control Blockset under varying loading conditions and speed requirements. This study further goes on to show an implementation of a CC-CV charging controller for a Li-ion battery with multiple current control loops. The study is designed for compliance with the AUTOSAR (Automotive Open System Architecture) Classic Platform for compliance – ensuring modularity, portability and adherence to industry standards. The study results validate the performance of the Interior PMSM and the ability to generate C implementation and header files from the model-based engineering (MBE) design approach which can be further used for hardware-in-the-loop testing. This study concludes that the MBE and AUTOSAR approach produces a highly efficient framework for developing, validating and iterating on complex, multi-domain electric vehicle components.
