Hardware-in-the-loop simulation on control strategy in hybrid electric transmission tracked vehicle

To invesigate the feasibility of control strategy in hybrid electric transmission tracked vehicle, the hardware-in-the-loop simulation is introduced. A new control strategy based on voltage control for hybrid electric transmission tracked vehicle is proposed, according to vehicle's structure style and DC-DC convertion control. Real driver's input and controller are applied, and the controlled object and its plant are simulated based on the model of hybrid electric transmission tracked vehicle's drive system by real-time computation in dSPACE. The hardware-in-the-loop simulation platform for studying on the control strategy is established, including CAN in the loop. The control strategy is validated by experiment through the hardware-in-the-loop simulation platform. The results show that the control strategy is feasible and effective, and driver's demand is satisfied.
