Abstract

Abstract: To solve the problem of driving anti-slip of Distributed Drive Electric Vehicle (DDEV) under complex working conditions,a multi-agent distributed cooperative control strategy based on modular was proposed. Firstly,a modular approach was used to build the whole vehicle structure,and each hub motor wheel and controller as a whole was regarded as an agent,and the slip rate model of the agent was established according to the wheel motion and the whole vehicle motion;then,a Distributed Model Predictive Control (DMPC) strategy based on multi-agents was designed to achieve drive anti-slip with co-optimisation under multiple constraints as the objective function,which solves the problem of insufficient drive power and achieves low energy consumption and comfort at the same time; finally,experiments were simulated using Simulink software and CarSim software. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy and provide a new control method for further applications of distributed drives.
