Abstract

In this paper, an eco-driving Pontryagin maximum principle (PMP) algorithm is designed for optimal deceleration and gear shifting in trucks based on switching among a finite set of driving modes. The PMP algorithm is implemented and assessed in the IPG TruckMaker traffic simulator as an eco-driving assistance system (EDAS). The developed EDAS strategy reduces fuel consumption with an optimized velocity profile and, in practice, allows contextual feedback incorporation from the driver for safety. Furthermore, the optimization over driving modes is computationally inexpensive, allowing the methodology to be used online, in real-time. Simulation results show that significant fuel savings can be achieved proportional to the number of velocity events and the difference between current velocity and final desired velocity for each event.
