An Electronic Line-Shafting Control Strategy Based on Sliding Mode Observer for Distributed Driving Electric Vehicles

This paper proposed control schemes to realize the collaborative control as well as enhance the control precision for the distributed driving electric vehicle (DDEV). Firstly, we suggested an electronic line-shafting (ELS) to realize the cooperative control for the Multi-Motor system which is installed in the DDEV. Secondly, we adopted a nonsingular terminal sliding mode control (NTSMC) method combined with a sliding mode observer (SMO) to quicken the response velocity and strengthen the robustness of the single motor controller. Finally, for the chattering value caused by the internal parameter variation and external disturbance, a fuzzy algorithm is proposed to obtain the controller parameters of NTSMC in real-time to eliminate the chattering value of DDEV. Through several simulations and experiments, the results demonstrate that the proposed strategies can realize ideal collaborative control for the Multi-Motor system, as well as improve the dynamic performance and anti-jamming ability for the whole control system of DDEV.
