INTELLIGENT CONTROL OF ELECTRICAL DRIVE SYSTEM USED FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLES

An electric vehicle (EV) uses an electric motor for traction and chemical batteries, superconductors, combustion cells and / or inertial masses as energy sources. To avoid problems regarding the accuracy of the mathematical model of the system, the use of artificial intelligence in electric drives is a viable alternative. Among other advantages of using artificial intelligence in the electric drive system, it can be emphasized that its application reduces the design time and leads to avoiding problems with the introduction of the mathematical model in the system control algorithm. This paper presents several case studies of electrical vehicles and some considerations about intelligent control of EVs. Finally some experimental results that compare classical control system with fuzzy logic control system for EV are presented.
