Abstract: In view of the necessity and real time performance of multiobjective performance coordinated control in the longitudinal following movement of intelligent distributed drive electric vehicle, an adaptive cruise control algorithm based on model predictive control theory is proposed on the basis of the analysis on the structure and longitudinal kinetics characteristics of distributed drive electric vehicle. A method of reducing the scale of optimization problem is adopted to shorten the computing time of single step, with the computational efficiency enhanced in online optimization. For verifying the effectiveness of the algorithm, simulation platform is constructed and relevant simulation and hardwareintheloop test are carried out. The results of both simulation and test indicate that the algorithm proposed can achieve coordinated optimization of both safety and energy saving of that vehicle, and meet the requirements for real time control.
