Abstract: A novel dynamometer loading control algorithm is studied with consideration of the effects of control network transmission time-delay in this paper. Firstly based on a front drive electric vehicle, the dynamic coupling model for vehicle and test bench and the mathematical model for the stochastic network-induced time-delay with uniform distribution are constructed. Then, a compensation algorithm for stochastic network-induced time-delay based on predictive control structure is proposed to improve the load emulation performance of dynamometer network control system. Next, the problem of stochastic system tracking control is transformed into a robust stabilization issue by system augmentation, the H performance is analyzed and the system control gains are obtained through nonlinear optimization. Finally, a simulation on bench test for anti-lock braking control is conducted with a result showing that the scheme proposed can greatly enhance the load emulation accuracy of dynamometer
