Abstract

In this paper the development of a Rule-Based Power and Energy Management Strategy as a result of Markov Chain analysis will be shown. Using real-world drive cycle data a Markov Chain Transition matrix is build from which a Bias matrix is developed showing the difference between acceleration and deceleration with respect to the next velocity as an extension to the Markov Chain. From this the parameters for a PEMS are developed, simulated and the results discussed and compared to other strategies.
