Abstract

This paper deals with the HEV real-time energy management problem using deep reinforcement learning with connected technologies such as Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I). In the HEV energy management problem, it is important to run the engine efficiently in order to minimize its total energy cost. This research proposes a policy model that takes into account road congestion and aims to learn the optimal system mode selection and power distribution when considering the far future by policy-based reinforcement learning. In the simulation, a traffic environment is generated in a virtual space by IPG CarMaker and a HEV model is prepared in MATLAB/Simulink to calculate the energy cost while driving on the road environment. The simulation validation shows the versatility of the proposed method for the test data, and in addition, it shows that considering road congestion reduces the total cost and improves the learning speed. Furthermore, we compare the proposed method with model predictive control (MPC) under the same conditions and show that the proposed method obtains more global optimal solutions.
