Notes

  1. 1.

    We limit our focus to the problem of fuel consumption minimization, with no inclusion of drivability considerations. Typically, the gear shifting optimization pertains to the transmission control and it is not an objective of the supervisory control. The optimization of the gear shifting strategy would require the formulation of an optimal control problem which includes both continuous time and discrete time dynamics. In this work, we assume that the transmission controller operates independently of the supervisory controller, therefore the gear shifting strategy is treated as a known external input to the energy management system.

  2. 2.

    In general, both the resistance and open circuit voltage are dependent also on temperature, \(\theta \). In this study we neglect the effect of the temperature on the battery parameters.
