Autonomous vehicle control to minimize energy consumption
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11886183B2) discloses a method for optimizing energy consumption in autonomous vehicles during navigation. The method involves generating vehicle motion control operations to guide the vehicle from its current location to a destination while predicting the energy consumption rate for the route. By modifying the vehicle's motion control operations in real-time, the actual energy consumption rate is kept below the predicted rate, ensuring efficient energy usage.
Furthermore, the patent includes provisions for predicting energy consumption rates for multiple alternative routes and selecting the most energy-efficient route based on these predictions. The system also incorporates environmental map data, such as geographical information, traffic conditions, and energy refilling locations, to enhance the accuracy of energy consumption rate predictions. Additionally, the method involves adjusting various vehicle operations, including speed, acceleration, steering, and braking, to optimize energy efficiency during navigation. The patent also covers the use of sensor data from both external and internal sensors on the autonomous vehicle to further refine the vehicle motion control operations and improve energy consumption optimization.
