In order to establish an efficient inductive power transfer (IPT) mechanism for electric vehicles (EVs) it is necessary that a system with effective power control and efficiency maximization is established. As the equivalent resistance of the on-board battery charger continuously fluctuates during operation, a battery charging algorithm based on an improvised continuous current (CC)–constant voltage (CV) is proposed. This article introduces the design of an integrated stationary IPT system to inductively transfer power from a transmitter pad positioned on the ground and the receiver pad embedded under the chassis of an EV. An innovative feature of the design is the implementation of a magnetic switch sensor that is incorporated into both the transmitting and receiving wireless charging circuitry to ensure optimum alignment for IPT. The power electronics design focuses on the implementation of an H-bridge converter incorporating series–series (SS) compensation topology to use an innovative control algorithm to prioritize battery charging operations. The system is validated through a simulation model in PSIM and a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation in Typhoon before hardware implementation and testing of the developed prototype. At a test resonant frequency of 23.74 kHz and a nominal air gap separation of 120 mm, the developed IPT system had an overall efficiency of 93.41%.

This article demonstrates an innovative design of a sensorless technique to diagnose, monitor, and broadcast faults in an electric vehicle’s (EV) propulsion operating conditions. By utilizing the artificial intelligence with a signal processing mixed clustering technique, an onboard health monitoring system (HMS) has been presented. The clustering technique uses a data-mining approach to prevent future failures for predictive maintenance planning, which is novel. For example, the propulsion inverter is equipped with a diagnostic system that uses the proposed algorithm to compare the reference gate-driving signal with the actual output voltage of the voltage source inverter (VSI). This article presents different failure scenarios of the inverter and demonstrates the capability to be applied to other components, such as brakes and motors. To validate the proposed technique, the necessary algorithm calculations, simulation, and laboratory prototype results are provided. The proposed work is proven accurate with fast response in healthy and faulty conditions.

This article presents a non-convex optimized support vector machine (NCVX OSVM) algorithm for active steering stability of vehicles on a curved road. Initially, we considered a curved road geometrics formulation and designed a time-distributed (TD) model for NCVX OSVM to compute the steering angle 0°–180° at 10 m/s to follow active navigation at the highest curve entry speed. The proposed TD NCVX OSVM is interconnected with three modules. In the first module, formulated NCVX cost functions and Optimized SVM for smooth steering stability. The second module is based on improving faster training time (IFTT) by using the Naive Bayes probabilistic classifier (NBPC). The third module uses an optimized non-convex (NCVX) cost function to reduce the error phenomenon. The performance of these three modules is evaluated by several 100 data points from vehicle onboard sensors. Further, it is pre-processed in the curved road (start, continue, exit) conditions. The decisive of TD-NCVX OSVM design is demonstrated by using experimental learning on FPGA Zynq 7000 processor and programmed with python script. The empirical calculation shows an accuracy of 98.36%. Furthermore, the proposed design predicts an acceptable upper limit for curved steering whenever the vehicle turning speed is greater than 30 mi/h.

In motion-control applications, noise and dynamic nonlinearities influence the performance of control systems and lead to unpredictable disturbances. The dc servo motors used in motion control applications should have precise control methods to achieve the desired responses. Therefore, predicting and compensating for the disturbance are essential for increasing system robustness and achieving high precision and fast reaction. This article introduces the polynomial predictive filtering (PPF) method to estimate the states of a system using polynomial extrapolation of consecutive and evenly spaced sensor data. Acceleration-/torque-based experiments are conducted to validate the effectiveness and viability of the proposed method. The difference between the real-time sensor data and the PPF-based predicted value shows a standard deviation of less than 0.15 and $1 times 10^{-5}$
