Abstract
The operation of a hybrid powertrain system is optimized with respect to a desired state-of-charge trajectory, taking account of the estimated anticipated vehicle drive power. The hybrid powertrain system has an internal combustion engine and an electrically operated torque machine. The internal combustion engine and the torque machine are controlled by a control device and are connected to an output element via a hybrid transmission. Before the start of the prediction period Δt, an experience-based state-of-charge trajectory for the anticipated route, covering at least the prediction period Δt, is retrieved from an external database. The desired state-of-charge trajectory is established based on the experience-based state-of-charge trajectory by modifying it with at least one optimization constraint. The experience-based state-of-charge trajectory can be established based on operating data from hybrid powertrain systems of multiple vehicles and/or from operating data from multiple comparable journeys with the same vehicle.
