Abstract

Systems, methods, and at least one computer-readable medium for selecting a velocity profile for an electric vehicle. In some embodiments, a first parameter value may be determined for a road segment in a selection horizon, and a second parameter value may be determined for an energy storage device of the electric vehicle. The first and second parameter values may be used to predict a plurality of velocity profiles over the selection horizon, wherein each velocity profile is predicted based on a corresponding value of a variable relating to a driving style of a driver of the electric vehicle. An energy consumption cost and a travel time cost may be computed for each velocity profile. A velocity profile may be selected from the plurality of velocity profiles, based on the respective energy consumption costs and the respective travel time costs.
