System and method for managing operational states of a vehicle propulsion system

A system according to the principles of the present disclosure includes a power determination module and a powertrain control module that includes a state selection module. The power determination module can estimate power required to travel at a desired speed on a roadway segment located in an anticipated path of a vehicle based upon an estimated slope of the roadway segment. The powertrain control module can control operational states of a hybrid powertrain. The powertrain control module includes a state selection module that can determine whether a current operational state is capable of producing the estimated power based upon a state of charge of a vehicle battery. The state selection module can also switch to another operational state that is capable of producing the estimated powerif the current operational state is incapable of producing the estimated power. 根据本公开的原理的系统包括功率确定模块和动力系控制模块，该动力系控制模块包括状态选择模块。功率确定模块可基于位于车辆的预期路径中的道路节段的估计斜度来估计在该道路节段上以期望速度行驶所需的功率。动力系控制模块可控制混合动力系的操作状态。动力系控制模块包括状态选择模块，该状态选择模块可基于车
