SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING VEHICLE PROPULSION

A method (300) for controlling vehicle propulsion includes identifying at least one route characteristic (306) of a portion of a route being traversed by a vehicle (10). The method (300) further includes determining a profile for a target vehicle speed (308) based on the at least one route character...

Zusammenfassung:A method (300) for controlling vehicle propulsion includes identifying at least one route characteristic (306) of a portion of a route being traversed by a vehicle (10). The method (300) further includes determining a profile for a target vehicle speed (308) based on the at least one route characteristic and a vehicle energy consumption profile. The method (300) further includes selectively adjusting a vehicle speed control input based on the target vehicle speed profile. The method further includes communicating the vehicle speed control input (312) to a vehicle propulsion controller to achieve the target vehicle speed profile.
