Design and development of electric vehicle monitoring platform Abstract: Based on the DSP development platform, this paper designs the communication program of the electric vehicle motor controller node. In order to effectively monitor the electric vehicle and various subsystems, the application layer protocol and monitoring system of the electric vehicle CAN bus are designed. Experiments show that the monitoring system can communicate with other nodes via CAN bus, and then realize real-time online data monitoring and fault diagnosis. Keywords: CAN bus; electric vehicle; TMS320LF2407 1 Introduction There are many electric control units in electric vehicles, small internal space, and large environmental interference, which put forward higher requirements for control systems and communication systems. With its good operating characteristics, high reliability and unique design, CAN is especially suitable for communication between electronic control units of electric vehicles. In order to better conduct research in the laboratory, a test platform with relatively complete functions has been established, which can study the CAN bus system and its network protocol. First, the communication program of the motor controller node is designed based on the development of DSP. Secondly, in-depth understanding of the application requirements of CAN bus in electric vehicles, designed CAN 2 The design of the motor controller node According to the characteristics of the motor controller of the electric vehicle, the TMS320LF2407 chip of TI company is used as the processor of the motor controller. Using the modular design idea, the communication program of the motor controller node is written, which can be easily transplanted to the DSP-based motor controller or other control units. In the CAN bus system of electric vehicles, the real-time requirement of the motor controller is high, which belongs to the high-speed node, and the baud rate is set to 1 megabaud. The motor controller node mainly receives control information such as motor working mode, SOC, vehicle speed, accelerator pedal position, and brake pedal position uploaded from the bus, and also sends real-time information such as motor working temperature, motor failure, and working status. In this paper, the mailbox 2 of DSP2407 is used as the receiving mailbox, and the mailbox 5 is used as the sending mailbox, which is sent once every 20 milliseconds. 3 Design of electric vehicle monitoring system Simulate electric vehicle CAN bus system in the laboratory, with PC (with USB-CAN module) as the general controller of electric vehicle. Using the operating mechanism and working principle of the CAN-bus universal test software, a monitoring system based on the CAN bus technology of electric vehicles based on PC was designed. Figure 1 Operation interface of electric vehicle monitoring system 3.2 The communication protocol of the monitoring system only defines the two-layer protocol of the data link layer and the physical layer in the CAN protocol, which lacks the specification of information processing, and the application process of human-computer interaction is inseparable in a complete network system, so it must be User-defined application layer protocol. According to the characteristics of electric vehicle operation, the communication protocol of the monitoring system is designed. Generally speaking, the electronic control units (ECU) on electric vehicles are divided into two categories: high-speed and low-speed nodes. High-speed nodes include motor controller, engine controller, battery controller, ABS / ASR 3.3 Monitoring system program design The monitoring system is to complete the monitoring of each node. According to the design requirements, the entire design can be divided into five design forms, including the main form, the motor controller monitoring form, and the battery controller monitoring form , Clutch controller monitoring form and creating node form, and modular design. Among them, creating a node form can easily create a monitoring window and set the node ID number and monitoring variables as needed. The flow chart of program design of the monitoring system is shown in Figure 2. Figure 2 Flow chart of the monitoring system program 4 Test of the monitoring system After the PC's monitoring system program design is completed, in order to verify whether the program works normally, and at the same time, to verify the correctness of the designed lower computer DSP data acquisition and communication program. Here, the DSP data acquisition, communication program and PC program are combined for debugging. Set the baud rate of both sides to 1M baud. The test program of the DSP node includes A / D sampling (simulating the position of the accelerator pedal) and a communication program. After the DSP runs, the data is collected and processed by a regular interrupt (20ms), and the signal is uploaded to the host computer (PC) through the CAN bus. On the other hand, the DSP automatically determines whether there are commands sent from the PC, such as battery voltage, battery current, accelerator pedal position, and operating mode. After the host computer receives the data, it processes it and gives it to the monitoring system for display. The test interface of the motor controller node is shown in Figure 3. Figure 3 Test interface of electric controller 5 Conclusion In order to meet the needs of electric vehicle monitoring, an electric vehicle simulation test platform based on CAN bus has been established. After being equipped with professional test instruments, a CAN-BUS laboratory can be established. The system has good scalability, which can easily increase the need to monitor the automotive electronic control unit (ECU). In addition, through the good connection between VB and ACCESS technology, it has real-time data storage, which provides conditions for later data processing. In order to ensure that each message can be collected and processed in time by related nodes, it is necessary to conduct in-depth research on the scheduling strategy of the message and further optimize network management, especially network fault diagnosis and processing mechanism.
