Abstract: A method for controlling automated driving operations of a vehicle includes determining vehicle origin and destination data, and generating a graphical representation of a road network with multiple candidate routes between the vehicle's origin and destination. Road-level data, including speed, turn angle, and/or gradient data, is received for each candidate route, and respective total energy uses are estimated for the vehicle to traverse across the candidate routes. Multiple candidate driving strategies, each having respective speed and acceleration profiles, are determined for the candidate route with the lowest estimated total energy use. An optimal candidate driving strategy is selected through a cost evaluation of the associated speed and acceleration profiles and forward movement simulations of the vehicle over a prediction horizon. Command signals are transmitted to the vehicle's steering and/or powertrain systems to execute control operations based on the optimal driving strategy and the candidate route with the lowest energy use.

Abstract: Operating a subject vehicle equipped with an adaptive cruise control system includes setting initial states for control parameters, including setting a desired vehicle speed and determining a desired following gap range, wherein the desired following gap range is associated with a lead vehicle. Operation is controlled via the adaptive cruise control system based upon the initial states for the control parameters. Operation also includes monitoring for presence of the lead vehicle. Upon detecting presence of the lead vehicle, an actual following gap is determined between the subject vehicle and the lead vehicle, and the initial states of the control parameters associated with the adaptive cruise control system are adjusted based upon the actual following gap between the subject vehicle and the lead vehicle, and the desired following gap range. Operation is controlled via the adaptive cruise control system based upon the adjusted initial states of the control parameters.

Abstract: Presented are intelligent vehicle systems and control logic for predictive charge planning and powertrain control of electric-drive vehicles, methods for manufacturing/operating such systems, and electric-drive vehicles with smart charge planning and powertrain control capabilities. Systems and methods of AI-based predictive charge planning for smart electric vehicles use machine-learning (ML) driver models that draws on available traffic, location, and roadway map information to estimate vehicle speed and propulsion torque requirements to derive a total energy consumption for a given trip. Systems and methods of AI-based predictive powertrain control for smart hybrid vehicles use ML driver models with deep learning techniques to derive a drive cycle profile defined by a preview route with available traffic, geopositional, geospatial, and map data. ML-generated driver models are developed with collected data to replicate driver behavior and predict the drive cycle profile, including predicted vehicle speed, propulsion torque, and accelerator/brake pedal positions for a preview route.

Abstract: Disclosed are model-based combustion timing systems and control logic for engine assemblies, methods for making/operating such engine assemblies, and motor vehicles with spark-ignited engine assemblies implementing model-based combustion timing. A method for controlling torque output of an engine assembly includes receiving a requested torque demand for the engine, and determining a current fuel command and valve timing for the engine's power cylinder(s). A first math model is used to determine a desired CA50 based on the requested torque demand, a power cylinder indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP), an expander cylinder IMEP, and the current fuel command/valve timing. A second math model is used to determine a maximum brake torque (MBT) CA50 based on power cylinder and expander cylinder IMEPs, and current fuel command/valve timing. An engine control unit determines a final spark timing based on a correlation between the desired CA50 and MBT CA50, modified by a spark timing gain.
