Description
Summary:This paper presents the outcomes of a research work consisting in the development of an Electric Vehicle Assistant (EVA), which creates and stores a driver profile where are contained the driving behaviours related with the EV energy consumption, the EV battery charging information, and the performed routes. This is an application for mobile devices that is able to passively track the driver behaviour and to access several information related with the EV in real time. It is also proposed a range prediction approach based on probability to take into account unpredictable effects of personal driving style, traffic or weather.
