Power management of hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) is an important operational factor for HEV to enhance fuel economy and reduce emissions. Optimal control for HEV requires the knowledge of entire driving cycle and elevation profile to obtain the optimal control strategy over fixed driving cycle. In this paper, the traffic knowledge extracted from intelligent transportation systems (ITSs),global positioning systems (GPSs) and geographical information systems (GISs) is used for predicting the knowledge of the future driving cycle, and the real-time optimal control strategy based on dynamic programming in a moving window is investigated in order to minimize fuel consumption. A simulation study was conducted for two driving cycles, and the results showed significant improvement in fuel economy compared with a rule-based control. Furthermore, the results showed that the distance of the moving window has obvious effect on the fuel economy.
