Abstract:
In order to improve the interior sound quality of electric vehicles (EVs) under acceleration and uniform speed conditions, to balance the comfort and dynamics of the interior sound, and to improve the accuracy and performance of the active sound generation system (ASGS), this article carries out the research related to the parameter design, sound calibration, evaluation methodology, and control system of the EV ASGS. Propose an in-vehicle sound design method focusing on three dimensions, including engine order composition, spectral energy distribution, and sound amplitude enhancement in the typical speed range, and determine the in-vehicle sound design scheme and the total sound value target. Focus on the sound parameter design, calibration and evaluation methods of EV ASGS considering the frequency response characteristics of the loudspeaker, sound amplitude control accuracy, sound quality, and psychoacoustic parameters, clarify the active sound parameter settings of EVs, complete the analysis of sound extraction methods, complete the engine order sound fitting, and design the ASGS of the EV interior by combining the subjective and objective evaluations. Develop the control software and hardware of the ASGS, complete the construction and accuracy verification of the ASGS based on the in-vehicle sound system, and realize the sound calibration of the ASGS under the static conditions of the real vehicle and the verification of the target achievement. The real-vehicle test shows that the ASGS reduces the sharpness of 1.0 acum and 0.52 acum under acceleration and constant speed conditions, respectively, and improves the comfort and dynamics of in-vehicle sound. The objective and subjective evaluation results show that the parameter design, selection and accuracy of the sound calibration and evaluation methods of the ASGS in the EV determines the accuracy and effect of the ASGS.

Feedback control systems
Linear feedback systems are theoretical models that simplify analysis and design. These systems operate under the principle that their output is directly proportional to their input within certain ranges. For instance, an amplifier in a control system behaves linearly as long as the input signal remains within a specific range. However, most physical systems exhibit inherent nonlinearity...
