Systems and methods for range prediction

Abstract:

The system for range predication includes a pattern module, a consumption module, and a prediction module. The pattern module identifies a travel pattern of trips of a vehicle and receives vehicle data for the time period from the computing device of the vehicle. The travel pattern includes a path that is repeatedly traveled between an origin and a destination during a time period. The vehicle data includes historical range estimates for the vehicle along the path. The consumption module calculates energy consumption of the vehicle during the time period based on the vehicle data and determines actual remaining range values based on the energy consumption of the vehicle. The prediction module generates predictive range estimates along the path based on the actual remaining range and provides the predictive range estimates for a current trip.
