The transmission system together with power management will simultaneously affect the fuel economy of the plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) with automated mechanical transmission (AMT). This paper strives to make three contributions to realize systematic design and optimization of the transmission and power management. Firstly, a design of experiment method is proposed to redesign the current transmission system of the PHEV with Optimal Latin Hypercube Design algorithm. Then, a co-optimization method is proposed to insight into the preferable speed ratios of the redesigned transmission system with multi-island genetic and dynamic programming algorithms. Finally, a Pontryagin's Minimum Principle-based self-identification controller is proposed to realize adaptive power management control, based on a significant finding that the constant solution of the co-state from off-line iteration optimization can be approximately identified by the mean value of the co-state with time-moving in the self identification controller. Results demonstrate that the current 6-speed ratio AMT can be reduced to 4, the fuel economy of the redesigned transmission system can be improved by 2.9% compared to the current transmission system and the self-identification controller can further improve the fuel economy of the PHEV compared to the conventional PI controller.
