ANTI-WINDUP CONTROL TECHNIQUES FOR OVERVOLTAGE MANAGEMENT IN FUEL CELL ELECTRIC VEHICLES

An overvoltage management system for a fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) includes a power sensor configured to measure a power output by a fuel cell system of the FCEV, wherein the fuel cell system is configured to generate electric current for recharging a high voltage battery system of the FCEV and a control system to determine a power command for the fuel cell system, receive the measured power output by the fuel cell system, calculate a difference between the measured power output and the power command, and based on the calculated difference, control an integrator of a feedback controller for the fuel cell system to prevent windup of the feedback controller and an overvoltage malfunction of the high voltage battery system.
