Abstract
The problem of vehicle span maximization and path switchinghas been well studied. There exists number of approaches towards maximizing the span of electric vehicles. However, the methods suffer to achieve higher performance in maximizing the span of the vehicle. Towards this, an efficient Location centric power factor path switching model (LPPSM) is presented in this article. As the electric vehicles has the limited span which is being affected by various factors like speed, wind, traffic, number of junctions, distance and so on. It is necessary to perform path switching towards maximizing the span of the vehicle. The model fetches the location of the vehicle at all the time; it finds the routes and measures the traffic at each route. According to the factors like number of junctions, traffic, distance, speed of the vehicle, the method estimates the Span Maximization Support (SMS) for various routes. According to the value of SMS, the method selects the most optimal route to reach the destination. Also, the method focused on maximizing the span of the vehicle and performs efficient path switching. The proposed method improves the performance of span maximization and path switching.
