In this thesis, a reinforcement learning based power assisted mechanism is proposed for Light Electric Vehicle(LEV), which is an electrical bicycle driven by a human’s pedal force and electric motor. The proposed mechanism adaptively choose appropriate assisted power according to the environmental changes. By adaptively adjusting the assisted power after learning for LEV, not only energy utilization is improved but comfort of riding for pedalist is also satisfied. Simulations of proposed mechanism on LEV powered by battery are performed. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed mechanism satisfies the requirement of comfort of riding and achieve better energy utilization by comparing with other conventional power assisted mechanism.
