Abstract：The fundamental problem of the power control for the driving of a dual-motor drive electric tracked vehicle is analyzed. The tracked vehicle and its electric drive system are mathematically modeled. Power control schemes of the dual-motor drive system is put forward, designed, and analyzed, including the distributed control system and the two control schemes speed-regulation and torque-regulation. The field experiment shows that the two types of drive control schemes realize the driving function of the vehicle feasibly and effectively. Obviously the comprehensive controller and two motors’ controllers are closely coupled in the “speed-regulation” control scheme, in which they must coordinate very well to guarantee the control. Contrastingly, in the “torque-regulation” control scheme, the comprehensive controller and two motors’ controller are not dependent closely when the accuracy and response of the torque controlling is guaranteed. The latter is simpler and more practical than the former.
