1. A method for monitoring and optimizing operation of a charging terminal of an electric vehicle, the terminal including connection means configured to be connected to an electric vehicle for electric charging, the method comprising:
generating an output voltage equal to a first direct current (DC) voltage value; connecting the electric vehicle to the charging terminal, the output voltage switching from the first DC voltage value to a second DC voltage value; checking an ability of the charging terminal to perform charging; authorizing charging of the electric vehicle by modulating the output voltage between a positive value equal to the second voltage value and a negative value equal to opposite of the first voltage value, the modulation is of pulse width modulation (PWM) type having a duty ratio fixed according to a maximum authorized charge current; checking an ability of the electric vehicle to be recharged by monitoring a positive value of the modulated output voltage, the positive value of the output voltage switching from the second voltage value to a third voltage value when the vehicle is able to be recharged; supplying a charge voltage to the electric vehicle by modulating the output voltage between a positive value equal to the third voltage value and the negative value equal to the opposite of the first voltage value, the duty ratio of the modulation enabling the maximum authorized charge current to be set to a first value; initializing a first timer concomitantly with authorization of charging of the electric vehicle, the first timer starting at a time the modulating the output voltage between the positive value equal to the second voltage value and the negative value equal to the opposite of the first voltage value starts; reading a first elapsed diagnosis time between:
initialization of the first timer, andswitching of the output voltage from the second voltage value to the third voltage value; comparing a value of the first elapsed diagnosis time with standard values recorded in a database; determining a type of charger of the electric vehicle according to a comparative state between the first elapsed diagnosis time and the standard values; and taking characteristics of the charger of the identified electric vehicle into account to locally optimize energy management.
