The article proposes a novel method for online SOC estimation using particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to optimize model parameters for high accuracy.
The state-of-charge (SOC) estimation is an enabling technique for the efficient management and control of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). This article proposes a novel method for online SOC estimation, which manifests itself with both high accuracy and low complexity. Particularly, the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is exploited to optimize the model parameters to ensure high modeling accuracy. Following this endeavor, the PSO algorithm is used to tune the error covariances of extended Kalman filter (EKF) leveraging the early stage segmental data of LIB utilization. Within this PSO-based tuning framework, the searching boundary is derived by scrutinizing the error transition property of the system. Experiments are performed to validate the proposed two-step PSO-optimized SOC estimation method. Results show that even by using a simple first-order model, the proposed method can give rise to a high SOC accuracy, which is comparative to those using complex high-order models. The proposed method is validated to excavate fully the potential of model-based estimators so that the computationally expensive model upgrade can be avoided.

Jiaqiang Tian, Xinghua Liu, Siqi Li, Zhongbao Wei, Xu Zhang, Gaoxi Xiao, Peng Wang

Summary: This study proposes a state-of-health (SOH) attenuation model considering driving mileage and seasonal temperature for battery health estimation, which is significant for battery pack management and maintenance. The variable forgetting factor recursive least square (VFFRLS) algorithm is used for battery model parameter identification and the extended Kalman-particle filter (EPF) algorithm is proposed for online capacity estimation. The proposed model and algorithm are verified using actual vehicle data over nine months. The experimental results demonstrate the accurate estimation of model parameters and capacity through the proposed algorithm, and the decrease in average capacity of the battery module with total mileage. The compensation of monthly driving mileage and ambient temperature factors effectively improves the accuracy of the SOH model.
