A novel collaborative multiscale weighting factor‐adaptive Kalman filtering method for the time‐varying whole‐life‐cycle state of charge estimation of lithium‐ion batteries

Abstract

Summary Accurate state of charge (SOC) estimation is essential for the whole‐life‐cycle safety guarantee and protection of lithium‐ion batteries, which is quite difficult to realize. In this study, a novel weighting factor‐adaptive Kalman filtering (WF‐AKF) method is proposed for the accurate estimation of SOC with a collaborative model for parameter identification. An improved bipartite electrical equivalent circuit (BEEC) model is constructed to describe the dynamic characteristics combined with the mathematical correction of the time‐varying factors. The model parameters are identified online, corresponding to various SOC levels and temperature conditions. Considering the internal resistances, ambient temperature, and complex current rate variations, an adaptive multi‐time scale iterative calculation model is constructed and combined with the real‐time estimation and correction strategies. The maximum closed‐circuit voltage (CCV) traction error is 0.36% and 0.24% for the main pulse‐current charging and discharging processes, respectively. The proposed WF‐AKF algorithm stabilizes the large initial SOC estimation error by tracking the actual value with a maximum error of 0.46% under the complex working condition. The SOC estimation is accurate and robust to the time‐varying characteristics and working conditions even when the initial error is large, providing a safety protection theory for lithium‐ion batteries.

Battery hysteresis compensation modeling and state‐of‐charge estimation adaptive to time‐varying ambient temperature conditions

“…It is worth noting that the change of ambient temperature shows strong uncertainty, which is mainly caused by the complex and changeable use environment of the battery. 19 Temperature mainly affects important parameters such as battery capacity and internal impedance. 20 Specifically, related studies have shown that the capacity varies by up to 15% under different ambient temperatures.…”
