With the development of new energy vehicle technology, battery management systems used to monitor the state of the battery have been widely researched. The accuracy of the battery status assessment to a great extent depends on the accuracy of the battery model parameters. This paper proposes an improved method for parameter identification and state-of-charge (SOC) estimation for lithium-ion batteries. Using a two-order equivalent circuit model, the battery model is divided into two parts based on fast dynamics and slow dynamics. The recursive least squares method is used to identify parameters of the battery, and then the SOC and the open-circuit voltage of the model is estimated with the extended Kalman filter. The two-module voltages are calculated using estimated open circuit voltage and initial parameters, and model parameters are constantly updated during iteration. The proposed method can be used to estimate the parameters and the SOC in real time, which does not need to know the state of SOC and the value of open circuit voltage in advance. The method is tested using data from dynamic stress tests, the root means squared error of the accuracy of the prediction model is about 0.01 V, and the average SOC estimation error is 0.0139. Results indicate that the method has higher accuracy in offline parameter identification and online state estimation than traditional recursive least squares methods.

A small hydroponic system that can use sustainable energy such as solar power has been developed. However, the amount of power generated is not constant, and in the case of unstable weather, enough power cannot be obtained. Therefore, it is necessary to store the generated energy in a battery. In order to design low-cost charging equipment, it is necessary to use a smaller battery and to estimate the remaining charge capacity (state of charge: SOC) accurately. To provide an accurate SOC estimation for such systems, a fusion of CI (current integral) and OCV (open circuit voltage) methods is proposed. When using this method, it is necessary to frequently disconnect the electronic load. In these experiments, the optimum disconnection duration, the effects on plants of frequent battery disconnection, and cutting off of the lighting were investigated.

Open-Circuit-Voltage (OCV) is an essential part of battery models for state-of-charge (SOC) estimation. In this paper, we propose a new parametric OCV model, which considers the staging phenomenon during the lithium intercalation/deintercalation process. Results show that the new parametric model improves SOC estimation accuracy compared to other existing OCV models. Moreover, the model is shown to be suitable and effective for battery state-of-health monitoring. In particular, the new OCV model can be used for incremental capacity analysis (ICA), which reveals important information on the cell behavior associated with its electrochemical properties and aging status.

Paper focuses on the topic related to State of Charge (SOC) estimation of the battery modules. The design issues of the electronic circuit suited for very accurate voltage and current measurement used for evaluation of the SOC parameters of battery module (NexSys 12 V) are presented. The SOC evaluation is not described here, but the principles are based on the open-circuit voltage measurement in combination with the coulomb counting method. Both methods are considered within the practical design of the measuring circuit of traction lead-acid batteries connected in series (3 cells). The circuit proposal is verified by the simulation model and consequently by the experimental measurement. Mutual comparisons are done for each battery within the module. The results show a very high accuracy between the simulation and measurement, while the relative tolerance varies from - 7 % to 1 % within wide measuring ranges.

The open circuit voltage (OCV) and model parameters are critical reference variables for a lithium-ion battery management system estimating the state of charge (SOC) accurately. However, the polarization effect reduces the accuracy of the OCV test, and the model parameters coupled to the polarization voltage increase the non-linearity of the cell model, all challenging SOC estimation. This paper presents an OCV curve fusion method based on the incremental and low-current test. Fusing the incremental test results without polarization effect and the low current test results with non-linear characteristics of electrodes, the fusion method improves the OCV curve’s accuracy. In addition, we design a state observer with model parameters and SOC, and the unscented Kalman filter (UKF) method is employed for co-estimation of SOC and model parameters to eliminate the drift noise effects. The SOC estimation root mean square error (RMSE) of the proposed method achieves 0.99% and 1.67% in the pulse constant current test and dynamic discharge test, respectively. Experimental results and comparisons with other methods highlight the SOC estimation accuracy and robustness of the proposed method.

The battery State of Charge (SoC) estimation is one of the basic and significant functions for Battery Management System (BMS) in Electric Vehicles (EVs). The SoC is the key to interoperability of various modules and cannot be measured directly. An improved Extended Kalman Filter (iEKF) algorithm based on a composite battery model is proposed in this paper. The approach of the iEKF combines the open-circuit voltage (OCV) method, coulomb counting (Ah) method and EKF algorithm. The mathematical model of the iEKF is built and four groups of experiments are conducted based on LiFePO4 battery for offline parameter identification of the model. The iEKF is verified by real battery data. The simulation results with the proposed iEKF algorithm under both static and dynamic operation conditions show a considerable accuracy of SoC estimation.
