Open-circuit voltage (OCV) is one of the most important parameters in determining state of charge (SoC) of power battery. The direct measurement of it is costly and time consuming. This paper describes an adaptive scheme that can be used to derive OCV of the power battery. The scheme only uses the measurable input (terminal current) and the measurable output (terminal voltage) signals of the battery system and is simple enough to enable online implement. Firstly an equivalent circuit model is employed to describe the polarization characteristic and the dynamic behavior of the lithium-ion battery; the state-space representation of the electrical performance for the battery is obtained based on the equivalent circuit model. Then the implementation procedure of the adaptive scheme is given; also the asymptotic convergence of the observer error and the boundedness of all the parameter estimates are proven. Finally, experiments are carried out, and the effectiveness of the adaptive estimation scheme is validated by the experimental results.

Lithium-ion battery on-line monitoring is challenging due to the unmeasurable characteristic of its internal states. Up to now, the most effective approach for battery monitoring is to apply advanced estimation algorithms based on equivalent circuit models. Besides, a usual method for estimating slowly varying unmeasurable parameters is to include them in the state vector with the zero-time derivative condition, which constitutes the so-called extended equivalent circuit model and has been widely used for the battery state and parameter estimation. Although various advanced estimation algorithms are applied to the joint estimation and dual estimation frameworks, the essence of these estimation frameworks has not been changed. Thus, the improvement of the battery monitoring result is limited. Therefore, a new battery monitoring structure is proposed in this paper. Firstly, thanks to the superposition principle, two sub-models are extracted. For the nonlinear one, an observability analysis is conducted. It shows that the necessary conditions for local observability depend on the battery current, the initial value of the battery capacity, and the square of the derivative of the open circuit voltage with respect to the state of charge. Then, the obtained observability analysis result becomes an important theoretical support to propose a new monitoring structure. Commonly used estimation algorithms, namely the Kalman filter, extended Kalman filter, and unscented Kalman filter, are selected and employed for it. Apart from providing a simultaneous estimation of battery open circuit voltage, more rapid and less fluctuating battery capacity estimation are the main advantages of the new proposed monitoring structure. Numerical studies using synthetic data have proven the effectiveness of the proposed framework.

Abstract For reusing automotive lithium-ion battery, an in-house battery management system is developed. To overcome the issues of life cycle and capacity of reused battery, an online function of estimating battery’s internal resistance and open-circuit voltage based on adaptive control theory are applied for monitoring life cycle and remained capacity of battery pack simultaneously. Furthermore, ultracapacitor is integrated in management system for sharing peak current to prolong life span of reused battery pack. The discharging ratio of ultracapacitor is adjusted manually under Pulse-Width-Modulation signal in battery management system. In case study in 52V LiMnNiCoO2 platform, results of estimated open-circuit voltage and internal resistances converge into stable values within 600(s). These two parameters provide precise estimation for electrical capacity and life cycle. It also shows constrained voltage drop both in the cases of 25% to 75% of ultracapacitors discharging ratio compared with single battery. Consequently, the Life-cycle detection and extending functions integrated in battery management system as a total solution for reused battery are established and verified.
