The accurate estimation of a lithium-ion battery’s state of charge (SOC) plays an important role in the operational safety and driving mileage improvement of electrical vehicles (EVs). The Adaptive Extended Kalman filter (AEKF) estimator is commonly used to estimate SOC; however, this method relies on the precise estimation of the battery’s model parameters and capacity. Furthermore, the actual capacity and battery parameters change in real time with the aging of the batteries. Therefore, to eliminate the influence of above-mentioned factors on SOC estimation, the main contributions of this paper are as follows: (1) the equivalent circuit model (ECM) is presented, and the parameter identification of ECM is performed by using the forgetting-factor recursive-least-squares (FFRLS) method; (2) the sensitivity of battery SOC estimation to capacity degradation is analyzed to prove the importance of considering capacity degradation in SOC estimation; and (3) the capacity degradation model is proposed to perform the battery capacity prediction online. Furthermore, an online adaptive SOC estimator based on capacity degradation is proposed to improve the robustness of the AEKF algorithm. Experimental results show that the maximum error of SOC estimation is less than 1.3%.

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.

The state of charge (SOC) estimation is one of the most important features in battery management system (BMS) for electric vehicles (EVs). In this article, a novel equivalent-circuit model (ECM) with an extra noise sequence is proposed to reduce the adverse effect of model error. Model parameters identification method with variable forgetting factor recursive extended least squares (VFFRELS), which combines a constructed incremental autoregressive and moving average (IARMA) model with differential measurement variables, is presented to obtain the ECM parameters. The independent open circuit voltage (OCV) estimator with error compensation factors is designed to reduce the OCV error of OCV fitting model. Based on the IARMA battery model analysis and the parameters identification, an SOC estimator by adaptive H-infinity filter (AHIF) is formulated. The adaptive strategy of the AHIF improves the numerical stability and robust performance by synchronous adjusting noise covariance and restricted factor. The results of experiment and simulation have verified that the proposed approach has superior advantage of parameters identification and SOC estimation to other estimation methods.

Accurately estimating the state of charge (SOC) of lithium-ion is very important to improving the dynamic performance and energy utilization efficiency. In order to reduce the influence of model parameters and system coloured noise on SOC estimation accuracy, this paper proposes the SOC estimation based on online identification. Based on the mixed simplified electrochemical model, the forgetting factor recursive least squares (FFRLS) method was used to identify the parameters online, and the SOC estimation was carried out in combination with Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF). Finally, the accuracy and feasibility of the method are verified by Federal Urban Driving Schedule (FUDS), the online identification and SOC estimation are carried out. The experimental results show that the SOC estimation of online parameter identification is more accurate, the system stability is faster and the error is smaller.

Accurate estimation of battery state of charge (SOC) is of great significance for extending battery life, improving battery utilization, and ensuring battery safety. Aiming to improve the accuracy of SOC estimation, in this paper, a temperature-dependent second-order RC equivalent circuit model is established for lithium-ion batteries, based on the battery electrical characteristics at different ambient temperatures. Then, a dual Kalman filter algorithm is proposed to estimate the battery SOC, using the proposed equivalent circuit model. The SOC estimation results are compared with the SOC value obtained from experiments, and the estimation errors under different temperature conditions are found to be within ±0.4%. These results prove that the proposed SOC estimation algorithm, based on a temperature-dependent second-order RC equivalent circuit model, provides accurate SOC estimation performance with high temperature adaptability and robustness.

As one of the most important features representing the operating state of power battery in electric vehicles (EVs), state of charge (SOC) and capacity estimation is a crucial assessment index in battery management system (BMS). This paper presents a fusion method of SOC and capacity estimation with identified model parameters. The equivalent circuit model (ECM) parameters are obtained online by variable forgetting factor recursive least squares (VFFRLS), which is based on incremental ECM analysis to respond to the inconsistent rates of parameters variation. The independent open-circuit voltage (OCV) estimation way is designed to reduce the effect of mutual coupling between OCV and ECM parameters. Based on the identified ECM parameters and OCV, a dual adaptive H infinity filter (AHIF) combined with strong tracking filter (STF) is proposed to estimate battery SOC and capacity. A new quadratic function as capacity error compensation is introduced to represent the relationship between capacity and OCV. The adaptive strategy of the AHIF can adjust noise covariance and restricted factor, while the STF can regulate prior state covariance by adding suboptimum fading factor. The results of experiment and simulation show the merits of proposed approach in SOC and capacity estimation.

The accurate estimation of the state of charge (SOC) and state of health (SOH) is of great significance to energy management and safety in electric vehicles. To achieve a good trade-off between real-time capability and estimation accuracy, a collaborative estimation algorithm for SOC and SOH is presented based on the Thevenin equivalent circuit model, which combines the recursive least squares method with a forgetting factor and the extended Kalman filter. First, the parameter identification accuracy is studied under a dynamic stress test (DST) and the federal urban driving schedule (FUDS) test at different ambient temperatures (0 °C, 25 °C, and 45 °C). Secondly, the FUDS test is used to verify the SOC estimation accuracy. Thirdly, two batteries with different aging degrees are used to validate the proposed SOH estimation algorithm. Subsequently, the accuracy of the SOC estimation algorithm is studied, considering the influence of updating the SOH. The proposed SOC estimation algorithm can achieve good performance at different ambient temperatures (0 °C, 25 °C, and 45 °C), with a maximum error of less than 2.3%. The maximum error for the SOH is less than 4.3% for two aged batteries at 25 °C, and it can be reduced to 1.4% after optimization. Furthermore, calibrating the capacity as the SOH changes can effectively improve the SOC estimation accuracy over the whole battery life.

In this paper, a novel model parameter identification method and a state-of-charge (SOC) estimator for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are proposed to improve the global accuracy of SOC estimation in the all SOC range (0–100%). Firstly, a subregion optimization method based on particle swarm optimization is developed to find the optimal model parameters of LIBs in each subregion, and the optimal number of subregions is investigated from the perspective of accuracy and computation time. Then, to solve the problem of a low accuracy of SOC estimation caused by large model error in the low SOC range, an improved extended Kalman filter (IEKF) algorithm with variable noise covariance is proposed. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed methods are verified by experiments on two kinds of batteries under three working cycles, and case studies show that the proposed IEKF has better accuracy and robustness than the traditional extended Kalman filter (EKF) in the all SOC range.
