State of health estimation for lithium-ion battery based on particle swarm optimization algorithm and extreme learning machine

Lithium-ion battery State of Health (SOH) estimation is an essential issue in battery management systems. In order to better estimate battery SOH, Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) is used to establish a model to estimate lithium-ion battery SOH. The Swarm Optimization algorithm (PSO) is used to automatically adjust and optimize the parameters of ELM to improve estimation accuracy. Firstly, collect cyclic aging data of the battery and extract five characteristic quantities related to battery capacity from the battery charging curve and increment capacity curve. Use Grey Relation Analysis (GRA) method to analyze the correlation between battery capacity and five characteristic quantities. Then, an ELM is used to build the capacity estimation model of the lithium-ion battery based on five characteristics, and a PSO is introduced to optimize the parameters of the capacity estimation model. The proposed method is validated by the degradation experiment of the lithium-ion battery under different conditions. The results show that the battery capacity estimation model based on ELM and PSO has better accuracy and stability in capacity estimation, and the average absolute percentage error is less than 1%.
