State of Charge Estimation for Lithium-Ion Power Battery Based on H-Infinity Filter Algorithm

Abstract

To accurately estimate the state of charge (SOC) of lithium-ion power batteries in the event of errors in the battery model or unknown external noise, an SOC estimation method based on the H-infinity filter (HIF) algorithm is proposed in this paper. Firstly, a fractional-order battery model based on a dual polarization equivalent circuit model is established. Then, the parameters of the fractional-order battery model are identified by the hybrid particle swarm optimization (HPSO) algorithm, based on a genetic crossover factor. Finally, the accuracy of the SOC estimation results of the lithium-ion batteries, using the HIF algorithm and extended Kalman filter (EKF) algorithm, are verified and compared under three conditions: uncertain measurement accuracy, uncertain SOC initial value, and uncertain application conditions. The simulation results show that the SOC estimation method based on HIF can ensure that the SOC estimation error value fluctuates within ±0.02 in any case, and is slightly affected by environmental and other factors. It provides a way to improve the accuracy of SOC estimation in a battery management system.
