Energy storage battery state of health estimation based on singular value decomposition for noise reduction and improved LSTM neural network

Abstract

Accurate estimation of the State of Health (SOH) of batteries is important for intelligent battery management in energy storage systems. To solve the problems of poor quality of data features as well as the difficulty of model parameter adjustment, this study proposes a method for estimating the SOH of lithium batteries based on denoising battery health features and an improved Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural network. First, in this study, three health features related to SOH decrease were selected from the battery charge/discharge data, and the singular value decomposition technique was applied to the noise reduction of the features to improve their correlation with the SOH. Then, the whale optimization algorithm is improved using cubic chaotic mapping to enhance its global optimization-seeking capability. Then, the Improved Whale Optimization Algorithm (IWOA) is used to optimize the model parameters of LSTM, and the IWOA-LSTM model is applied to the battery SOH estimation. Finally, the model proposed in this research is validated against the Center for Advanced Life Cycle Engineering (CALCE) battery dataset. The experimental results show that the prediction error of battery SOH by the method proposed in this study is less than 0.96%, and the prediction error is reduced by 49.42% compared to its baseline model. The method presented in the article achieves accurate estimation of the SOH, providing a reference for practical engineering applications.
