Successive-approximation algorithm for estimating capacity of Li-ion batteries
This paper proposes a capacity estimation algorithm for Li-ion batteries (LIBs) using the successive approximation method. Model-based capacity estimation method can be applied to a variety of current profiles because the capacity is calculated from state of charge (SOC) estimated accurately using the functional relationship between open circuit voltage (OCV) and the SOC. However, with aging, the OCV-SOC table changes, which worsens the estimation accuracy. Therefore, additional experiments are necessary to compensate the errors whenever the capacity should be identified. To overcome this restriction, this paper proposes an algorithm for estimating both the capacity and the corresponding OCV-SOC table based on the preliminary OCV-SOC tables obtained from other batteries. The capacity and the table are updated successively based on the prior capacity estimate. This work proposes two algorithms for voltage characteristics: OCV measurement and SOC estimation cases. The former uses the measured OCV to calculate the SOCs directly, while the latter estimates the SOCs using a dual extended Kalman filter (DEKF). Aging data from five LIB packs are analyzed, and the capacity estimation errors are less than 2.2% for the OCV measurement case and 3.06% until 20% loss of capacity estimate for SOC estimation case.
