One-Shot Parameter Identification of the Thevenins Model for Batteries: Methods and Validation


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Parameter estimation is of foundational importance for various model-based battery management tasks, including charging control, state-of-charge estimation and aging assessment. However, it remains a challenging issue as the existing methods generally depend on cumbersome and time-consuming procedures to extract battery parameters from data. Departing from the literature, this paper sets the unique aim of identifying all the parameters offline in a one-shot procedure, including the resistance and capacitance parameters and the parameters in the parameterized function mapping from the state-of-charge to the open-circuit voltage. Considering the well-known Thevenins battery model, the study begins with the parameter identifiability analysis, showing that all the parameters are locally identifiable. Then, it formulates the parameter identification problem in a prediction-error-minimization framework. As the non-convexity intrinsic to the problem may lead to physically meaningless estimates, two methods are developed to overcome this issue. The first one is to constrain the parameter search within a reasonable space by setting parameter bounds, and the other adopts regularization of the cost function using prior parameter guess. The proposed identifiability analysis and identification methods are extensively validated through simulations and experiments.
