On-Board State of Health Estimation of Lithium Ion Batteries With Incremental Capacity Analysis Based on Gaussian Function
Accurately online state of health estimation is one of the key issues in battery management system (BMS), which enable the batteries function safely and efficiently. With excellent performance in in-situ degradation modes detection and precise state of health estimation modeling ability, incremental capacity (IC) analysis is widely used to analyze the situation of aged batteries. This paper discussed the difficulties in IC analysis application at first, and a robust method is then proposed, which parameterize the IC curve with Gaussian function. Battery cycle life experiment is conduced to validate the feasibility and accuracy of the proposed method. A capacity is constructed based the parameters of Gaussian function in each peak. The results show that the model estimation error is less than 3% of normalized capacity in each aging state, promising to be implemented in real BMS.
