Hybrid low-dimensional limiting state of charge estimator for multi-cell lithium-ion batteries
<|reference_start|>Hybrid low-dimensional limiting state of charge estimator for multi-cell lithium-ion batteries: The state of charge (SOC) of lithium-ion batteries needs to be accurately estimated for safety and reliability purposes. For battery packs made of a large number of cells, it is not always feasible to design one SOC estimator per cell due to limited computational resources. Instead, only the minimum and the maximum SOC need to be estimated. The challenge is that the cells having minimum and maximum SOC typically change over time. In this context, we present a low-dimensional hybrid estimator of the minimum (maximum) SOC, whose convergence is analytically guaranteed. We consider for this purpose a battery consisting of cells interconnected in series, which we model by electric equivalent circuit models. We then present the hybrid estimator, which runs an observer designed for a single cell at any time instant, selected by a switching-like logic mechanism. We establish a practical exponential stability property for the estimation error on the minimum (maximum) SOC thereby guaranteeing the ability of the hybrid scheme to generate accurate estimates of the minimum (maximum) SOC. The analysis relies on non-smooth hybrid Lyapunov techniques. A numerical illustration is provided to showcase the relevance of the proposed approach.<|reference_end|>
