Abstract
The remaining useful life (RUL) prediction of Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is of great importance to the health management of electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles. However, fluctuation and nonlinearity occur during battery degradation, resulting in difficulties in both model adaptability and RUL prediction accuracy. To face the challenge, we propose a sequence decomposition and deep learning integrated prognostic approach for the RUL prediction of LIBs. Complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition and principal component analysis are applied to separate the local fluctuations and the global degradation trend from the battery aging data. The long short-term memory neural network combined with fully connected layers is designed as a transfer learning model. The hyperparameter optimization and finetuning strategy of the model is developed based on offline training data. In addition, to further realize the reasonable and effective LIB second-life applications, the RUL corresponding to different failure thresholds is predicted. The performance of the proposed integrated approach in degradation modeling and RUL prediction is evaluated on three publicly available LIB datasets with different degradation characteristics, as well as compared with other prediction algorithms under the same conditions. The illustrative results demonstrate that the proposed approach can achieve accurate, adaptive, and robust prediction for both capacity trajectory and RUL.
