Abstract
The accurate estimation of battery health conditions is a crucial challenge for development of battery management systems due to the degradation of cathode and anode materials. In this paper, a fusion of deep learning model and feature analysis methods is employed to approach accurate estimation for state of health (SOH) and remaining useful life (RUL). The differential thermal voltammetry (DTV) signal analysis is executed to pre-process the datasets from Oxford University. A deep learning model is constructed with LSTM network as the core, combined with Bayesian optimization and dropout technique. This work shows that the deep learning model could approach the SOH and RUL early estimation with the mean absolute error of RUL maintained around 0.5%. It is potential that this deep learning model, combined with DTV signal analysis methods, could approach early prediction and estimation of battery SOH and RUL, contributing to the development of the next-generation high-energy-density and highly safety commercial batteries.
