A Temporal Fusion Memory Network-Based Method for State-of-Health Estimation of Lithium-Ion Batteries

Abstract

As energy storage technologies and electric vehicles evolve quickly, it becomes increasingly difficult to precisely gauge the condition (SOH) of lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) during rapid charging scenarios. This paper introduces a novel Time-Fused Memory Network (TFMN) for SOH estimation, integrating advanced feature extraction and learning techniques. Both directly measured and computationally derived features are extracted from the charge/discharge curves to simulate real-world fast-charging conditions. This comprehensive process captures the complex dynamics of battery behavior effectively. The TFMN method utilizes one-dimensional convolutional neural networks (1DCNNs) to capture local features, refined further by a channel self-attention module (CSAM) for robust SOH prediction. Long short-term memory (LSTM) modules process these features to capture long-term dependencies essential for understanding evolving battery health patterns. A multi-head attention module enhances the model by learning varied feature representations, significantly improving SOH estimation accuracy. Validated on a self-constructed dataset and the public Toyota dataset, the model demonstrates superior accuracy and robustness, improving performance by 30–50% compared to other models. This approach not only refines SOH estimation under fast-charging conditions but also offers new insights for effective battery management and maintenance, advancing battery health monitoring technologies.
