Abstract
Multi-dimensional sensing is the key characteristic of next generation smart batteries. But the existing researches on multi-sensor fusion methods haven't focused on algorithm mechanism, the global optimal solution has not been built, the superiority has not been proved theoretically. For the first time, this research built the global optimal structure of multi-sensor fusion state estimation algorithm. Specifically, the state of charge (SoC) estimation problem of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries is studied, cooperating with voltage signal, expansion force (EF) signal is introduced. Firstly, a normalization algorithm is introduced to overcome the drift of EF under different cycles and different pre-tightening force. Secondly, the non-monotonic relationship of LFP battery's EF-SoC curve is addressed with a forced monotone transformation method in the transition areas. Then the global optimal multi-sensor fusion method is built, theoretical reductions are carried out to prove the higher precision of multi-sensor fusion methods compared to single-signal methods. Experiments are conducted to verify the effectiveness of the methods, even under the most serious situations, the fusion methods exhibit powerful correction ability, and the root mean square error can be controlled within 3 %. Moreover, the proposed algorithms shows strong tolerance to error sources.
