State-of-Charge Prediction Model for Ni-Cd Batteries Considering Temperature and Noise

Abstract

The accurate prediction of the state of charge (SOC) of Ni-Cd batteries is critical for developing battery management systems for high-speed trains. To address the challenges of the large floating charge voltage of Ni-Cd batteries and the vulnerability of a battery’s SOC to environmental factors such as temperature, this paper proposes an adaptive adjustment mechanism-based particle swarm optimization (APSO) generalized regression neural network (GRNN) model. The proposed model introduces the concept of the particle aggregation degree to quantify the convergence of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. Furthermore, the speed weight of the particle swarm is adaptively adjusted using a comprehensive loss function to optimize the parameters of the GRNN model. To validate the proposed method, simulation experiments are conducted under test conditions using Ni-Cd batteries, and the prediction accuracies of various algorithms are compared. The experimental results demonstrate that the APSO-GRNN model significantly reduces the model’s prediction error. In addition, under the influence of different temperatures and noises, this method demonstrates strong robustness and high practical application value by accurately predicting the SOC, even with limited data samples.
