Online State of Health Estimation for Lithium-Ion Batteries Based on Support Vector Machine

In this paper, a novel state of health (SOH) estimation method based on partial charge voltage and current data is proposed. The extraction of feature variables, which are energy signal, the Ah-throughput, and the charge duration, is discussed and analyzed. The support vector machine (SVM) with radial basis function (RBF) as kernel function is applied for the SOH estimation. The predictive performance of the SOH by the SVM are performed with full and partial charging data. Experiment results show that the addressed approach enables estimating the SOH accurately for practical application.
