State of Charge and Range Estimation of Lithium-ion Batteries in Electric Vehicles
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Switching from fossil-fuel-powered vehicles to electric vehicles has become an international focus in the pursuit of combatting climate change. Regardless, the adoption of electric vehicles has been slow, in part, due to range anxiety. One solution to mitigating range anxiety is to provide a more accurate state of charge (SOC) and range estimation. SOC estimation of lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicle application is a well-researched topic, yet minimal tools and code exist online for researchers and students alike. To that end, a publicly available Kalman filter-based SOC estimation function is presented. The MATLAB function utilizes a second-order resistor-capacitor equivalent circuit model. It requires the SOC-OCV (open circuit voltage) curve, internal resistance, and equivalent circuit model battery parameters. Users can use an extended Kalman filter (EKF) or adaptive extended Kalman filter (AEKF) algorithm and temperature-dependent battery data. A practical example is illustrated using the LA92 driving cycle of a Turnigy battery at multiple temperatures ranging from -10C to 40C. Current range estimation methods suffer from inaccuracy as factors including temperature, wind, driver behaviour, battery voltage, current, SOC, route/terrain, and much more make it difficult to model accurately. One of the most critical factors in range estimation is the battery. However, most models thus far are represented using equivalent circuit models as they are more widely researched. Another limitation is that any machine learning-based range estimation is typically based on historical driving data that require odometer readings for training. A range estimation algorithm using a machine learning-based voltage estimation model is presented. Specifically, the long short-term memory cell in a recurrent neural network is used for the battery model. The model is trained with two datasets, classic and whole, from the experimental data of four Tesla/Panasonic 2170 battery cells. All network training is completed on SHARCNET, a resource provided by Canada Compute to researchers. The classically trained network achieved an average root mean squared error (RMSE) of 44 mV compared to 34 mV achieved by the network trained on the whole dataset. Based on the whole dataset, all test cases achieve an end range estimation of less than 5 km with an average of 0.29 km.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
