Evaluation of Advances in Battery Health Prediction for Electric Vehicles from Traditional Linear Filters to Latest Machine Learning Approaches
In recent years, there has been growing interest in Li-ion battery State-of-Health (SOH) estimation due to its critical role in ensuring the safe and reliable operation of Electric Vehicles (EVs). Effective energy management and accurate SOH prediction are essential for the reliability and sustainability of EVs. This paper presents an in-depth review of SOH estimation techniques, starting with an overview of seminal methods that lay the theoretical groundwork for battery modeling and SOH prediction. The review then evaluates recent advancements in Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques, emphasizing their contributions to improving SOH estimation. Through a rigorous screening process, the paper systematically assesses the evolution of these advanced methods, addressing specific research questions to evaluate their effectiveness and practical implications. Key findings highlight the potential of hybrid models that integrate Equivalent Circuit Models (ECMs) with Deep Learning approaches, offering enhanced accuracy and real-time performance. Additionally, the paper discusses limitations of current methods, such as challenges in translating laboratory-based models to real-world conditions and the computational complexity of some prospective methods. In conclusion, this paper identifies promising future research directions aimed at optimizing hybrid models and overcoming existing constraints to advance SOH estimation and battery management in Electric Vehicles.
