Fractional-Order Equivalent-Circuit Model Identification of Commercial Lithium-Ion Batteries

Abstract

The precise identification of electrical model parameters of Li-Ion batteries is essential for efficient usage and better prediction of the battery performance. In this work, the model identification performance of two metaheuristic optimization algorithms is compared. The algorithms in comparison are the Marine Predator Algorithm (MPA) and the Partial Reinforcement Optimizer (PRO) to find the optimal model parameter values. Three fractional-order (FO) electrical equivalent circuit models (ECMs) of Li-Ion batteries with different levels of complexity are used to fit the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) data operating under different states of charge (SoC) and different operating temperatures. It is found that there is a tradeoff between ECM complexity, identification accuracy, and precision.
