Variable Fractional-Order Equivalent Circuit Model for Lithium-Ion Battery via Chaotic Adaptive Fractional Particle Swarm Optimization Method

Abstract

A variable fractional-order equivalent circuit model is proposed to accurately describe the dynamic characteristics of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Firstly, a fractional impedance model (FIM) is established, such that the fractional-order (FO) is a polynomial function of the LIB state of charge (SOC). Then, a chaotic adaptive fractional particle swarm optimization (CAFPSO) method is derived to identify the parameters of the FIM. Experiments reveal the reliability of the novel approach through the root-mean-squared error (RMSE) and the mean absolute error (MAE) of the LIB terminals voltage, yielding the values 8.99 mV and 4.56 mV, respectively. This translates into accuracy improvements of 22.5% and 34.4% for the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm and 57.9% and 72.8% for the adaptive fractional particle swarm optimization (AFPSO) algorithm, respectively
