Abstract:
Continuous and accurate state-of-charge estimation is essential for optimal reliability and performance in electric vehicle battery management systems. This work reviews state-of-charge estimation strategies, from straightforward methods like lookup tables and ampere-hour counting to advanced mathematical models, such as electrochemical, observer-assisted equivalent circuit, and impedance-based models that capture cell dynamics. Additionally, data-driven models including fuzzy logic, neural networks, and support vector machines are explored for their ability to leverage large datasets. This review highlights the strengths and limitations of each method, emphasizing the specific contexts in which these strategies can be applied to achieve optimal effectiveness.
