Abstract
This study presents a hybrid method for state-of-charge (SOC) estimation of lithium-ion batteries using LSTM neural networks optimized with genetic algorithms (GA), combined with Coulomb Counting (CC) as an initial estimator. Experimental tests were conducted using medium-voltage (48–72 V) lithium-ion battery packs under standardized driving cycles (NEDC and WLTP). The proposed method enhances prediction accuracy under dynamic conditions by recalibrating the LSTM output with CC estimates through a dynamic fusion parameter . The novelty of this approach lies in the integration of machine learning and physical modeling, optimized via evolutionary algorithms, to address limitations of standalone methods in real-time applications. The hybrid model achieved a mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.181%, outperforming conventional estimation strategies. These findings contribute to more reliable battery management systems (BMS) for electric vehicles and second-life applications.
