Abstract

The accurate estimation of the state of charge (SOC) of lithium-ion batteries is crucial for real-time monitoring and safety control. This paper proposes a novel method for estimating SOC by optimizing the kernel extreme learning machine (KELM) with a radial basis function (RBF) kernel using an enhanced pelican optimization algorithm (POA), termed TWCS-PO-KELM. This approach addresses the challenges of real-time estimation and low accuracy in conventional methods. This paper improves the basic POA by incorporating Tent chaotic mapping to diversify the initial population, a nonlinear inertia weight factor to improve local optimization, and a Cauchy variation alongside a sparrow alert mechanism to enhance the algorithm's robustness and optimization performance. The KELM model, based on the RBF kernel, enables efficient non-linear mapping of the input features, improving the accuracy of SOC estimation. Experimental results demonstrate that the TWCS-PO-KELM model offers superior SOC estimation with a mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.143%, root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.172%, and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of 1.344% under BBDST conditions, showcasing its strong tracking ability and robustness in comparison to other methods.
