It is difficult for existing methods to solve the real-time accuracy problem of battery module-level state of charge (SoC) and the impact of single battery inconsistency at the same time under dynamic operating conditions. The integration of data-driven technology and traditional algorithms is insufficient, resulting in limited error compensation effect. In view of the accuracy of the SoC estimation of electric vehicle (EV) battery packs under dynamic driving conditions, this paper proposes a hybrid SoC estimation method for battery management system (BMS) based on cloud master-slave architecture. The hybrid framework combines direct measurement methods (Coulomb counting method, open circuit voltage method), state estimation algorithms (extended Kalman filtering, traceless Kalman filtering), and data-driven technologies (neural networks, NARMA L-2 models), and verifies its effectiveness through hardware-in-the-loop experiments. The research results show that under dynamic operating conditions, the hybrid Coulomb counting+neural network (CC+NN) method has the fastest error convergence speed and is better than other methods. In addition, the proposed cloud master-slave BMS architecture significantly improves system reliability through real-time cross-verification of the SoC data of the advanced algorithms of the on-board BMS (slave device) and the master device. The experiment is based on the FTP-75 driving cycle and verifies the high efficiency of this method in practical applications.The final analysis shows that the CC+NN combination exhibits optimal error suppression ability in complex scenarios, and provides a high-precision solution for electric vehicle battery management.

Lithium-ion batteries are highly sensitive to temperature, with excessive heat leading to accelerated aging, reduced cycle life, and safety risks such as thermal runaway. Traditional thermal management systems often struggle to maintain optimal battery temperature, especially under high ambient temperatures or dynamic operating conditions. This paper proposes a novel reinforcement learning (RL)-based control method for the coupled thermal management system of a power battery and air conditioning system in a Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV). The system integrates the battery cooling circuit with the air conditioning system via a heat exchanger, eliminating the need for a separate radiator. The Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG) algorithm is employed to control the water pump speed, optimizing battery temperature in real-time. Experimental results under New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) conditions at 40°C ambient temperature demonstrate that the RL-controlled pump responds faster than the Model Predictive Control (MPC) algorithm, allowing the battery temperature to reach the target temperature of 28°C 1 min earlier with a maximum fluctuation of only 0.8°C. The RL-controlled pump consumes 4 W h more energy than the MPC-controlled pump, while the compressor energy consumption is only 1.68% higher. Additionally, the temperature fluctuations in the passenger cabin under RL control are only 0.1°C higher than under MPC, ensuring passenger comfort. This study highlights the potential of RL-based control for improving the efficiency and stability of integrated thermal management systems in electric vehicles.

INTRODUCTIONDue to rising concerns about environmental pollution and global warming, modern society has made sustainability one of its top priorities.To ease these worries and move forward to a sustainable future, global energy strategies emphasise the switch from fossil fuels to renewable energy (RE) sources.The ability of RE to be efficiently used to manage energy consumption and cut carbon emissions makes it essential in the commercial, industrial, and residential sectors [1].Major contributors to carbon emissions include electricity and heat production, transport, manufacturing and construction, as well as agriculture [2].The transportation sector is among the leading causes of environmental pollution, contributing over one-third carbon dioxide emissions, of which vehicle transportation accounts for over 70% [3].Technological disruptions in the transportation sector facilitate decarbonisation because of rising environmental pollution and concerns about global warming.This transformation includes a move toward adopting electric vehicles (EVs), which have several benefits, such as shorter payback period and longer lifespan, helping to reduce CO2 emissions and change the way transportation will be in the future [4].With the promise of lower emissions and less reliance on oil, EVs have drawn much interest as a leading the way for environmental sustainability and emissions-free mobility [4], [5].Artificial intelligence (AI) is the most fascinating and discussed technology in the current decade for its nature to mimic human intelligence.The field of AI has shown an upward trend of growth in the 21 st century (from 2000 to 2015) [6].Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the study of creating machines that can perceive, analyze, comprehend, and react like humans.Simply said, the ultimate goal of artificial intelligence (AI) is to extend and argue humanity's capacity and efficiency in the work of changing nature and regulating society through intelligent machines.Simultaneously, artificial intelligence technologies that enhance the system's overall capabilities have significant importance.The legal standing of AI technology is examined in this study.In the current societal development stage, AI is rapidly developing its capabilities as a future technology.This research study aims to provide an overview of AI and explain how it relates to the concepts of SOC and SOH.A difficulty at the junction of AI is data integration.AI finds extensive application in the automotive, logistics, healthcare, stock trading, robotics, finance, transportation, and educational domains.AI techniques provide promise for the vehicle, the infrastructure, the driver, or the transport user-and especially for the interactions among them.Transportation is changing as a result of the EV industry's adoption of AI, particularly deep learning (DL) and machine learning (ML), which enhances user experience, efficiency, sustainability, and safety.

Battery Monitoring is very important for most of the electric vehicle(EV) and battery energy storage system (BESS) since the safety, operation and even the life of the passenger/operator depends on the battery system. Checking and controlling the status of battery within their specified safe operating conditions is exactly the major function of battery management system (BMS). The state of charge (SOC) is a critical parameter of a Li-ion battery, an accurate on-line estimation of the SOC is important for forecasting the EV driving range and BESS power dispatching. A widely used method to estimate SOC is based on coulomb counting, due to the uncertainty, including unit-to-unit variation, measurement noise, operational uncertainties, and model inaccuracy, it's difficult to estimate the SOC by using coulomb counting, an online inference of open-circuit voltage (OCV) is used to calibrate the SOC, however, a relatively flat OCV curve of LiFePO4 will lead to the error of SOC is large. In this paper, an algorithm using the derivation curve (dV/dQ vs Q) to calibrate the SOC on-line is bring out. The SOC estimation has been implemented using coulomb counting and derivation curve methods thereby eliminating the limitation of the stand-alone coulomb counting method. Finally, by utilizing the actual operation data, experiments and numerical table were conducted, show that this SOC calibrate algorithm based on characteristic curve has better robust performance of the practical application of LiFePO4 battery energy storage system.

Efforts to decarbonize the world have shown a quick increase in electric vehicles (EVs), limiting increasing pollution. During this electric transportation revolution, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) play a vital role in storing energy. To determine the range of an electric vehicle (EV), the state of charge and the state of health (SOH) of the battery pack is essential. Access to high-quality data on battery parameters is a crucial challenge for researchers working in the energy storage domain due primarily to confidentiality constraints on manufacturers of batteries and EVs. This paper proposes a hybrid framework for predicting the state of a lithium-ion battery for electric vehicles (EV). Electric vehicles are growing worldwide because of their environmental and sustainability advantages. Batteries are replacing fossil fuels in electric vehicles. In order to prevent failure, Li-ion batteries in electric vehicles should be operated and controlled in a controlled and progressive manner to ensure increased efficiency and safety. An extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) algorithm is used in this paper to estimate the state of health (SOH) of lithium-ion batteries used in electric vehicles. The model is subjected to error analysis to optimize the battery’s performance parameter. The model undergoes an error analysis to optimize its performance parameters. Furthermore, a state of health (SOH) estimation method based on the extreme gradient boosting algorithm with accuracy correction is proposed here to improve the accuracy of state of health (SOH) estimation for lithium-ion batteries. To describe the aging process of batteries, we extract several features such as average voltages, voltage differences, current differences, and temperature differences. The extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) model for estimating the state of health (SOH) of lithium-ion batteries is based on the ensemble learning algorithm’s higher prediction accuracy and generalization ability. Experimental results suggest that the boundary gradient lifting algorithm model is capable of more accurate prediction.

Growing response for Electric Vehicles (EV) across the world is an implication of techno-economical efforts targeted to mitigate the challenges related to fossil fuels. Energy storage powering EVs is a very critical component. A battery pack used as energy storage in EVs uses many battery cells connected in series and parallel.

Such a system referred to as ‘Battery Management System’ (BMS) ensures a safe operating envelope while increasing battery power delivery capabilities and improving lifetime. The cell voltage balancing along with the State of Charge (SOC) and State of Health (SOH) monitoring are some of the critical functions of BMS. For EVs to become the best techno-commercial alternative for gasoline-based vehicles, BMS and battery packs will play a very crucial role. This paper highlights the state of the art of BMS and illustrates the passive cell balancing network design for Lithium-Iron-Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries based on Digital Signal Processor (DSP) TMS320F28379D controller. Some key simulation and hardware results are presented to demonstrate the SOC estimation using the Coulombs counting method and battery cell balancing mechanism.
