Open-circuit voltage (OCV) is one of the most important parameters in determining state of charge (SoC) of power battery Thedirect measurement of it is costly and time consuming This paper describes an adaptive scheme that can be used to derive OCVof the power battery The scheme only uses the measurable input (terminal current) and the measurable output (terminal voltage)signals of the battery system and is simple enough to enable online implement Firstly an equivalent circuit model is employedto describe the polarization characteristic and the dynamic behavior of the lithium-ion battery the state-space representation ofthe electrical performance for the battery is obtained based on the equivalent circuit model Then the implementation procedureof the adaptive scheme is given also the asymptotic convergence of the observer error and the boundedness of all the parameterestimates are proven Finally experiments are carried out and the effectiveness of the adaptive estimation scheme is validated bythe experimental results
1 Introduction
Electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs)have been getting more and more attention in recent yearsbecause they have the potential of improving the fuel effi-ciency and reducing the pollutant emissions [1] The meritsof the high energy density high power density no memoryeffect and experience of low self-discharge when not in usecompared to other batteries make the lithium-ion batteriesthe main contender for energy storage in EVHEVs [2 3]
Open-circuit voltage (OCV) is one of the most importantparameters of a battery due to the intrinsic relationshipbetween state of charge (SoC) and OCV [4 5] whichis defined as the measured terminal voltage when batteryreaches steady-state To the authorsrsquo best knowledge thereonly exist two methods to get the value of OCV experimenttest and online estimation The former method is very timeconsuming because the battery needs rest 10 h or moreto reach the steady-state when charging or discharging ateach measurement Reference [6] has proposed a rapid testmethod and the pause time at different SoC needs only oneminute before the new experiment test is carried out Thevoltage that reaches steady-state during the pauses at different
SoC during discharging and charging is connected with lineand then the value of OCV takes the mean of the linesThis way can significantly save test time but however theconventional experiment method or the new experimentmethod is suitable for measurement in laboratory but notsuitable for online measurement The latter method is basedon the equivalent circuit model to estimate OCVThe voltageof the electromotive force [7] or the voltage across the bulkcapacitor [8 9] is used to denote OCV In this methodthe parameter (capacitors and resistances) values of theequivalent circuit are generally considered to be constantwhich contradict the fact that all parameter values usuallychange along with the SoC temperature and usage historychange and then the estimate precision will be degraded dueto the inaccuracy of parameter values Thus new theory andnew method are demanded to enrich the estimate methodand enhance the estimate accuracy Adaptive technology isundoubtedly the best choice to solve such problem
Battery is a complex electrochemical system the accuratemodeling for it is more difficult As the adaptive schemeis implemented easily and the modeling error is within anacceptable range the Thevenin battery model that includesone RC network is adopted hereThe state-space formulation

is obtained based on the equivalent circuit model and anadaptive observer is designed according to the feature ofthe state-space The designed adaptive observer togetherwith the update laws gives accurate estimate of the truestates but does not give the accurate estimate of the trueparameters which can only guarantee the boundedness ofall the parameter estimates Fortunately the estimate of someparameters change in the same proportion and the estimateof OCV is the quotient of them thus the accurate estimate ofOCV can be obtained
The remainder of this paper is organized as followsSection 2 presents the main results of this paper InSection 21 a dynamic equivalent circuit model is chosenand the state-space formulation is obtained based on theequivalent circuitmodel in Section 22 the adaptive observerand adaptive laws are designed Section 3 provides theexperimental results to demonstrate the correctness of theproposed adaptive estimate scheme This paper ends withsome conclusions
2 Modeling Adaptive Observerand Adaptive Laws Design
In this section an appropriate model of the battery is chosenfirstly and then the dynamic characteristic of the batterysystem is described by differential equations The designprocedure of the adaptive observer and adaptive laws will beshown step by step at last
21 Modeling The principle of selecting a battery model isas simple as possible but precise enough for the investigatedproblem The model chosen here is the first-order Theveninmodel (see Figure 1) which is simple yet accurate enough forthe control-oriented purpose in hybrid electric vehicles [1]The parallel RC-branch comprising 119877119901 and 119862119901 is used tomodel battery polarization effect 119877 denotes the ohmic resis-tance 119906oc denotes the open circuit voltage and 119906119905 denotes theterminal voltage 119868 denotes the terminal current and assumesit is positive when discharge otherwise is negative Based onthe Kirchhoff rsquos law the electrical behavior of the circuit canbe characterized as follows

Remark 1 The parameters 119877 119877119901 and 119862119901 are functions oftime SoC and temperature but the partial differential ofthem is treated as zero due to the reason that the change rateis very slow with respect to the signals sampling period (thesampling period is 1 s) For the same reason oc asymp 0
22 Adaptive Observer and Adaptive Laws Design This sub-section is devoted to the constructive design of the adaptiveobserver and the update laws To this end choose 1205791 =1119862119901119877119901 1205792 = (119877 + 119877119901)119862119901119877119901 1205793 = 119877 1205794 = (1119862119901119877119901)119906octhen (2) can be rewritten as
119905 = minus1205791119906119905 minus 1205792119868 minus 1205793119868 + 1205794 (3)
obviously 119906oc = 12057941205791Enlightened by [10] we design adaptive observer (4) for
system (3) as well as for system (2) as follows119906119905 = minus1205791119906119905 minus 1205792119868 minus 1205793
119868 + 1205794 + 119871 (119906119905 minus 119905) (4)
where 119905 is the estimate of 119906119905 and 119871 is the observer gain Theparameters 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) are estimates of the parameters120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) which will be adjusted adaptively such that119905 rarr 119906119905 as 119905 rarr infin
Subtracting (4) from (3) the dynamic of observer error119890 = 119906119905 minus 119905 is as follows
119890 = minus1205791119906119905 minus 1205792119868 minus 1205793119868 + 1205794 minus 119871119890 (5)
where 120579119894 = 120579119894 minus 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4)The following Barbalatrsquos lemma that will be used in the
development of our main results is given first
Lemma 2 (see [11]) If the differentiable function 119891(119905) has afinite limit as 119905 rarr infin and if 119891 is uniformly continuous then119891(119905) rarr 0 as 119905 rarr infin
The proof can be found in the reference and is omittedhere
To guarantee the asymptotical convergence of observererror system (5) and the boundedness of signals 120579119894 (119894 =1 4) we have the following theorem
Theorem 3 Consider battery system (2) as well as its para-metric form (3) design the observer (4) if one chooses theparameter update laws for 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) as
1205791 = minus1198881119890119906119905
1205792 = minus1198882119890119868
1205793 = minus1198883119890
1198681205794 = 1198884119890
119888119894 gt 0 119894 = 1 4
(6)
and the observer gain 119871 gt 0 then the signal 119890 is convergent tozero as 119905 rarr infin and all the signals 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) areuniformly bounded

Thus 119881(119905) is a nonincreasing function of time that is
sup119905ge0
119881 (119905) le 119881 (0) (9)
This proves that 119890 and 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) remain bounded for all119905 ge 0 namely

The derivative of is (119905) = 2119871119890(1205791119906119905 + 1205792119868 + 1205793 119868 minus 1205794 +119871(119906119905 minus 119905)) this shows that (119905) is bounded since 119890 and120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) are bounded Hence (119905) is uniformlycontinuous After the application of Barbalatrsquos lemma weobtain the conclusion that 119890 rarr 0 as 119905 rarr infin
From (10) and the definition 120579119894 = 120579119894 minus120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) weknow that 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) are bounded
Thus we obtain the conclusion of the asymptotical con-vergence to zero of the signal 119890 and the uniform boundednessof the signals 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4)
3 Experimental Results

31 Parameter Extraction The extraction experiment thatcan obtain the parameters value is firstly carried out Theexperimental sample is a large size lithium iron phosphatebattery The nominal capacity and voltage of the selectedbattery is 50Ah and 512 V respectively The tests are carriedout on an AVL e-Storage Tester The tester is capable ofcharging and discharging the battery at a maximum rate of285A It can operate in several modes such as alternatingcurrent and constant current It comprises power currentvoltage and temperature measurements The battery testerand the data logger are connected to a PC through a bussystem The host computer with the installed software canprogram the experiment procedure Several limits for thebattery can be defined which are necessary in order to avoiddamage for example caused by overcharging
The pulsed-discharge experiments are carried out at dif-ferent SoC and the terminal voltage is monitored simultane-ously (see Figure 2) The battery parameters can be extractedthrough the transient response
The terminal voltage response at different SoC can befitted as in the following form
119906119905 (119905) = 1198812 + 1198881 (1 minus 119890minus1198882119905) (11)
where 1198881 and 1198882 are the least-squares curve fitting coefficients1198812 is as shown in Figure 2 Then the parameters value ofbattery model (see Figure 1) can be derived from
119877 =1198812 minus 1198811

The parameter values identified for the battery module atdifferent SoC are given in Table 1 From Table 1 it can be seenthat the parameters 119877 119877119901 and 119862119901 are all varying with theSoC changes which further confirms that the system stateestimation needs adaptive scheme

2 Abstract and Applied Analysis
is obtained based on the equivalent circuit model and anadaptive observer is designed according to the feature ofthe state-space The designed adaptive observer togetherwith the update laws gives accurate estimate of the truestates but does not give the accurate estimate of the trueparameters which can only guarantee the boundedness ofall the parameter estimates Fortunately the estimate of someparameters change in the same proportion and the estimateof OCV is the quotient of them thus the accurate estimate ofOCV can be obtained
The remainder of this paper is organized as followsSection 2 presents the main results of this paper InSection 21 a dynamic equivalent circuit model is chosenand the state-space formulation is obtained based on theequivalent circuitmodel in Section 22 the adaptive observerand adaptive laws are designed Section 3 provides theexperimental results to demonstrate the correctness of theproposed adaptive estimate scheme This paper ends withsome conclusions
2 Modeling Adaptive Observerand Adaptive Laws Design
In this section an appropriate model of the battery is chosenfirstly and then the dynamic characteristic of the batterysystem is described by differential equations The designprocedure of the adaptive observer and adaptive laws will beshown step by step at last
21 Modeling The principle of selecting a battery model isas simple as possible but precise enough for the investigatedproblem The model chosen here is the first-order Theveninmodel (see Figure 1) which is simple yet accurate enough forthe control-oriented purpose in hybrid electric vehicles [1]The parallel RC-branch comprising 119877119901 and 119862119901 is used tomodel battery polarization effect 119877 denotes the ohmic resis-tance 119906oc denotes the open circuit voltage and 119906119905 denotes theterminal voltage 119868 denotes the terminal current and assumesit is positive when discharge otherwise is negative Based onthe Kirchhoff rsquos law the electrical behavior of the circuit canbe characterized as follows

From (1) the derivative of 119906119905 can be obtained as

Remark 1 The parameters 119877 119877119901 and 119862119901 are functions oftime SoC and temperature but the partial differential ofthem is treated as zero due to the reason that the change rateis very slow with respect to the signals sampling period (thesampling period is 1 s) For the same reason oc asymp 0
22 Adaptive Observer and Adaptive Laws Design This sub-section is devoted to the constructive design of the adaptiveobserver and the update laws To this end choose 1205791 =1119862119901119877119901 1205792 = (119877 + 119877119901)119862119901119877119901 1205793 = 119877 1205794 = (1119862119901119877119901)119906octhen (2) can be rewritten as
119905 = minus1205791119906119905 minus 1205792119868 minus 1205793119868 + 1205794 (3)
obviously 119906oc = 12057941205791Enlightened by [10] we design adaptive observer (4) for
system (3) as well as for system (2) as follows119906119905 = minus1205791119906119905 minus 1205792119868 minus 1205793
119868 + 1205794 + 119871 (119906119905 minus 119905) (4)
where 119905 is the estimate of 119906119905 and 119871 is the observer gain Theparameters 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) are estimates of the parameters120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) which will be adjusted adaptively such that119905 rarr 119906119905 as 119905 rarr infin
Subtracting (4) from (3) the dynamic of observer error119890 = 119906119905 minus 119905 is as follows
119890 = minus1205791119906119905 minus 1205792119868 minus 1205793119868 + 1205794 minus 119871119890 (5)
where 120579119894 = 120579119894 minus 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4)The following Barbalatrsquos lemma that will be used in the
development of our main results is given first
Lemma 2 (see [11]) If the differentiable function 119891(119905) has afinite limit as 119905 rarr infin and if 119891 is uniformly continuous then119891(119905) rarr 0 as 119905 rarr infin
The proof can be found in the reference and is omittedhere
To guarantee the asymptotical convergence of observererror system (5) and the boundedness of signals 120579119894 (119894 =1 4) we have the following theorem
Theorem 3 Consider battery system (2) as well as its para-metric form (3) design the observer (4) if one chooses theparameter update laws for 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) as
1205791 = minus1198881119890119906119905
1205792 = minus1198882119890119868
1205793 = minus1198883119890
1198681205794 = 1198884119890
119888119894 gt 0 119894 = 1 4
(6)
and the observer gain 119871 gt 0 then the signal 119890 is convergent tozero as 119905 rarr infin and all the signals 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) areuniformly bounded

Thus 119881(119905) is a nonincreasing function of time that is
sup119905ge0
119881 (119905) le 119881 (0) (9)
This proves that 119890 and 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) remain bounded for all119905 ge 0 namely

The derivative of is (119905) = 2119871119890(1205791119906119905 + 1205792119868 + 1205793 119868 minus 1205794 +119871(119906119905 minus 119905)) this shows that (119905) is bounded since 119890 and120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) are bounded Hence (119905) is uniformlycontinuous After the application of Barbalatrsquos lemma weobtain the conclusion that 119890 rarr 0 as 119905 rarr infin
From (10) and the definition 120579119894 = 120579119894 minus120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) weknow that 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) are bounded
Thus we obtain the conclusion of the asymptotical con-vergence to zero of the signal 119890 and the uniform boundednessof the signals 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4)
3 Experimental Results

31 Parameter Extraction The extraction experiment thatcan obtain the parameters value is firstly carried out Theexperimental sample is a large size lithium iron phosphatebattery The nominal capacity and voltage of the selectedbattery is 50Ah and 512 V respectively The tests are carriedout on an AVL e-Storage Tester The tester is capable ofcharging and discharging the battery at a maximum rate of285A It can operate in several modes such as alternatingcurrent and constant current It comprises power currentvoltage and temperature measurements The battery testerand the data logger are connected to a PC through a bussystem The host computer with the installed software canprogram the experiment procedure Several limits for thebattery can be defined which are necessary in order to avoiddamage for example caused by overcharging
The pulsed-discharge experiments are carried out at dif-ferent SoC and the terminal voltage is monitored simultane-ously (see Figure 2) The battery parameters can be extractedthrough the transient response
The terminal voltage response at different SoC can befitted as in the following form
119906119905 (119905) = 1198812 + 1198881 (1 minus 119890minus1198882119905) (11)
where 1198881 and 1198882 are the least-squares curve fitting coefficients1198812 is as shown in Figure 2 Then the parameters value ofbattery model (see Figure 1) can be derived from
119877 =1198812 minus 1198811
119868 119877119901 =

The parameter values identified for the battery module atdifferent SoC are given in Table 1 From Table 1 it can be seenthat the parameters 119877 119877119901 and 119862119901 are all varying with theSoC changes which further confirms that the system stateestimation needs adaptive scheme

From (10) and the definition 120579119894 = 120579119894 minus120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) weknow that 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) are bounded
Thus we obtain the conclusion of the asymptotical con-vergence to zero of the signal 119890 and the uniform boundednessof the signals 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4)
3 Experimental Results
There are three purposes for the experiment the first one isto verify the adaptive observer which can give an accurateestimate of the system states the second one is to verify theestimates of the parameters 1205791 and 1205794 which change with thesame scaling proportionThe fact that OCV can be estimatedby 12057941205791 will be verified at last

31 Parameter Extraction The extraction experiment thatcan obtain the parameters value is firstly carried out Theexperimental sample is a large size lithium iron phosphatebattery The nominal capacity and voltage of the selectedbattery is 50Ah and 512 V respectively The tests are carriedout on an AVL e-Storage Tester The tester is capable ofcharging and discharging the battery at a maximum rate of285A It can operate in several modes such as alternatingcurrent and constant current It comprises power currentvoltage and temperature measurements The battery testerand the data logger are connected to a PC through a bussystem The host computer with the installed software canprogram the experiment procedure Several limits for thebattery can be defined which are necessary in order to avoiddamage for example caused by overcharging
The pulsed-discharge experiments are carried out at dif-ferent SoC and the terminal voltage is monitored simultane-ously (see Figure 2) The battery parameters can be extractedthrough the transient response
The terminal voltage response at different SoC can befitted as in the following form
119906119905 (119905) = 1198812 + 1198881 (1 minus 119890minus1198882119905) (11)
where 1198881 and 1198882 are the least-squares curve fitting coefficients1198812 is as shown in Figure 2 Then the parameters value ofbattery model (see Figure 1) can be derived from
119877 =1198812 minus 1198811
119868 119877119901 =
1198881

The parameter values identified for the battery module atdifferent SoC are given in Table 1 From Table 1 it can be seenthat the parameters 119877 119877119901 and 119862119901 are all varying with theSoC changes which further confirms that the system stateestimation needs adaptive scheme

within twelve seconds although the parameter values oforiginal system and observer system are different
Figures 4(a)ndash4(d) are the true and estimated values ofthe parameters 120579119894 (119894 = 1 4) from which we can see thatthe estimated values of the parameters are bounded Assumethat the scaling of the estimated values of 1205791 and 1205794 is 1199041 =12057911205791 and 1199044 = 12057941205794 accordingly Figure 4(e) shows that thedifference of 1199041 and 1199044 is approximately zero In other words
1199041 asymp 1199044 so the estimated value of 119906oc can be obtained from12057941205791
Figures 5(a) and 5(b) are the true and estimated batteryOCV and the estimated error It can be seen that the adaptiveobserver designed here can estimate the OCV accurately
