1 Introduction

As a kind of ideal power supply energy which can bereused lithium-ion battery has been widely used in manyfields However the performance of lithium battery willdecline over time which will not only lead to system fail-ure but also lead to serious safety accidents [1] Workingcondition monitoring performance degradation assessmentand remaining useful life (RUL) prediction of lithium-ionbattery are of great significance for improving the safetyand reliability of the battery system and preventing batteryaccidents The RUL prediction of lithium-ion battery canbe divided into two steps battery health status recognitionand performance prediction In terms of prediction modelZou [2] used parameter degradation model and tracelessparticle filter algorithm to predict RUL of battery discoveringthat the method for predicting the RUL of the battery was

it is advantageous to accurately reflect the state of batteryperformance and improve the prediction accuracy of residuallife by extracting characteristic parameters from multipleperspectives and fusing them into a health index and thispaper focuses on performance degradation assessment oflithium batteries

To avoid problems such as insufficient maintenance orover-maintenance of lithium-ion batteries it is necessary tocarry out condition-based maintenance for batteries Thequantitative assessment of the degree of performance degra-dation is a prerequisite for condition-based maintenance oflithium-ion batteries It is difficult to measure the residualcapacity of batteries in real time [5] many researcherstry to assess the performance of the battery using theapproach of analyzing variations in the discharge voltageSbarufatti proposed a method that combines particle filtersand radial basis function neural networks to predict thedischarge duration of lithium-ion batteries [6] Xu proposedan effective model based on state space for modeling theperformance degradation of batteries The model adoptsan analysis method based on the sequentially observeddischarging profiles and uses the expectation-maximization(EM) algorithm in conjunction with the extended Kalmanfilter (EKF) algorithm to estimate and update the modelparameters and state [7] Xu also analyzed the distributionof discharge voltage and combined the discharge process andthe degradation process to develop a hierarchical model forcomprehensive prediction of discharge duration in differentcycles and the remaining effective cycles [8] Widodo usedthe sample entropy of the discharge voltage to predict theperformance of the battery [9]

Although some of the methods proposed in the abovestudies can be used tomake effective assessment they still fallshort of the expectation of accurately and comprehensivelyassessing the degradation process of the batteries This isbecause most of these methods only process a single fea-ture of the discharge voltage which is not very sensitiveto variations in the battery state To solve this challengethis paper proposes a method based on the fusion ofmultiple features for assessing the performance degradationof lithium-ion batteries In fact the multi-feature fusionapproach has been widely used in assessing the performanceof bearings but relatively fewer attempts have been madeto adopt this approach for assessing the performance ofbatteries

In researching the performance degradation assessmenteffectively extracting multi-dimensional features and estab-lishing an effective degradation assessment model are twocritical issues A lot of work has been done with regard tothe first critical issue Principal component analysis (PCA)is one of the most widely used data compression algorithmsDong used PCA to reduce the dimensions of the parametersin bearing degradation process and they obtained goodresults [10] Yu proposed a method based on local preservingprojection (LPP) to reduce the dimensions of the multi-dimensional features in the time domain frequency domainand time-frequency domain The method is applied to theperformance degradation assessment of bearings and verifiedthe feasibility of the method through experiments [11] Cai

proposed a spectral regression (SR) method which is anew type of model for supervised unsupervised and semi-supervised regression Using SR to reduce the dimensionsmakes it possible to solve the projection function usingthe regression framework thereby circumventing the thornyissue of decomposing the features of the dense matrix [12]With regard to the second critical issue Yu proposed amethod based on multiple two-layer sparse autoencoderneural networks to fuse the features and used experimentto verify the superiority of this method [13] Yu appliedthe Gaussian mixture model (GMM) model to the healthassessment of bearings and achieved quantitative analysisof performance degradation of the bearings [11] Batistaproposed an algorithm based on improved support vectormachine (SVM) reducing the error rate in diagnosis [14]Ai proposed a fusion method based on n-dimensionalcharacteristic parameters distance [15] Hassani proposed afusion model utilizes zSlices-based representation of generaltype-2 fuzzy logic systems to combine different SVMs [16]Zhang proposed an exergy-based fusion method to fusemultiple transient states with the information of multiplesensors obtained in state monitoring [17] Shao proposeda feature fusion method based on the deep belief network(DBN) taking advantage of the excellent learning ability ofDBN [18] Zhou proposed an NCA-based feature extractionmethod to reduce dimensionality and used a coupled hiddenMarkov model based on multichannel data acquisition forfault diagnosis [19] In addition Wang [20] also summarizedmethods to evaluate the health indicators based on Markovmodel self-organizingmapping wavelet change and fuzzy c-means transformation All of the abovemethods have yieldedgood assessment results

On the basis of the above analysis this paper proposesa performance degradation assessment method based onthe fusion of multiple features First the discharge voltagesignals of lithium-ion batteries under real-time monitoringare analyzed to obtain features in the dimensions of timedomain and complexity Then the multiple features undergoan SR processing to reduce the number of dimensions andeliminate redundancy based on these processes GMM isestablished to model the health status of batteries Thusthe degree of performance degradation of batteries can bequantitatively assessed using the Bayesian inference-baseddistance (BID) metric The experimental results show thatthe assessment method proposed in this paper can be usedto monitor the degradation process of lithium-ion batteriesmore effectively and to improve the accuracy of conditionmonitoring of batteries To the best of our knowledge singlecharacteristic parameters are used in most studies of lithiumbattery status assessment However there is redundancyand difference among parameters so the characterization oflithium battery state is not accurate enough Therefore inthis paper the characteristic parameters are extracted fromthe perspectives of statistical measurement and complexityafter that the extracted features are fused by the GMM-BID model proposed in this paper Compared with a singleparameter the health index can characterize the performancedegradation degree of lithium battery more accurately

2 Feature Extraction

The capacity of battery is a parameter that can accuratelyevaluate the performance but it is difficult to obtain directlywhich can only be obtained in the laboratory or offline stateTherefore it is necessary to select some parameters thatcan be monitored online to estimate the degradation stateof lithium-ion batteries During the charging process thecharging mode of the battery is generally fixed that is thecharging voltage and current are also fixed The dischargecurrent depends on the system payload which can affect thehealth of the battery but cannot reflect the degradation ofthe health state of the battery At present most studies havefound that the discharge voltage of the battery will tend todegrade with an increase in the number of discharge cycles[6ndash11 21] Therefore this paper focuses on analyzing theeasy-to-measure discharge voltage of lithium-ion batteries tomake a more accurate assessment of the battery performancedegradation

21 Time Domain Features The voltage values of all of thedischarge cycles of a lithium-ion batteries can be regarded asa time series of voltage It is necessary to analyze this timeseries to extract the features that reflect the statistical patternof the time series The most common method for analyzinga time series is time domain analysis Charakopoulos AK[22] estimated mainly nonlinear measures such as mutualinformation combinedwith descriptive statisticsmeasures aswell as some linear and nonlinear dynamic detectors such asHurst exponent detrended fluctuation analysis and Hjorthparameters

With the increase of charging and discharging timesof lithium-ion battery its internal resistance and energyloss increase which shows that the discharge duration willbe shorter and shorter after the battery is fully chargedTherefore the article adopted the method of statistical mea-surement such as the mean and RMS values to describe thechanging trend of battery discharge voltage Also regardingthe trend of the battery voltage at the same time intervalincreasing with the number of charge and discharge cyclesfixed-interval voltage difference can be constructed to char-acterize the degree of battery performance degradation

211 Statistical Measurement There are some conventionaltime domain features based on statistical measurement(see Table 1)

212 Fixed-Interval Voltage Difference When a series of dis-charge voltage values are obtained by sampling the dischargevoltage at fixed intervals the voltage discrepancy betweentwo neighboring samples is called the fixed-interval voltagedifference As the battery is used successive times (that isthe number of discharge cycles of a lithium-ion batteryincreases) the battery ages continuously which is reflectedby the increasingly shorter discharge duration During eachdischarge cycle the discharge voltage of a battery decreasesfrom a higher voltage value to a lower value

Each fixed time interval is denoted as 119905 and the fixed-interval voltage difference in the 119894-th discharge cycle is

where 119899 is the number of discharge cycles

22 Complexity Entropy is a way to describe the complexityof a time series or the degree of internal chaos Originallya concept in physics the concept of entropy graduallyexpanded with the development of information theory andhas become an indicator of system instability Entropy is nowwidely used in system state monitoring and signal analysisAt present the various forms of entropy (such as informationentropy sample entropy and approximate entropy) are usedas the characteristic parameters for measuring complexity

Derived from the approximate entropy the sampleentropy provides a better entropy representation in sig-nal analysis Compared with other metrics such as relateddimensions sample entropy is better suited for classifyingcomplex systems including characterization of the certaintyand randomness of the time series of finite data points [9]Sample entropy has been applied in bearing fault diagnosis[23ndash25] Therefore in this paper we chose sample entropyas a useful complement to the characteristic parameters Thealgorithm works in the following way(1) Assume that there is an 119873-dimensional time series119906(1) 119906(2) 119906(119873) obtained via sampling at fixed timeintervals(2) Define the associated parameters 119898 119903 of the sampleentropy where the real number 119898 is the length of thecomparative vector and the real number 119903 is the metric ofsimilarity(3) Reconstruct the 119898-dimensional vector 119883(1) 119883(2) 119883(119873minus119898+1)where119883(119894) = [119906(119894) 119906(119894+1) 119906(119894+119898minus1)]

32 Performance Degradation Assessment Model Based onFusion of Multiple Features On the basis of the aboveanalysis this paper proposes a method based on the fusion ofmultiple features for assessing the performance of lithium-ionbatteries The flowchart of the method is shown in Figure 1

Figure 1 shows that the performance degradation assess-ment process is divided into an offline phase and onlinephase The specific steps of each phase are as follows

(1) Off-Line Phase (A) Extract initial features from thetraining data anduse the SRmethod to reduce the dimensionsof the original features

(B) Select the health state training data to establish aGMMmodel and obtain the parameters of the model

(C) Calculate the BID value of the test data using theGMM parameters to describe the performance degradationprocess of lithium-ion batteries

(2) Online Phase (A) Extract initial features from the trainingdata and use the SR method to reduce the dimensions of theoriginal features

(B) Calculate the BID value between the test data and thehealth state GMM

4 Lithium-Ion Battery PerformanceDegradation Assessment Experiment andResults Analysis

41 Data Source A case calculation experiment was carriedout to verify the reliability and effectiveness of the proposedmethod in assessing the performance degradation of lithium-ion batteries In the experiment the experimental data setswere provided by NASA [28] A set of four Li-ion batteries( 5 6 7 and 18) were run through 3 different operationalprofiles (charge discharge and impedance) at room tem-perature Charging was carried out in a constant current(CC) mode at 15A until the battery voltage reached 42Vand then continued in a constant voltage (CV) mode untilthe charge current dropped to 20mA Discharge was carriedout at a constant current (CC) level of 2A until the batteryvoltage fell to 27V 25V 22V and 25V for batteries 5 6 7and 18 respectively Impedancemeasurement was carried outthrough an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS)frequency sweep from 01Hz to 5kHz Repeated charge anddischarge cycles result in accelerated aging of the batterieswhile impedance measurements provide insight into theinternal battery parameters that change as aging progressesThe experiments were stopped when the batteries reachedend-of-life (EOL) criteria which was a 30 fade in ratedcapacity (from 2Ahr to 14Ahr)

In order to save space the batteries No 5 No6 and No18 of the four batteries are randomly selected for analysisFigure 2 depicts the relationship between the dischargevoltage and the discharge time of the three batteries As seenin the figure the different discharge cycles share a commonpattern In the early stage of discharge the discharge voltagedeclines gradually and the discharge time has a gentle slopeThe slope of the decline increases gradually over time Inthe last stage of discharge the voltage drops rapidly Asthe number of discharge cycles increases the slope of thedecline of the discharge voltage becomes increasingly steepThe variation of the discharge voltage in each discharge cyclediffers from the voltage variation in any other discharge cyclehence it is necessary to assess and manage the battery

42 Comparison of Clustering Ability Concerning DegradationDegree In the experiment 132 original data sets of batterynumber 18 are extracted After a normalization process 25sets of normal state data 25 sets of slight degradation dataand 25 sets of severe degradation data are used to verify

43 Results of Performance Degradation Assessment Sevenrepresentative features (namely root mean square (RMS)standard deviation mean skewness kurtosis fixed-intervalvoltage difference and sample entropy) are used to assessthe performance degradation of battery numbers 5 6 and 18using the existing data sets After several trials the numberof the length of the comparative vector and the metric ofsimilarity of sample entropy are set to 119898 = 1 119903 = 01respectively The variation curves of the six features areshown in Figure 4 The following can be observed fromthe diagrams For the same battery different features exhibitdifferent variation trends In terms of overall trends RMSmean and kurtosis tend to decline with fluctuations whereasthe standard deviation skewness fixed-interval voltage

difference and sample entropy tend to rise with fluctuationsTherefore the extracted features could be used to characterizethe performance of Lithium-ion batteries however thesefeatures have some drawbacks Standard deviation skewnessand kurtosis fluctuate violently and are not sensitive to thedegradation of performance making it difficult to determinethe degree of degradation It is observed that the standarddeviation skewness kurtosis and sample entropy of batterynumbers 5 and 6 have a ldquorun-inrdquo period in the earlystage during which the values fluctuate violently without asignificant trend When the battery is diagnosed during thisldquorun-inrdquo period it is hard to see a trend towards degradation

To enable more accurate online monitoring of the batterydegradation this paper proposes a quantitative indicatorobtained by fusing multiple multi-dimensional features toeffectively describe battery degradation

As soon as the battery is used it begins to degrade Inorder to reduce the error of the health state model the first4 of all cycles were selected for training On the basis ofthe above analysis the first 4 sets of health state data ofbattery numbers 5 6 and 18 are chosen to establish theGMM model A GMM with 2 Gaussian components is usedto model the normal state data and the first two dimensionsafter dimension reduction by SR are used as the input dataAfter the GMM model is trained with the normal state

data all of the test data is input into the model in groupsand one BID value is calculated using each data group asshown in Figures 5 6 and 7 Figure 5 shows that the BIDvalue of battery number 5 effectively and clearly reflects theperformance degradation process of the lithium-ion batterySimilarly the trend towards battery degradation is reflectedin Figures 6 and 7The BID curve increases with the increaseof the number of battery discharge cycles

The assessment method based on SR-GMM-BID is supe-rior to the methods that use only a single feature FirstBID value is sensitive to the performance degradation of thebattery and the trend of lithium-ion battery degradation canbe clearly seen Second the fused indicator does not fluctuateviolently in the early stage and improves the reliability ofassessment

[32] In order to prove the superiority of themethod proposedin this paper the four fusion parameters and battery capacitywere respectively analyzed by Spearman correlation Theinterval of coefficient r is [-1 1] When r is greater than 0it means positive correlation when r is less than 0 it meansnegative correlation The closer the absolute value of r is to 1the more linearly dependent it is

The correlation analysis results are shown in Table 3 Thefour health indicators are negative correlated with batterycapacity The absolute value of correlation coefficient of BIDis significantly higher than DI NLLP and MQE It indicatesthat the BID index has the best correlation with the batterycapacity and can be used for the input of battery remaininglife prediction (RUL) to improve the prognosis accuracy

it is advantageous to accurately reflect the state of batteryperformance and improve the prediction accuracy of residuallife by extracting characteristic parameters from multipleperspectives and fusing them into a health index and thispaper focuses on performance degradation assessment oflithium batteries

To avoid problems such as insufficient maintenance orover-maintenance of lithium-ion batteries it is necessary tocarry out condition-based maintenance for batteries Thequantitative assessment of the degree of performance degra-dation is a prerequisite for condition-based maintenance oflithium-ion batteries It is difficult to measure the residualcapacity of batteries in real time [5] many researcherstry to assess the performance of the battery using theapproach of analyzing variations in the discharge voltageSbarufatti proposed a method that combines particle filtersand radial basis function neural networks to predict thedischarge duration of lithium-ion batteries [6] Xu proposedan effective model based on state space for modeling theperformance degradation of batteries The model adoptsan analysis method based on the sequentially observeddischarging profiles and uses the expectation-maximization(EM) algorithm in conjunction with the extended Kalmanfilter (EKF) algorithm to estimate and update the modelparameters and state [7] Xu also analyzed the distributionof discharge voltage and combined the discharge process andthe degradation process to develop a hierarchical model forcomprehensive prediction of discharge duration in differentcycles and the remaining effective cycles [8] Widodo usedthe sample entropy of the discharge voltage to predict theperformance of the battery [9]

Although some of the methods proposed in the abovestudies can be used tomake effective assessment they still fallshort of the expectation of accurately and comprehensivelyassessing the degradation process of the batteries This isbecause most of these methods only process a single fea-ture of the discharge voltage which is not very sensitiveto variations in the battery state To solve this challengethis paper proposes a method based on the fusion ofmultiple features for assessing the performance degradationof lithium-ion batteries In fact the multi-feature fusionapproach has been widely used in assessing the performanceof bearings but relatively fewer attempts have been madeto adopt this approach for assessing the performance ofbatteries

In researching the performance degradation assessmenteffectively extracting multi-dimensional features and estab-lishing an effective degradation assessment model are twocritical issues A lot of work has been done with regard tothe first critical issue Principal component analysis (PCA)is one of the most widely used data compression algorithmsDong used PCA to reduce the dimensions of the parametersin bearing degradation process and they obtained goodresults [10] Yu proposed a method based on local preservingprojection (LPP) to reduce the dimensions of the multi-dimensional features in the time domain frequency domainand time-frequency domain The method is applied to theperformance degradation assessment of bearings and verifiedthe feasibility of the method through experiments [11] Cai

proposed a spectral regression (SR) method which is anew type of model for supervised unsupervised and semi-supervised regression Using SR to reduce the dimensionsmakes it possible to solve the projection function usingthe regression framework thereby circumventing the thornyissue of decomposing the features of the dense matrix [12]With regard to the second critical issue Yu proposed amethod based on multiple two-layer sparse autoencoderneural networks to fuse the features and used experimentto verify the superiority of this method [13] Yu appliedthe Gaussian mixture model (GMM) model to the healthassessment of bearings and achieved quantitative analysisof performance degradation of the bearings [11] Batistaproposed an algorithm based on improved support vectormachine (SVM) reducing the error rate in diagnosis [14]Ai proposed a fusion method based on n-dimensionalcharacteristic parameters distance [15] Hassani proposed afusion model utilizes zSlices-based representation of generaltype-2 fuzzy logic systems to combine different SVMs [16]Zhang proposed an exergy-based fusion method to fusemultiple transient states with the information of multiplesensors obtained in state monitoring [17] Shao proposeda feature fusion method based on the deep belief network(DBN) taking advantage of the excellent learning ability ofDBN [18] Zhou proposed an NCA-based feature extractionmethod to reduce dimensionality and used a coupled hiddenMarkov model based on multichannel data acquisition forfault diagnosis [19] In addition Wang [20] also summarizedmethods to evaluate the health indicators based on Markovmodel self-organizingmapping wavelet change and fuzzy c-means transformation All of the abovemethods have yieldedgood assessment results

On the basis of the above analysis this paper proposesa performance degradation assessment method based onthe fusion of multiple features First the discharge voltagesignals of lithium-ion batteries under real-time monitoringare analyzed to obtain features in the dimensions of timedomain and complexity Then the multiple features undergoan SR processing to reduce the number of dimensions andeliminate redundancy based on these processes GMM isestablished to model the health status of batteries Thusthe degree of performance degradation of batteries can bequantitatively assessed using the Bayesian inference-baseddistance (BID) metric The experimental results show thatthe assessment method proposed in this paper can be usedto monitor the degradation process of lithium-ion batteriesmore effectively and to improve the accuracy of conditionmonitoring of batteries To the best of our knowledge singlecharacteristic parameters are used in most studies of lithiumbattery status assessment However there is redundancyand difference among parameters so the characterization oflithium battery state is not accurate enough Therefore inthis paper the characteristic parameters are extracted fromthe perspectives of statistical measurement and complexityafter that the extracted features are fused by the GMM-BID model proposed in this paper Compared with a singleparameter the health index can characterize the performancedegradation degree of lithium battery more accurately

2 Feature Extraction

The capacity of battery is a parameter that can accuratelyevaluate the performance but it is difficult to obtain directlywhich can only be obtained in the laboratory or offline stateTherefore it is necessary to select some parameters thatcan be monitored online to estimate the degradation stateof lithium-ion batteries During the charging process thecharging mode of the battery is generally fixed that is thecharging voltage and current are also fixed The dischargecurrent depends on the system payload which can affect thehealth of the battery but cannot reflect the degradation ofthe health state of the battery At present most studies havefound that the discharge voltage of the battery will tend todegrade with an increase in the number of discharge cycles[6ndash11 21] Therefore this paper focuses on analyzing theeasy-to-measure discharge voltage of lithium-ion batteries tomake a more accurate assessment of the battery performancedegradation

21 Time Domain Features The voltage values of all of thedischarge cycles of a lithium-ion batteries can be regarded asa time series of voltage It is necessary to analyze this timeseries to extract the features that reflect the statistical patternof the time series The most common method for analyzinga time series is time domain analysis Charakopoulos AK[22] estimated mainly nonlinear measures such as mutualinformation combinedwith descriptive statisticsmeasures aswell as some linear and nonlinear dynamic detectors such asHurst exponent detrended fluctuation analysis and Hjorthparameters

With the increase of charging and discharging timesof lithium-ion battery its internal resistance and energyloss increase which shows that the discharge duration willbe shorter and shorter after the battery is fully chargedTherefore the article adopted the method of statistical mea-surement such as the mean and RMS values to describe thechanging trend of battery discharge voltage Also regardingthe trend of the battery voltage at the same time intervalincreasing with the number of charge and discharge cyclesfixed-interval voltage difference can be constructed to char-acterize the degree of battery performance degradation

211 Statistical Measurement There are some conventionaltime domain features based on statistical measurement(see Table 1)

212 Fixed-Interval Voltage Difference When a series of dis-charge voltage values are obtained by sampling the dischargevoltage at fixed intervals the voltage discrepancy betweentwo neighboring samples is called the fixed-interval voltagedifference As the battery is used successive times (that isthe number of discharge cycles of a lithium-ion batteryincreases) the battery ages continuously which is reflectedby the increasingly shorter discharge duration During eachdischarge cycle the discharge voltage of a battery decreasesfrom a higher voltage value to a lower value

Each fixed time interval is denoted as 119905 and the fixed-interval voltage difference in the 119894-th discharge cycle is

22 Complexity Entropy is a way to describe the complexityof a time series or the degree of internal chaos Originallya concept in physics the concept of entropy graduallyexpanded with the development of information theory andhas become an indicator of system instability Entropy is nowwidely used in system state monitoring and signal analysisAt present the various forms of entropy (such as informationentropy sample entropy and approximate entropy) are usedas the characteristic parameters for measuring complexity

Derived from the approximate entropy the sampleentropy provides a better entropy representation in sig-nal analysis Compared with other metrics such as relateddimensions sample entropy is better suited for classifyingcomplex systems including characterization of the certaintyand randomness of the time series of finite data points [9]Sample entropy has been applied in bearing fault diagnosis[23ndash25] Therefore in this paper we chose sample entropyas a useful complement to the characteristic parameters Thealgorithm works in the following way(1) Assume that there is an 119873-dimensional time series119906(1) 119906(2) 119906(119873) obtained via sampling at fixed timeintervals(2) Define the associated parameters 119898 119903 of the sampleentropy where the real number 119898 is the length of thecomparative vector and the real number 119903 is the metric ofsimilarity(3) Reconstruct the 119898-dimensional vector 119883(1) 119883(2) 119883(119873minus119898+1)where119883(119894) = [119906(119894) 119906(119894+1) 119906(119894+119898minus1)]

4 Lithium-Ion Battery PerformanceDegradation Assessment Experiment andResults Analysis

41 Data Source A case calculation experiment was carriedout to verify the reliability and effectiveness of the proposedmethod in assessing the performance degradation of lithium-ion batteries In the experiment the experimental data setswere provided by NASA [28] A set of four Li-ion batteries( 5 6 7 and 18) were run through 3 different operationalprofiles (charge discharge and impedance) at room tem-perature Charging was carried out in a constant current(CC) mode at 15A until the battery voltage reached 42Vand then continued in a constant voltage (CV) mode untilthe charge current dropped to 20mA Discharge was carriedout at a constant current (CC) level of 2A until the batteryvoltage fell to 27V 25V 22V and 25V for batteries 5 6 7and 18 respectively Impedancemeasurement was carried outthrough an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS)frequency sweep from 01Hz to 5kHz Repeated charge anddischarge cycles result in accelerated aging of the batterieswhile impedance measurements provide insight into theinternal battery parameters that change as aging progressesThe experiments were stopped when the batteries reachedend-of-life (EOL) criteria which was a 30 fade in ratedcapacity (from 2Ahr to 14Ahr)

In order to save space the batteries No 5 No6 and No18 of the four batteries are randomly selected for analysisFigure 2 depicts the relationship between the dischargevoltage and the discharge time of the three batteries As seenin the figure the different discharge cycles share a commonpattern In the early stage of discharge the discharge voltagedeclines gradually and the discharge time has a gentle slopeThe slope of the decline increases gradually over time Inthe last stage of discharge the voltage drops rapidly Asthe number of discharge cycles increases the slope of thedecline of the discharge voltage becomes increasingly steepThe variation of the discharge voltage in each discharge cyclediffers from the voltage variation in any other discharge cyclehence it is necessary to assess and manage the battery

difference and sample entropy tend to rise with fluctuationsTherefore the extracted features could be used to characterizethe performance of Lithium-ion batteries however thesefeatures have some drawbacks Standard deviation skewnessand kurtosis fluctuate violently and are not sensitive to thedegradation of performance making it difficult to determinethe degree of degradation It is observed that the standarddeviation skewness kurtosis and sample entropy of batterynumbers 5 and 6 have a ldquorun-inrdquo period in the earlystage during which the values fluctuate violently without asignificant trend When the battery is diagnosed during thisldquorun-inrdquo period it is hard to see a trend towards degradation

To enable more accurate online monitoring of the batterydegradation this paper proposes a quantitative indicatorobtained by fusing multiple multi-dimensional features toeffectively describe battery degradation

As soon as the battery is used it begins to degrade Inorder to reduce the error of the health state model the first4 of all cycles were selected for training On the basis ofthe above analysis the first 4 sets of health state data ofbattery numbers 5 6 and 18 are chosen to establish theGMM model A GMM with 2 Gaussian components is usedto model the normal state data and the first two dimensionsafter dimension reduction by SR are used as the input dataAfter the GMM model is trained with the normal state

data all of the test data is input into the model in groupsand one BID value is calculated using each data group asshown in Figures 5 6 and 7 Figure 5 shows that the BIDvalue of battery number 5 effectively and clearly reflects theperformance degradation process of the lithium-ion batterySimilarly the trend towards battery degradation is reflectedin Figures 6 and 7The BID curve increases with the increaseof the number of battery discharge cycles

The assessment method based on SR-GMM-BID is supe-rior to the methods that use only a single feature FirstBID value is sensitive to the performance degradation of thebattery and the trend of lithium-ion battery degradation canbe clearly seen Second the fused indicator does not fluctuateviolently in the early stage and improves the reliability ofassessment

[32] In order to prove the superiority of themethod proposedin this paper the four fusion parameters and battery capacitywere respectively analyzed by Spearman correlation Theinterval of coefficient r is [-1 1] When r is greater than 0it means positive correlation when r is less than 0 it meansnegative correlation The closer the absolute value of r is to 1the more linearly dependent it is

The correlation analysis results are shown in Table 3 Thefour health indicators are negative correlated with batterycapacity The absolute value of correlation coefficient of BIDis significantly higher than DI NLLP and MQE It indicatesthat the BID index has the best correlation with the batterycapacity and can be used for the input of battery remaininglife prediction (RUL) to improve the prognosis accuracy

2 Feature Extraction

The capacity of battery is a parameter that can accuratelyevaluate the performance but it is difficult to obtain directlywhich can only be obtained in the laboratory or offline stateTherefore it is necessary to select some parameters thatcan be monitored online to estimate the degradation stateof lithium-ion batteries During the charging process thecharging mode of the battery is generally fixed that is thecharging voltage and current are also fixed The dischargecurrent depends on the system payload which can affect thehealth of the battery but cannot reflect the degradation ofthe health state of the battery At present most studies havefound that the discharge voltage of the battery will tend todegrade with an increase in the number of discharge cycles[6ndash11 21] Therefore this paper focuses on analyzing theeasy-to-measure discharge voltage of lithium-ion batteries tomake a more accurate assessment of the battery performancedegradation

21 Time Domain Features The voltage values of all of thedischarge cycles of a lithium-ion batteries can be regarded asa time series of voltage It is necessary to analyze this timeseries to extract the features that reflect the statistical patternof the time series The most common method for analyzinga time series is time domain analysis Charakopoulos AK[22] estimated mainly nonlinear measures such as mutualinformation combinedwith descriptive statisticsmeasures aswell as some linear and nonlinear dynamic detectors such asHurst exponent detrended fluctuation analysis and Hjorthparameters

With the increase of charging and discharging timesof lithium-ion battery its internal resistance and energyloss increase which shows that the discharge duration willbe shorter and shorter after the battery is fully chargedTherefore the article adopted the method of statistical mea-surement such as the mean and RMS values to describe thechanging trend of battery discharge voltage Also regardingthe trend of the battery voltage at the same time intervalincreasing with the number of charge and discharge cyclesfixed-interval voltage difference can be constructed to char-acterize the degree of battery performance degradation

211 Statistical Measurement There are some conventionaltime domain features based on statistical measurement(see Table 1)

212 Fixed-Interval Voltage Difference When a series of dis-charge voltage values are obtained by sampling the dischargevoltage at fixed intervals the voltage discrepancy betweentwo neighboring samples is called the fixed-interval voltagedifference As the battery is used successive times (that isthe number of discharge cycles of a lithium-ion batteryincreases) the battery ages continuously which is reflectedby the increasingly shorter discharge duration During eachdischarge cycle the discharge voltage of a battery decreasesfrom a higher voltage value to a lower value

Each fixed time interval is denoted as 119905 and the fixed-interval voltage difference in the 119894-th discharge cycle is

22 Complexity Entropy is a way to describe the complexityof a time series or the degree of internal chaos Originallya concept in physics the concept of entropy graduallyexpanded with the development of information theory andhas become an indicator of system instability Entropy is nowwidely used in system state monitoring and signal analysisAt present the various forms of entropy (such as informationentropy sample entropy and approximate entropy) are usedas the characteristic parameters for measuring complexity

Derived from the approximate entropy the sampleentropy provides a better entropy representation in sig-nal analysis Compared with other metrics such as relateddimensions sample entropy is better suited for classifyingcomplex systems including characterization of the certaintyand randomness of the time series of finite data points [9]Sample entropy has been applied in bearing fault diagnosis[23ndash25] Therefore in this paper we chose sample entropyas a useful complement to the characteristic parameters Thealgorithm works in the following way(1) Assume that there is an 119873-dimensional time series119906(1) 119906(2) 119906(119873) obtained via sampling at fixed timeintervals(2) Define the associated parameters 119898 119903 of the sampleentropy where the real number 119898 is the length of thecomparative vector and the real number 119903 is the metric ofsimilarity(3) Reconstruct the 119898-dimensional vector 119883(1) 119883(2) 119883(119873minus119898+1)where119883(119894) = [119906(119894) 119906(119894+1) 119906(119894+119898minus1)]

3 Performance Degradation AssessmentModel Based on Fusion of Multiple Features

Data fusion can be defined as a combination of multiplesources to obtain improved information in this contextimproved information means less expensive higher qualityor more relevant informationThe available data fusion tech-niques can be classified into three nonexclusive categories (i)data association (ii) state estimation and (iii) decision fusion[26]The data fusionmethod described in this paper is a stateestimation fusion method

31 GMM GMM is a clustering algorithm that uses a Gaus-sian distribution as the parameter model and is trained usingthe EM algorithm As a simple extension of the Gaussianmodel GMM uses a combination of multiple Gaussiandistributions to characterize the distribution of data whichis expressed as

119901 (119909) = 119872sum119898=1

120587119898119901 (119909 | 120579119898) (11)

120587119898119901 (119909 | 120579119898) (12)

After the GMMmodel was established using the data setsfor the normal operation state a quantitative indicator basedon BID [27] was used to perform quantitative assessment ofthe degradation degree of lithium-ion batteries

Suppose that there are119870Gaussian classes The 119896-th com-ponent can be denoted as 119862119896 and its occurrence probabilitycan be denoted as 120572119896 The probability of the test point 119909119905 thenbelongs to the 119896 component 119862119896 (denoted as 119901(119862119896 | 119909119905)) andcan be calculated using the following formula

32 Performance Degradation Assessment Model Based onFusion of Multiple Features On the basis of the aboveanalysis this paper proposes a method based on the fusion ofmultiple features for assessing the performance of lithium-ionbatteries The flowchart of the method is shown in Figure 1

Figure 1 shows that the performance degradation assess-ment process is divided into an offline phase and onlinephase The specific steps of each phase are as follows

(1) Off-Line Phase (A) Extract initial features from thetraining data anduse the SRmethod to reduce the dimensionsof the original features

(B) Select the health state training data to establish aGMMmodel and obtain the parameters of the model

(C) Calculate the BID value of the test data using theGMM parameters to describe the performance degradationprocess of lithium-ion batteries

(2) Online Phase (A) Extract initial features from the trainingdata and use the SR method to reduce the dimensions of theoriginal features

(B) Calculate the BID value between the test data and thehealth state GMM

4 Lithium-Ion Battery PerformanceDegradation Assessment Experiment andResults Analysis

41 Data Source A case calculation experiment was carriedout to verify the reliability and effectiveness of the proposedmethod in assessing the performance degradation of lithium-ion batteries In the experiment the experimental data setswere provided by NASA [28] A set of four Li-ion batteries( 5 6 7 and 18) were run through 3 different operationalprofiles (charge discharge and impedance) at room tem-perature Charging was carried out in a constant current(CC) mode at 15A until the battery voltage reached 42Vand then continued in a constant voltage (CV) mode untilthe charge current dropped to 20mA Discharge was carriedout at a constant current (CC) level of 2A until the batteryvoltage fell to 27V 25V 22V and 25V for batteries 5 6 7and 18 respectively Impedancemeasurement was carried outthrough an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS)frequency sweep from 01Hz to 5kHz Repeated charge anddischarge cycles result in accelerated aging of the batterieswhile impedance measurements provide insight into theinternal battery parameters that change as aging progressesThe experiments were stopped when the batteries reachedend-of-life (EOL) criteria which was a 30 fade in ratedcapacity (from 2Ahr to 14Ahr)

In order to save space the batteries No 5 No6 and No18 of the four batteries are randomly selected for analysisFigure 2 depicts the relationship between the dischargevoltage and the discharge time of the three batteries As seenin the figure the different discharge cycles share a commonpattern In the early stage of discharge the discharge voltagedeclines gradually and the discharge time has a gentle slopeThe slope of the decline increases gradually over time Inthe last stage of discharge the voltage drops rapidly Asthe number of discharge cycles increases the slope of thedecline of the discharge voltage becomes increasingly steepThe variation of the discharge voltage in each discharge cyclediffers from the voltage variation in any other discharge cyclehence it is necessary to assess and manage the battery

42 Comparison of Clustering Ability Concerning DegradationDegree In the experiment 132 original data sets of batterynumber 18 are extracted After a normalization process 25sets of normal state data 25 sets of slight degradation dataand 25 sets of severe degradation data are used to verify

difference and sample entropy tend to rise with fluctuationsTherefore the extracted features could be used to characterizethe performance of Lithium-ion batteries however thesefeatures have some drawbacks Standard deviation skewnessand kurtosis fluctuate violently and are not sensitive to thedegradation of performance making it difficult to determinethe degree of degradation It is observed that the standarddeviation skewness kurtosis and sample entropy of batterynumbers 5 and 6 have a ldquorun-inrdquo period in the earlystage during which the values fluctuate violently without asignificant trend When the battery is diagnosed during thisldquorun-inrdquo period it is hard to see a trend towards degradation

To enable more accurate online monitoring of the batterydegradation this paper proposes a quantitative indicatorobtained by fusing multiple multi-dimensional features toeffectively describe battery degradation

As soon as the battery is used it begins to degrade Inorder to reduce the error of the health state model the first4 of all cycles were selected for training On the basis ofthe above analysis the first 4 sets of health state data ofbattery numbers 5 6 and 18 are chosen to establish theGMM model A GMM with 2 Gaussian components is usedto model the normal state data and the first two dimensionsafter dimension reduction by SR are used as the input dataAfter the GMM model is trained with the normal state

data all of the test data is input into the model in groupsand one BID value is calculated using each data group asshown in Figures 5 6 and 7 Figure 5 shows that the BIDvalue of battery number 5 effectively and clearly reflects theperformance degradation process of the lithium-ion batterySimilarly the trend towards battery degradation is reflectedin Figures 6 and 7The BID curve increases with the increaseof the number of battery discharge cycles

The assessment method based on SR-GMM-BID is supe-rior to the methods that use only a single feature FirstBID value is sensitive to the performance degradation of thebattery and the trend of lithium-ion battery degradation canbe clearly seen Second the fused indicator does not fluctuateviolently in the early stage and improves the reliability ofassessment

[32] In order to prove the superiority of themethod proposedin this paper the four fusion parameters and battery capacitywere respectively analyzed by Spearman correlation Theinterval of coefficient r is [-1 1] When r is greater than 0it means positive correlation when r is less than 0 it meansnegative correlation The closer the absolute value of r is to 1the more linearly dependent it is

The correlation analysis results are shown in Table 3 Thefour health indicators are negative correlated with batterycapacity The absolute value of correlation coefficient of BIDis significantly higher than DI NLLP and MQE It indicatesthat the BID index has the best correlation with the batterycapacity and can be used for the input of battery remaininglife prediction (RUL) to improve the prognosis accuracy

3 Performance Degradation AssessmentModel Based on Fusion of Multiple Features

Data fusion can be defined as a combination of multiplesources to obtain improved information in this contextimproved information means less expensive higher qualityor more relevant informationThe available data fusion tech-niques can be classified into three nonexclusive categories (i)data association (ii) state estimation and (iii) decision fusion[26]The data fusionmethod described in this paper is a stateestimation fusion method

31 GMM GMM is a clustering algorithm that uses a Gaus-sian distribution as the parameter model and is trained usingthe EM algorithm As a simple extension of the Gaussianmodel GMM uses a combination of multiple Gaussiandistributions to characterize the distribution of data whichis expressed as

119901 (119909) = 119872sum119898=1

120587119898119901 (119909 | 120579119898) (11)

where 119872 is the number of model mixing 120587119898 is a weightcoefficient of the model (sum120587119898 = 1) 119901(119909 | 120579119898) isthe Gaussian distribution function (the 119898-th average valueis 120583119898 and the covariance matrix is 119878119898) denoted as 120601 =1205871 120587119898 1205831 120583119898 1198781 119878119898 The model can be rewrit-ten in the following form

120587119898119901 (119909 | 120579119898) (12)

After the GMMmodel was established using the data setsfor the normal operation state a quantitative indicator basedon BID [27] was used to perform quantitative assessment ofthe degradation degree of lithium-ion batteries

Suppose that there are119870Gaussian classes The 119896-th com-ponent can be denoted as 119862119896 and its occurrence probabilitycan be denoted as 120572119896 The probability of the test point 119909119905 thenbelongs to the 119896 component 119862119896 (denoted as 119901(119862119896 | 119909119905)) andcan be calculated using the following formula

32 Performance Degradation Assessment Model Based onFusion of Multiple Features On the basis of the aboveanalysis this paper proposes a method based on the fusion ofmultiple features for assessing the performance of lithium-ionbatteries The flowchart of the method is shown in Figure 1

Figure 1 shows that the performance degradation assess-ment process is divided into an offline phase and onlinephase The specific steps of each phase are as follows

(1) Off-Line Phase (A) Extract initial features from thetraining data anduse the SRmethod to reduce the dimensionsof the original features

(B) Select the health state training data to establish aGMMmodel and obtain the parameters of the model

(C) Calculate the BID value of the test data using theGMM parameters to describe the performance degradationprocess of lithium-ion batteries

(2) Online Phase (A) Extract initial features from the trainingdata and use the SR method to reduce the dimensions of theoriginal features

(B) Calculate the BID value between the test data and thehealth state GMM

4 Lithium-Ion Battery PerformanceDegradation Assessment Experiment andResults Analysis

41 Data Source A case calculation experiment was carriedout to verify the reliability and effectiveness of the proposedmethod in assessing the performance degradation of lithium-ion batteries In the experiment the experimental data setswere provided by NASA [28] A set of four Li-ion batteries( 5 6 7 and 18) were run through 3 different operationalprofiles (charge discharge and impedance) at room tem-perature Charging was carried out in a constant current(CC) mode at 15A until the battery voltage reached 42Vand then continued in a constant voltage (CV) mode untilthe charge current dropped to 20mA Discharge was carriedout at a constant current (CC) level of 2A until the batteryvoltage fell to 27V 25V 22V and 25V for batteries 5 6 7and 18 respectively Impedancemeasurement was carried outthrough an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS)frequency sweep from 01Hz to 5kHz Repeated charge anddischarge cycles result in accelerated aging of the batterieswhile impedance measurements provide insight into theinternal battery parameters that change as aging progressesThe experiments were stopped when the batteries reachedend-of-life (EOL) criteria which was a 30 fade in ratedcapacity (from 2Ahr to 14Ahr)

In order to save space the batteries No 5 No6 and No18 of the four batteries are randomly selected for analysisFigure 2 depicts the relationship between the dischargevoltage and the discharge time of the three batteries As seenin the figure the different discharge cycles share a commonpattern In the early stage of discharge the discharge voltagedeclines gradually and the discharge time has a gentle slopeThe slope of the decline increases gradually over time Inthe last stage of discharge the voltage drops rapidly Asthe number of discharge cycles increases the slope of thedecline of the discharge voltage becomes increasingly steepThe variation of the discharge voltage in each discharge cyclediffers from the voltage variation in any other discharge cyclehence it is necessary to assess and manage the battery

42 Comparison of Clustering Ability Concerning DegradationDegree In the experiment 132 original data sets of batterynumber 18 are extracted After a normalization process 25sets of normal state data 25 sets of slight degradation dataand 25 sets of severe degradation data are used to verify

difference and sample entropy tend to rise with fluctuationsTherefore the extracted features could be used to characterizethe performance of Lithium-ion batteries however thesefeatures have some drawbacks Standard deviation skewnessand kurtosis fluctuate violently and are not sensitive to thedegradation of performance making it difficult to determinethe degree of degradation It is observed that the standarddeviation skewness kurtosis and sample entropy of batterynumbers 5 and 6 have a ldquorun-inrdquo period in the earlystage during which the values fluctuate violently without asignificant trend When the battery is diagnosed during thisldquorun-inrdquo period it is hard to see a trend towards degradation

To enable more accurate online monitoring of the batterydegradation this paper proposes a quantitative indicatorobtained by fusing multiple multi-dimensional features toeffectively describe battery degradation

As soon as the battery is used it begins to degrade Inorder to reduce the error of the health state model the first4 of all cycles were selected for training On the basis ofthe above analysis the first 4 sets of health state data ofbattery numbers 5 6 and 18 are chosen to establish theGMM model A GMM with 2 Gaussian components is usedto model the normal state data and the first two dimensionsafter dimension reduction by SR are used as the input dataAfter the GMM model is trained with the normal state

data all of the test data is input into the model in groupsand one BID value is calculated using each data group asshown in Figures 5 6 and 7 Figure 5 shows that the BIDvalue of battery number 5 effectively and clearly reflects theperformance degradation process of the lithium-ion batterySimilarly the trend towards battery degradation is reflectedin Figures 6 and 7The BID curve increases with the increaseof the number of battery discharge cycles

The assessment method based on SR-GMM-BID is supe-rior to the methods that use only a single feature FirstBID value is sensitive to the performance degradation of thebattery and the trend of lithium-ion battery degradation canbe clearly seen Second the fused indicator does not fluctuateviolently in the early stage and improves the reliability ofassessment

[32] In order to prove the superiority of themethod proposedin this paper the four fusion parameters and battery capacitywere respectively analyzed by Spearman correlation Theinterval of coefficient r is [-1 1] When r is greater than 0it means positive correlation when r is less than 0 it meansnegative correlation The closer the absolute value of r is to 1the more linearly dependent it is

The correlation analysis results are shown in Table 3 Thefour health indicators are negative correlated with batterycapacity The absolute value of correlation coefficient of BIDis significantly higher than DI NLLP and MQE It indicatesthat the BID index has the best correlation with the batterycapacity and can be used for the input of battery remaininglife prediction (RUL) to improve the prognosis accuracy

32 Performance Degradation Assessment Model Based onFusion of Multiple Features On the basis of the aboveanalysis this paper proposes a method based on the fusion ofmultiple features for assessing the performance of lithium-ionbatteries The flowchart of the method is shown in Figure 1

Figure 1 shows that the performance degradation assess-ment process is divided into an offline phase and onlinephase The specific steps of each phase are as follows

(1) Off-Line Phase (A) Extract initial features from thetraining data anduse the SRmethod to reduce the dimensionsof the original features

(B) Select the health state training data to establish aGMMmodel and obtain the parameters of the model

(C) Calculate the BID value of the test data using theGMM parameters to describe the performance degradationprocess of lithium-ion batteries

(2) Online Phase (A) Extract initial features from the trainingdata and use the SR method to reduce the dimensions of theoriginal features

(B) Calculate the BID value between the test data and thehealth state GMM

4 Lithium-Ion Battery PerformanceDegradation Assessment Experiment andResults Analysis

41 Data Source A case calculation experiment was carriedout to verify the reliability and effectiveness of the proposedmethod in assessing the performance degradation of lithium-ion batteries In the experiment the experimental data setswere provided by NASA [28] A set of four Li-ion batteries( 5 6 7 and 18) were run through 3 different operationalprofiles (charge discharge and impedance) at room tem-perature Charging was carried out in a constant current(CC) mode at 15A until the battery voltage reached 42Vand then continued in a constant voltage (CV) mode untilthe charge current dropped to 20mA Discharge was carriedout at a constant current (CC) level of 2A until the batteryvoltage fell to 27V 25V 22V and 25V for batteries 5 6 7and 18 respectively Impedancemeasurement was carried outthrough an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS)frequency sweep from 01Hz to 5kHz Repeated charge anddischarge cycles result in accelerated aging of the batterieswhile impedance measurements provide insight into theinternal battery parameters that change as aging progressesThe experiments were stopped when the batteries reachedend-of-life (EOL) criteria which was a 30 fade in ratedcapacity (from 2Ahr to 14Ahr)

In order to save space the batteries No 5 No6 and No18 of the four batteries are randomly selected for analysisFigure 2 depicts the relationship between the dischargevoltage and the discharge time of the three batteries As seenin the figure the different discharge cycles share a commonpattern In the early stage of discharge the discharge voltagedeclines gradually and the discharge time has a gentle slopeThe slope of the decline increases gradually over time Inthe last stage of discharge the voltage drops rapidly Asthe number of discharge cycles increases the slope of thedecline of the discharge voltage becomes increasingly steepThe variation of the discharge voltage in each discharge cyclediffers from the voltage variation in any other discharge cyclehence it is necessary to assess and manage the battery

the clustering ability and correctness of the SR dimensionreduction method proposed in this paper Furthermore theSR algorithm is compared with the LPP and PCA algo-rithms Figure 3 depicts the effects of the three algorithmsin dimension reduction (only the first two dimensions areshown for each algorithm) To compare the three featureextraction methods more directly the clustering algorithmK-means is used as the degradation degree classifier tocalculate the cluster recognition rates of the three methodsThe results are shown in Table 2 Figure 3 shows that afterthe dimension reduction the PCA method failed to clusterthe three states (ie the three states overlap with each other)which means that PCA has the worst clustering effect amongthe three algorithms The LPP and SR algorithms have betterclustering effects as indicated by their ability to clearlydistinguish the three states Between these two algorithmsSR is superior to LPP Table 2 also shows that PCA has thelowest cluster recognition rate among the three algorithmsThe cluster recognition rate of SR is 9733 which is 4higher than that of the LPP algorithm In summary theSR dimension reduction algorithm has stronger clusteringability and recognition rateTherefore the SRmethod ismoresuitable for on-line monitoring

difference and sample entropy tend to rise with fluctuationsTherefore the extracted features could be used to characterizethe performance of Lithium-ion batteries however thesefeatures have some drawbacks Standard deviation skewnessand kurtosis fluctuate violently and are not sensitive to thedegradation of performance making it difficult to determinethe degree of degradation It is observed that the standarddeviation skewness kurtosis and sample entropy of batterynumbers 5 and 6 have a ldquorun-inrdquo period in the earlystage during which the values fluctuate violently without asignificant trend When the battery is diagnosed during thisldquorun-inrdquo period it is hard to see a trend towards degradation

To enable more accurate online monitoring of the batterydegradation this paper proposes a quantitative indicatorobtained by fusing multiple multi-dimensional features toeffectively describe battery degradation

As soon as the battery is used it begins to degrade Inorder to reduce the error of the health state model the first4 of all cycles were selected for training On the basis ofthe above analysis the first 4 sets of health state data ofbattery numbers 5 6 and 18 are chosen to establish theGMM model A GMM with 2 Gaussian components is usedto model the normal state data and the first two dimensionsafter dimension reduction by SR are used as the input dataAfter the GMM model is trained with the normal state

data all of the test data is input into the model in groupsand one BID value is calculated using each data group asshown in Figures 5 6 and 7 Figure 5 shows that the BIDvalue of battery number 5 effectively and clearly reflects theperformance degradation process of the lithium-ion batterySimilarly the trend towards battery degradation is reflectedin Figures 6 and 7The BID curve increases with the increaseof the number of battery discharge cycles

The assessment method based on SR-GMM-BID is supe-rior to the methods that use only a single feature FirstBID value is sensitive to the performance degradation of thebattery and the trend of lithium-ion battery degradation canbe clearly seen Second the fused indicator does not fluctuateviolently in the early stage and improves the reliability ofassessment

[32] In order to prove the superiority of themethod proposedin this paper the four fusion parameters and battery capacitywere respectively analyzed by Spearman correlation Theinterval of coefficient r is [-1 1] When r is greater than 0it means positive correlation when r is less than 0 it meansnegative correlation The closer the absolute value of r is to 1the more linearly dependent it is

The correlation analysis results are shown in Table 3 Thefour health indicators are negative correlated with batterycapacity The absolute value of correlation coefficient of BIDis significantly higher than DI NLLP and MQE It indicatesthat the BID index has the best correlation with the batterycapacity and can be used for the input of battery remaininglife prediction (RUL) to improve the prognosis accuracy

To enable more accurate online monitoring of the batterydegradation this paper proposes a quantitative indicatorobtained by fusing multiple multi-dimensional features toeffectively describe battery degradation

As soon as the battery is used it begins to degrade Inorder to reduce the error of the health state model the first4 of all cycles were selected for training On the basis ofthe above analysis the first 4 sets of health state data ofbattery numbers 5 6 and 18 are chosen to establish theGMM model A GMM with 2 Gaussian components is usedto model the normal state data and the first two dimensionsafter dimension reduction by SR are used as the input dataAfter the GMM model is trained with the normal state

[32] In order to prove the superiority of themethod proposedin this paper the four fusion parameters and battery capacitywere respectively analyzed by Spearman correlation Theinterval of coefficient r is [-1 1] When r is greater than 0it means positive correlation when r is less than 0 it meansnegative correlation The closer the absolute value of r is to 1the more linearly dependent it is

The correlation analysis results are shown in Table 3 Thefour health indicators are negative correlated with batterycapacity The absolute value of correlation coefficient of BIDis significantly higher than DI NLLP and MQE It indicatesthat the BID index has the best correlation with the batterycapacity and can be used for the input of battery remaininglife prediction (RUL) to improve the prognosis accuracy

[32] In order to prove the superiority of themethod proposedin this paper the four fusion parameters and battery capacitywere respectively analyzed by Spearman correlation Theinterval of coefficient r is [-1 1] When r is greater than 0it means positive correlation when r is less than 0 it meansnegative correlation The closer the absolute value of r is to 1the more linearly dependent it is

The correlation analysis results are shown in Table 3 Thefour health indicators are negative correlated with batterycapacity The absolute value of correlation coefficient of BIDis significantly higher than DI NLLP and MQE It indicatesthat the BID index has the best correlation with the batterycapacity and can be used for the input of battery remaininglife prediction (RUL) to improve the prognosis accuracy

[32] In order to prove the superiority of themethod proposedin this paper the four fusion parameters and battery capacitywere respectively analyzed by Spearman correlation Theinterval of coefficient r is [-1 1] When r is greater than 0it means positive correlation when r is less than 0 it meansnegative correlation The closer the absolute value of r is to 1the more linearly dependent it is

The correlation analysis results are shown in Table 3 Thefour health indicators are negative correlated with batterycapacity The absolute value of correlation coefficient of BIDis significantly higher than DI NLLP and MQE It indicatesthat the BID index has the best correlation with the batterycapacity and can be used for the input of battery remaininglife prediction (RUL) to improve the prognosis accuracy

5 Conclusions

This paper proposes a model based on fusion of multiplefeatures for assessing performance degradation of lithium-ion batteries The study yielded the following findings
