Abstract: This study proposes the novel method of lithium-ion battery state of health (SoH) estimation and remaining useful life (RUL) prediction to ensure the safety and reliability of the energy storage system. A fuzzy brain emotional learning neural network (FBELNN) is employed to estimate SoH and a recurrent cerebellar model neural network (RCMNN) is used for the RUL prediction. The inputs of FBELNN are extracted features from the monitoring curve of the constant voltage and current, because the lithium-ion battery is seldom completely discharged and the discharging situation in actual operating process is complex. The FBELNN learns the battery aging features that are extracted and selected by discrete wavelet transform and principal component analysis, respectively. The SoH estimation results from the FBELNN are accurate due to the special structure and parameters adaptive laws. The RCMNN and online training again can improve the performance of RUL prediction, because recurrent units can capture the dynamic features. Experimental data are performed by using NASA Prognostics Center of Excellence battery datasets to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. The results show that the root mean square error of SoH estimation is smaller by the FBELNN and the prediction accuracy of RUL is higher by RCMNN under the different starting points.
