Bias-Compensated State of Charge and State of Health Joint Estimation for Lithium Iron Phosphate Batteries

Accurate estimation of the state of charge (SOC) and state of health (SOH) is crucial for the safe and reliable operation of batteries. Voltage measurement bias highly affects state estimation accuracy, especially in Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries, which are susceptible due to their flat open-circuit voltage (OCV) curves. This work introduces a bias-compensated algorithm to reliably estimate the SOC and SOH of LFP batteries under the influence of voltage measurement bias. Specifically, SOC and SOH are estimated using the Dual Extended Kalman Filter (DEKF) in the high-slope SOC range, where voltage measurement bias effects are weak. Besides, the voltage measurement biases estimated in the low-slope SOC regions are compensated in the following joint estimation of SOC and SOH to enhance the state estimation accuracy further. Experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm significantly outperforms the traditional method, which does not consider biases under different temperatures and aging conditions. Additionally, the bias-compensated algorithm can achieve low estimation errors of below 1.5% for SOC and 2% for SOH, even with a 30mV voltage measurement bias. Finally, even if the voltage measurement biases change in operation, the proposed algorithm can remain robust and keep the estimated errors of states around 2%.

NeighViz: Towards Better Understanding of Neighborhood Effects on Social Groups with Spatial Data

Understanding how local environments influence individual behaviors, such as voting patterns or suicidal tendencies, is crucial in social science to reveal and reduce spatial disparities and promote social well-being. With the increasing availability of large-scale individual-level census data, new analytical opportunities arise for social scientists to explore human behaviors (e.g., political engagement) among social groups at a fine-grained level. However, traditional statistical methods mostly focus on global, aggregated spatial correlations, which are limited to understanding and comparing the impact of local environments (e.g., neighborhoods) on human behaviors among social groups. In this study, we introduce a new analytical framework for analyzing multi-variate neighborhood effects between social groups. We then propose NeighVi, an interactive visual analytics system that helps social scientists explore, understand, and verify the influence of neighborhood effects on human behaviors. Finally, we use a case study to illustrate the effectiveness and usability of our system.

Time-Frequency Analysis based Deep Interference Classification for Frequency Hopping System

It is known that, interference classification plays an important role in protecting the authorized communication system and avoiding its performance degradation in the hostile environment. In this paper, the interference classification problem for the frequency hopping communication system is discussed. Considering the possibility of presence multiple interferences in the frequency hopping system, in order to fully extract effective features of the interferences from the received signals, the linear and bilinear transform based composite time-frequency analysis method is adopted. Then the time-frequency spectrograms obtained from the time-frequency analysis are constructed as matching pairs and input to the deep neural network for classification. In particular, the Siamese neural network is used as the classifier, where the paired spectrograms are input into the two sub-networks of the deep networks, and these two sub-networks extract the features of the paired spectrograms for interference type classification. The simulation results confirm that the proposed algorithm can obtain higher classification accuracy than both traditional single time-frequency representation based approach and the AlexNet transfer learning or convolutional neural network based methods.

Time-Frequency Analysis based Blind Modulation Classification for Multiple-Antenna Systems

Blind modulation classification is an important step to implement cognitive radio networks. The multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technique is widely used in military and civil communication systems. Due to the lack of prior information about channel parameters and the overlapping of signals in the MIMO systems, the traditional likelihood-based and feature-based approaches cannot be applied in these scenarios directly. Hence, in this paper, to resolve the problem of blind modulation classification in MIMO systems, the time-frequency analysis method based on the windowed short-time Fourier transform is used to analyse the time-frequency characteristics of time-domain modulated signals. Then the extracted time-frequency characteristics are converted into RGB spectrogram images, and the convolutional neural network based on transfer learning is applied to classify the modulation types according to the RGB spectrogram images. Finally, a decision fusion module is used to fuse the classification results of all the receive antennas. Through simulations, we analyse the classification performance at different signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs), the results indicate that, for the single-input single-output (SISO) network, our proposed scheme can achieve 92.37% and 99.12% average classification accuracy at SNRs of -4 dB and 10 dB, respectively. For the MIMO network, our scheme achieves 80.42% and 87.92% average classification accuracy at -4 dB and 10 dB, respectively. This outperforms the existing classification methods based on baseband signals.

Monthly electricity consumption forecasting by the fruit fly optimization algorithm enhanced Holt-Winters smoothing method

The electricity consumption forecasting is a critical component of the intelligent power system. And accurate monthly electricity consumption forecasting, as one of the the medium and long term electricity consumption forecasting problems, plays an important role in dispatching and management for electric power systems. Although there are many studies for this problem, large sample data set is generally required to obtain higher prediction accuracy, and the prediction performance become worse when only a little data is available. However, in practical, mostly we experience the problem of insufficient sample data and how to accurately forecast the monthly electricity consumption with limited sample data is a challenge task. The Holt-Winters exponential smoothing method often used to forecast periodic series due to low demand for training data and high accuracy for forecasting. In this paper, based on Holt-Winters exponential smoothing method, we propose a hybrid forecasting model named FOA-MHW. The main idea is that, we use fruit fly optimization algorithm to select smoothing parameters for Holt-Winters exponential smoothing method. Besides, electricity consumption data of a city in China is used to comprehensively evaluate the forecasting performance of the proposed model. The results indicate that our model can significantly improve the accuracy of monthly electricity consumption forecasting even in the case that only a small number of training data is available.

The Sequential Algorithm for Combined State of Charge and State of Health Estimation of Lithium Ion Battery based on Active Current Injection

When State of Charge, State of Health, and parameters of the Lithium-ion battery are estimated simultaneously, the estimation accuracy is hard to be ensured due to uncertainties in the estimation process. To improve the estimation performance a sequential algorithm, which uses frequency scale separation and estimates parameters/states sequentially by injecting currents with different frequencies, is proposed in this paper. Specifically, by incorporating a high-pass filter, the parameters can be independently characterized by injecting high-frequency and medium-frequency currents, respectively. Using the estimated parameters, battery capacity and State of Charge can then be estimated concurrently. Experimental results show that the estimation accuracy of the proposed sequential algorithm is much better than the concurrent algorithm where all parameters/states are estimated simultaneously, and the computational cost can also be reduced. Finally, experiments are conducted under different temperatures to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm for various battery capacities.

Energy-delay-cost Tradeoff for Task Offloading in Imbalanced Edge Cloud Based Computing

In this paper, the imbalance edge cloud based computing offloading for multiple mobile users (MUs) with multiple tasks per MU is studied. In which, several edge cloud servers (ECSs) are shared and accessed by multiple wireless access points (APs) with the backhaul links, and each MU has multiple computing intensive and latency critical tasks should be offloaded to execute, which involves both the AP association and ECS selection, with the objective of minimizing the offloading cost. Distinguished with existing research, besides the transmission delay and energy consumption from MU to AP, the ECS access-cost which characterizes the ECS access delay and (or) resource using cost is introduced, thus finally formulates the delay-energy-cost tradeoff based offloading cost criteria, for the MUs' offloading decision and resource allocation problems. In specific, in our system, the ECS access-cost depends on both the AP and ECS, which reflects the effects of different backhaul techniques used by these APs, and their negotiated payments of ECS resource using under different service level agreements. Both problems of minimizing the sum offloading costs for all MUs (efficiency-based) and minimizing the maximal offloading cost per MU (fairness-based) are discussed. Since these problems are all NP-hard. Therefore, some centralized and distributed heuristic algorithms are proposed to find the suboptimal solutions. Further analysis and numerical results are presented at last to demonstrate the performance of these algorithms from several aspects, such as efficiency, complexity and fairness.
