Summary

This paper investigates a Fletcher-Reeves conjugate gradient optimized multi-reservoir echo state network (FRCG-MESN) to identify battery state of charge (SOC). First, an echo state network with multiple reservoirs is established to estimate battery SOC by using its discharge terminal voltage and current as the inputs, and the FR conjugate gradient algorithm is explored to tune the output weights of the MESN to avoid calculating the inverse matrix. Second, an appropriate amount of Gaussian noise with zero mean is added to the training set to prevent overfitting. Finally, a battery test platform is adopted to sample the discharging data under two working conditions: the Los Angeles 92 and the urban dynamometer driving schedule. The simulation results show that the presented FRCG-MESN method can accurately identify the battery SOC with different initial SOCs. Applying an appropriate amount of noise to the training set can prevent overfitting efficiently.
