A Hybrid RUL Prediction Approach for Lithium-ion Batteries Based on CEEMDAN-SSA-SVR-BiGRU
Article Information
Abstract
The capacity regeneration phenomenon in lithium-ion batteries is inevitable and leads to non-monotonic fluctuations in capacity degradation trajectories, significantly complicating accurate remaining useful life (RUL) prediction. To address this challenge, this paper proposes a hybrid prediction model based on CEEMDAN-SSA-SVR-BiGRU. The method first employs Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise (CEEMDAN) to decompose the original capacity sequence into multiple Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs) representing local regeneration fluctuations, and a residual component (RES) referring to the global degradation trend, thereby achieving effective signal decoupling. Subsequently, distinct prediction strategies are applied to different components after decomposition. Support Vector Regression (SVR) is utilized to capture nonlinear local fluctuations, while Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit (BiGRU) models long-term dependencies. To further enhance the model performance, the Sparrow Search Algorithm (SSA) is introduced to jointly optimize kernel parameters and penalty factors in SVR, as well as architectural hyperparameters in BiGRU. Experimental results on the NASA lithium battery dataset demonstrate that the proposed model achieves higher accuracy, with Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE), and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) no more than 0.0067, 0.0049, and 0.0094, respectively, significantly outperforming the ablated models and some baseline models. This study validates that the integration of signal decomposition, component-specific modeling, and hyperparameter optimization yields a significant improvement in the accuracy and robustness of the RUL prediction for lithium-ion batteries under capacity regeneration.
