Research Paper

State of Charge Estimation Comparison of Long Short-Term Memory and Feed Forward Neural Network on Lithium-Ion Battery, Muhammad Hammad Uddin, Ilsa Kashif, Ushna Asim, Wardah Mushtaq, Zahra Khan, Through extensive experimentation LSTM models consistently deliver higher prediction accuracy. It is appropriate for dynamic and real-time battery management applications because its performance held steady even in the face of extreme temperatures. FNN model demonstrated accuracy limitations, especially at lower temperatures, despite being faster to train and more computationally efficient. The decision between LSTM and FNN ultimately comes down to the needs of the application.

Projects

State-of-Charge Prediction for Li-ion Batteries, Developed an intelligent battery management system using Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks to accurately predict the state-of-charge (SOC) in lithium-ion batteries, aimed at enhancing the reliability of energy storage in electric vehicles and renewable systems. Modeled and simulated the complete system in MATLAB/Simulink, achieving high prediction accuracy with minimal RMSE under varying load conditions., MATLAB, Simulink, Deep Learning Toolbox, Battery Blocks, Python, Variable Power Supply, Designed and built a variable power supply to provide adjustable voltage for circuit testing., Temperature Sensor, Developed a temperature sensing circuit to accurately detect and display ambient temperature changes., DC Motor Speed Control Power, Constructed a speed control system for a DC motor using variable voltage/PWM techniques for efficient operation., Amplifier, Designed and fabricated an amplifier circuit to boost low-level signals for audio or sensor applications., DC Generator, Assembled a working DC generator to demonstrate principles of electromagnetic induction and power generation., Function Generator, Built a function generator capable of producing sine, square, and triangular waveforms for lab experimentation.
