Federated Battery Diagnosis and Prognosis

Battery diagnosis, prognosis and health management models play a critical role in the integration of battery systems in energy and mobility fields. However, large-scale deployment of these models is hindered by a myriad of challenges centered around data ownership, privacy, communication, and processing. State-of-the-art battery diagnosis and prognosis methods require centralized collection of data, which further aggravates these challenges. Here we propose a federated battery prognosis model, which distributes the processing of battery standard current-voltage-time-usage data in a privacy-preserving manner. Instead of exchanging raw standard current-voltage-time-usage data, our model communicates only the model parameters, thus reducing communication load and preserving data confidentiality. The proposed model offers a paradigm shift in battery health management through privacy-preserving distributed methods for battery data processing and remaining lifetime prediction.
