[0002] With the popularity of electric vehicles and portable devices, lithium-ion batteries have been widely used as energy storage devices with high energy density and long life. However, lithium-ion batteries may undergo lithium plating during use, that is, the lithium metal in lithium-ion batteries is deposited on the electrode surface during charging to form lithium dendrites or lithium particles, which may lead to a decline in battery performance, safety issues, and shorten the battery life. Traditional lithium plating detection methods usually require physical or chemical analysis after the battery is discharged, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but may also damage the battery and affect its ability to be reused or continued to be used. This reliance on performance consumption and high operational complexity limits its real-time nature and scope of application. At the same time, existing methods often find it difficult to achieve real-time monitoring of lithium plating behavior inside the battery. The lithium ion deposition process inside the battery may be dynamic, so it is necessary to be able to capture and analyze these changes in real time so that timely measures can be taken to prevent battery damage or safety accidents.

Based on the actual charge and discharge cycle data and ion migration trajectory simulation data, the lithium precipitation phenomenon is analyzed and identified, and the lithium precipitation detection model is constructed and optimized. By using the lithium ion migration trajectory obtained from the simulation data, the dynamic behavior of lithium ions in the battery can be accurately predicted and detected, which is helpful for real-time monitoring and management of battery performance. Through the lithium plating detection model, the real-time collected battery sensor data is analyzed and predicted, and the dynamic behavior changes of lithium ions are monitored in real time, so as to respond and adjust the charging strategy in time. Using the predicted lithium ion dynamic behavior data, the charging parameters are optimized, such as adjusting the charging current, voltage and other parameters to improve the charging efficiency and safety of the battery. The optimized charging parameters are transmitted to the charging control platform to implement the charging control task to ensure that the battery is charged with high efficiency and safety, and to extend the battery life and stability.
