The MCU maintains stable output by controlling the inverter, adjustable power module and supercapacitor discharge channel according to the collected data, and performs protection actions and mode switching when necessary. The hot-swappable battery module management is based on the MCU's monitoring of module identification signals and plug-in event interrupts. When a new module is inserted, the system energy storage information is automatically updated, and when it is unplugged, other modules are ensured to smoothly take over the load power supply.
[0049] In terms of software and algorithm logic, AI-driven power management system is the key, which includes battery state estimation, load demand prediction, charge and discharge optimization strategy, MPPT control, supercapacitor coordinated discharge and predictive maintenance algorithm, battery state estimation and SOC / SOH calculation: using the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) method to estimate the state of charge (SOC) and health state (SOH) of battery cells. represents the state vector, where For the The state of charge at the moment, is the internal impedance. The measurement vector can be defined as:
[0050] ;
[0051] The state equation and measurement equation can be expressed as:
[0052]
[0053] For input (such as charge and discharge current instructions), is Gaussian noise, is a nonlinear function. EKF iterates through linearization, prediction and update steps to obtain the estimated SOC and internal impedance. The estimation of SOH is based on the capacity decay and internal impedance growth trend. If the initial nominal capacity is After one charge and discharge cycle, the capacity is , SOH is defined as:
[0054] ;
[0055] Load demand prediction and power usage habit learning: To achieve a better discharge strategy, the system trains time series models, such as long short-term memory (LSTM) neural networks, through historical load data to predict future load power demand. Assume that the load power at the past N moments is: LSTM captures the timing features through the internal gating mechanism and outputs the future m-step prediction value as:
[0056] ;
[0057]
[0058] The final output layer is based on Map out the predicted load power,
[0059] The output of the forget gate determines how much of the memory cell state at the previous moment needs to be forgotten. Its value is between 0 and 1, where 0 represents complete forgetfulness and 1 represents complete retention. Sigmoid activation function ensures that the output value is between 0 and 1, indicating the proportion of forgetting. : Weight matrix, which represents the influence of input and previous hidden state on forget gate. The weight matrix is learned through training. : The hidden state of the previous moment (i.e. the output information of the previous moment), The input data at the current moment is the historical data of the load power or external influencing factors in this application). Bias term, adjusts the output offset. The output of the input gate indicates how much of the input information at the current moment will be written into the memory unit (i.e., the degree of impact on the load demand at the current moment). Weight matrix for the input gate. Bias term for the input gate. The new candidate memory unit represents the potential memory content after activation of the current input (load demand). The weight matrix connects the input data with the hidden state and controls the generation of memory cells. Tanh: Hyperbolic tangent activation function, which limits its output between -1 and 1 to adjust the value range of memory cells. The memory cell state at the current moment represents the historical information retained by the LSTM network at the current moment. : The part controlled by the forget gate determines the memory unit of the previous moment ( How much to forget in the present moment. : The part controlled by the input gate determines the new information at the current moment How much goes into the memory unit. The output of the output gate determines how much information is released from the memory cell. The weight matrix of the output gate controls the influence of the hidden state at the previous moment and the input at the current moment on the output. Bias term for the output gate. The hidden state at the current moment is used as the output of LSTM for calculation at the next moment and prediction at the current moment. At each time step of LSTM, the hidden state at the current moment Contains information about historical load demand. Through these historical data, LSTM can capture the time series characteristics of load changes and predict future load demand. The goal of load demand prediction is to generate load power forecasts for the next period of time. .
[0060] Use LSTM model to perform multi-step forecast of load demand, the goal is to predict the load demand based on the historical load power sequence. ) to predict future load power demand. Based on the output of LSTM , we convert it into the predicted load power through a fully connected layer (linear layer)
[0061]
[0062] : Predicted load power at time Forecasted load demand. The weight matrix obtained through training is used to transform the hidden state Mapped to the prediction value space, Bias term for predicting output. LSTM, through its unique structure, can capture the long-term dependency of load demand in multi-step prediction. For example, in a battery management system, the accuracy of load demand prediction directly affects the battery charging and discharging strategy and the system energy scheduling strategy. Long-term dependency: LSTM is able to retain long-term dependency information of load demand. For example, the load may be lower at night, while the load demand will be higher during the day. LSTM learns these periodic changes through historical data and effectively predicts short-term changes: LSTM is also able to learn short-term load change trends (such as changes in user behavior, device turning on or off), and reflect these sudden changes by updating memory cells in a timely manner.
[0063] Discharge strategy and charging optimization: The system schedules discharge and charging in the form of optimization problems. is the battery output power, is the solar input power, To predict load demand. The goal is to extend battery life and reduce battery aging while ensuring load power supply. A multi-objective optimization problem can be defined:
[0064] ;
[0065] is the predicted sustainable operating time, is the battery aging rate (determined by the internal impedance growth and capacity loss model), To meet the adaptability of instantaneous load changes. Constraints include:
[0066]
[0067] The optimization is iterated through a linear or nonlinear programming solver, and the decision variables are updated according to real-time data in each control cycle.
[0068] MPPT control: When connected to a solar panel, by measuring the solar voltage With current , and continuously adjust the duty cycle 𝐷 to reach the maximum power point. The perturbation and observation method is: ; Then continue to perturb D in the same direction, otherwise perturb in the opposite direction. Continuous iteration can make the solar energy output power close to the maximum value.
[0069] Supercapacitor coordinated discharge: when instantaneous load power demand is detected The surge exceeds the battery's safe discharge limit When the MCU issues a command quickly, the supercapacitor releases current to meet the Supercapacitors achieve millisecond response through high-speed MOSFET switching, reducing the instantaneous stress of battery cells.
[0070] Predictive maintenance and early fault identification: The power management system records the internal impedance changes, charge and discharge rates, and capacity decay curves of each battery cell. If the initial internal impedance is And it increases over time, then The capacity fade can be described as (capacity threshold) or When the system determines that the battery is aging or has a potential fault, it will notify the user through the human-machine interface to replace the battery module, or automatically reduce the weight of the module in power supply to achieve continuous and efficient operation.
[0071] Multi-energy convergence and redundancy strategy: When solar energy is insufficient or the battery module performance degrades, the system automatically switches to other available energy sources (such as vehicle-mounted DC input) based on the optimization solution results and dynamically allocates power flow. , and solve the optimal solution under the current SOC constraints To ensure continuous power supply. This process is consistent with discharge optimization and belongs to the category of solving multi-constraint optimization problems. Specific embodiment 2:
[0073] like Figure 1-4 As shown, in shutdown state, the external 12V input power automatically turns on the machine, and the button function cannot shut down the machine; when there is no external 12V input, the button turns the machine on and off.
[0074] The external DC12V power supply starts the UPS uninterruptible power supply. One path is controlled by the LDO chip to output power to the microcontroller, so that the microcontroller outputs the EN power-on signal; one path is sent to the battery charging circuit through the MOS; the other path is sent to the DC-DC circuit through the Schottky diode, and the DC12V is output to power the equipment.
[0075] The single chip microcomputer detects that the external input voltage is greater than 11.1V, outputs the DC_EN signal, and the charging chip charges the battery with constant voltage and constant current.
[0076] It is powered by ternary lithium battery and has a built-in high-efficiency chip battery protection board. When the over-discharge voltage of a single battery is equal to 2.75V, the chip monitor sends a signal to drive the over-discharge MOS to cut off and start the over-discharge protection; when the discharge voltage returns to 3.0V, the chip sends a signal to turn on the over-discharge MOS to release the over-discharge. When the battery over-charge voltage is higher than 4.3V, the chip monitor sends a signal to drive the over-charge MOS to cut off and start the over-charge protection; when the charge voltage is lower than 4.1V, the chip sends a signal to turn on the over-charge MOS to release the over-charge.
[0077] When there is no external input, it is powered by batteries. The EN signal controls the operation of the two internal DC-DC circuits, outputting DC12V and DC9V.
[0078] When the external power supply is suddenly interrupted, the single-chip microcomputer monitors and sends a control signal to automatically switch to battery power supply. At the same time, the 9V and 12V DC-DC circuits output DC9V and DC12V to power the equipment, ensuring uninterrupted normal operation of the equipment.
[0079] Built-in output over-current and short-circuit protection circuit. When the output load reaches the over-current value or short-circuit, the microcontroller detects the over-current signal, turns off the EN1 signal output, and then turns on the EN1 signal after an interval of 4S, and then detects the load value again. This process is repeated until the device works normally.
[0080] The battery power is intelligently detected during charging and discharging. When the power reaches a certain working point, the microcontroller detects the corresponding output signal to control the lighting of the corresponding indicator light to prompt the current battery power and the working status of the UPS power supply; during discharging, when the power is insufficient, it will flash to prompt, and when the battery voltage is lower than 9V, it will automatically shut down to avoid over-discharge of the battery.
[0081] This self-protection UPS power system is designed to provide stable, reliable and intelligent power supply, especially suitable for the long-term battery life requirements of mobile digital devices (such as mobile phones, iPads, etc.). The system integrates multiple hardware modules and intelligent control algorithms to achieve comprehensive management of power input, charging and discharging process, overcurrent protection and user interaction, ensuring the continuous normal operation of the device under different power conditions.
[0082] The core of the system consists of the main control module (MCU), battery module, inverter module, power input interface and output interface. The external 12V power supply is connected to the LDO voltage regulator chip through a Schottky diode to prevent reverse current, and stably step down the 12V to the low voltage required by the MCU (such as 5V) to power the MCU and other low-voltage circuits. The main control module is equipped with an artificial intelligence-driven power management system that can monitor the remaining battery power, load demand and environmental parameters in real time, and dynamically adjust the discharge strategy and intelligent charging solution to achieve ultra-long battery life for a variety of mobile terminal devices. When the external 12V power supply is connected and the voltage is greater than 11.1V, the MCU will output the EN signal to start the charging circuit, charge the battery with constant voltage and constant current, monitor the battery voltage at the same time, and control the MOSFET switch through the built-in battery protection board to ensure that the battery is charged and discharged within a safe voltage range.
[0083] The battery module consists of three strings of lithium battery cells and is equipped with an efficient chip battery protection board to monitor the voltage of each battery cell in real time. When the over-discharge voltage of any battery cell reaches 2.75V, the protection chip drives the over-discharge MOSFET to cut off, cutting off the discharge path to prevent the battery from over-discharging; when the battery voltage returns to 3.0V, the protection chip re-conducts the MOSFET to resume discharging. Similarly, when the over-charge voltage of the battery cell exceeds 4.3V, the protection chip drives the over-charge MOSFET to cut off and stop charging; when the charging voltage is lower than 4.1V, the protection chip re-conducts the MOSFET to resume charging.
[0084] When there is no external 12V power supply input, the system automatically switches to the battery power supply mode. The single-chip microcomputer controls two internal DC-DC converters through the EN signal to output DC12V and DC9V respectively, ensuring continuous power supply for the device. During this process, a supercapacitor module is introduced to cope with instantaneous high-power demands. Specifically, when the load suddenly increases, causing the power demand to exceed the safe discharge capacity of the battery, the supercapacitor can instantaneously release a high current, relieve the discharge pressure of the battery, ensure the stability of the output voltage, and extend the battery life.
[0085] The system is also equipped with an over-current protection circuit to monitor the output load current in real time. When an over-current or short-circuit situation is detected, the single-chip microcomputer will immediately turn off the EN1 signal and disconnect the output MOSFET to protect the device and the circuit from damage. Subsequently, the system will attempt to reconnect the output after a 4-second interval and detect the load current again. If the over-current situation still exists, the system will continue to disconnect the output until the load returns to normal.
[0086] In terms of power detection and management, the single-chip microcomputer calculates the SOC (state of charge) by monitoring the battery voltage and current:
[0087] According to the SOC value, the single-chip microcomputer controls the indicator light to display the current power status: when SOC > 70%, the green LED is constantly on; when 40% < SOC ≤ 70%, the yellow LED flashes slowly; when 10% < SOC ≤ 40%, the orange LED flashes quickly; when SOC ≤ 10%, the red LED flashes quickly and automatically shuts down to prevent the battery from over-discharging.
[0088] In addition, the system also integrates an AI-driven load prediction and energy management algorithm. Using historical data and real-time monitoring, it predicts future load demands and dynamically adjusts the charge and discharge strategies and solar input optimization. The specific algorithm steps include: first, estimating the SOC and SOH (state of health) through the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) method. The EKF achieves accurate estimation of the SOC and SOH through linearization and iterative updates.
[0089] Secondly, the long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network model is used to predict load demand. The load power data of the past N moments is input and the predicted value of the next m moments is output. This prediction result helps the system optimize the discharge strategy and charging timing to ensure efficient energy utilization under different load conditions. The discharge strategy optimization is implemented in the form of a multi-objective optimization problem, with the goals of maximizing battery life, minimizing battery aging rate, and meeting instantaneous high power demand.
[0090] Through linear or nonlinear programming solvers, the system updates decision variables according to real-time data in each control cycle to achieve optimal energy distribution.
[0091] In terms of MPPT (maximum power point tracking) control, when the solar panel is connected, the system adjusts the PWM duty cycle D to achieve maximum power output by measuring the voltage Vpv and current Ipv of the solar panel.
[0092] When the instantaneous power demand of the load exceeds the safe discharge limit of the battery, the MCU instructs the supercapacitor module to release additional current:
[0093] Through high-speed MOSFET switching, the supercapacitor responds within milliseconds, ensuring stable output voltage and reducing instantaneous stress on the battery cell.
[0094] The predictive maintenance function analyzes the internal impedance and capacity attenuation of battery cells. The system determines battery aging or potential failures, and issues pre-maintenance suggestions to users or automatically adjusts module activation strategies to ensure the continued efficiency and stability of the system over long periods of use.
[0095] In terms of multi-energy input and intelligent convergence, the system supports the simultaneous access of solar panels and vehicle-mounted DC power supplies, and realizes intelligent convergence and distribution of power from multiple sources through unified control of the AI system. When solar energy is insufficient or the performance of a battery module declines, the system automatically switches to other available energy sources, forming a dynamic redundancy and collaborative power supply strategy to ensure long-term stable and continuous power supply in complex environments.
[0096] The operation of the entire system depends on efficient hardware coordination and intelligent software algorithms. The main control module (single-chip microcomputer) ensures intelligent and efficient power management through high-speed sampling and real-time data processing, combined with AI-driven prediction and optimization algorithms. The inverter module uses wide-bandgap semiconductor devices (such as GaN and SiC) to improve power conversion efficiency, reduce energy loss, and extend battery life. Multiple protection mechanisms are executed simultaneously at the hardware and software levels to ensure the safety and reliability of the system under abnormal conditions. The indicator display module uses intuitive LED indicators to provide users with real-time feedback on battery power and system status, improving user experience and operational convenience.
