Abstract: Due to the different characteristics of power systems, the maintenance strategy for traditional internal combustion engine vehicles is not suitable for electric vehicles. According to the historical operation data of electric vehicles, the change trend of its future cycle mileage can be predicted, and personalized maintenance suggestions can be put forward to prolong the service life of battery system. First, based on the slow charging data of the real electric vehicles, the IC curve of each cell under different charging segments is drawn. Pearson correlation analysis is used to extract features that have high correlations with mileage, then the IC feature zone of the battery pack can be constructed. In addition, the number of equivalent cycles, charging time, and average temperature are proven with a high correlation to cycle mileage. Using the above features and the average value and width of the IC feature zone, a 5-dimensional feature set can be constructed. Then, by using the multi-dimensional features as the input and the cycle mileage as the output, different data-driven models based on a variety of machine learning algorithms can be established. The results show that each model has good prediction accuracy, and the average error of cycle mileage prediction is less than 3%. Among them, the support vector regression model has the best prediction accuracy, and its average error is less than 1%. By predicting the future cycle mileage, the rate of battery degradation can be effectively identified, which provides guidance and suggestions for the maintenance of electric vehicles.
