A method based on LSTM-BP is put forward for power battery fault diagnosis to improve the accuracy of lithium battery fault diagnosis. First, a lithium battery model is constructed based on the second-order RC equivalent circuit and the electro-thermal coupling model, and various lithium battery failures are simulated to examine the fault characteristics. Then, the lithium battery charging and discharging experiments collect, clean, and process the battery data. By constructing a neural network LSTM-BP model, we verified the superiority and accuracy of the LSTM-BP neural network model by comparing the LSTM model and BP model vertically and by comparing the Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) model, the Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) model, and the Residual Neural Network (ResNet) model of a more advanced architecture horizontally. Finally, the lithium battery fault diagnosis process is summarized through the threshold quantitative criteria, and different faults are diagnosed and analyzed. The results show that the LSTM-BP neural network not only overcomes the limitations of the LSTM neural network and BP neural network but also improves the ability to process sequence data and reduces the risk of overfitting.
