Abstract: With the rapid development of Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit technology, lithium-ion battery as its main power source, the research of its charging technology has become particularly important. At present, the charging scheme of lithium-ion battery mainly includes two ways: single high-power charging and multiple low-power charging modules in parallel. However, the single high-power charging scheme has the problems of high cost and low efficiency, and the traditional parallel charging method lacks effective module management strategy, resulting in unbalanced load between modules during charging, affecting charging efficiency a nd safety. A iming at the shortcomings of current research, this paper proposes a parallel charging scheme of multiple DC-DC modules based on cooperative control. By designing a closed-loop control system of current inner loop and voltage outer loop, the precise control and cooperative work of parallel modules are realized. The experimental results show that the scheme not only improves the charging efficiency, but also ensures the stability and safety of the charging process, which provides an effective and reliable solution for the lithium-ion battery charging of the intelligent rail train.
