The estimation of the state of charge is a critical function in the operation of electric vehicles. The battery management system must provide accurate information about the battery state, even in the presence of failures in the vehicle sensors. This article presents a new methodology for the state of charge estimation (SOC) in electric vehicles without the use of a battery current sensor, relying on a virtual sensor, based on other available vehicle measurements, such as speed, battery voltage and acceleration pedal position. The estimator was derived from experimental data, employing support vector regression (SVR), principal component analysis (PCA) and a dual polarization (DP) battery model (BM). It is shown that the obtained model is able to predict the state of charge of the battery with acceptable precision in the case of a failure of the current sensor.
