TECHNICAL FIELD

The invention relates to the field of system upgrade assessment, and specifically provides a system upgrade assessment method based on system parameter correlation coefficients.


BACKGROUND ART

In the prior art, when a system (e.g., a control system for a battery swapping station) is upgraded, a strategy of first gray-scale upgrade (first upgrade to small-range devices) and then gradual comprehensive upgrade is generally used, and then the upgrade results of gray-scale upgrade devices and comprehensive upgrade devices are assessed. The assessment method for upgrade results usually makes a determination by comparing system/device faults and whether the values of key parameters are still within a threshold range before and after the upgrade.


However, there are certain defects in this method. Specifically, some faults have a “cumulative effect” that is usually reflected after a period of time the upgrade is ended; moreover, the key parameters change within the threshold range, which does not mean that the changes of the parameters before and after the upgrade are still normal changes.


Accordingly, a new system upgrade assessment method is required in the art to solve the problems.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

Preferred embodiments of the invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that these embodiments are only for explaining the technical principles of the invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the invention. For example, although the Description is illustrated by way of an example of a control system for a battery swapping station for electric vehicles, it is apparent that the system upgrade assessment method of the invention is applicable to any system that needs to be upgraded, and those skilled in the art can make an adjustment as needed to adapt to specific application scenarios.


As shown in FIG. 1, a system upgrade assessment method based on system parameter correlation coefficients of the invention includes: step S110, acquiring first data for a plurality of parameters before system upgrade; step S120, acquiring second data for the plurality of parameters after the system upgrade; step S130, calculating first correlation coefficients of the first data and second correlation coefficients of the second data; step S140, calculating third correlation coefficients between the first data and the corresponding second data; and step S150, determining, based on the magnitudes of the first correlation coefficients, the second correlation coefficients and the third correlation coefficients, whether the system upgrade succeeds. It should be noted that the system of the invention may be any software system that needs to be upgraded.


Specifically, in step S110, first data for a plurality of parameters of a system that is normally operating before upgrade are collected first, with the collection operation being performed multiple times at a constant time interval or a varying time interval, and the first data being a plurality of collected values of the plurality of parameters at multiple different times within a period of time. Preferably, the plurality of parameters are key parameters of the system, and the key parameters are parameters that can play a decisive role for system operating performance. Alternatively, those skilled in the art may appropriately adjust the selection of and the number of key parameters based on actual needs. Further, those skilled in the art may also select all parameters of the entire system and acquire first data of all the parameters as needed.


Specifically, in step S120, second data for the same plurality of parameters of the system after same is upgraded are collected first, with the collection operation being also performed multiple times at a constant time interval or a varying time interval, and the second data being a plurality of collected values of the plurality of parameters at multiple different times within a period of time.


Specifically, in step S130, first correlation coefficients of the first data for the parameters acquired in step S110 are calculated, and second correlation coefficients of the second data for the parameters acquired in step S120 are calculated. It should be noted that the first correlation coefficients and the second correlation coefficients are obtained from two key parameters by calculation through a formula (described in detail below).


Specifically, in step S140, third correlation coefficients between the first data for the parameters that are acquired in step S110 and the second data for the same parameters that are acquired in step S120 are calculated. The third correlation coefficients are obtained from the corresponding first data and second data by calculation through the same formula as that in step S130 (described in detail below).


Specifically, in step S150, first, differences between the corresponding first correlation coefficients and second correlation coefficients are calculated, and absolute values of the results are solved to obtain first absolute values. Next, differences between the third correlation coefficients and the number 1 are calculated, and absolute values of the results are solved to obtain second absolute values. Then, when the first absolute values are less than a set first threshold and the second absolute values are less than a set second threshold, it is determined that the system upgrade succeeds; and when the first absolute values are greater than or equal to the set first threshold or the second absolute values are greater than or equal to the set second threshold, it is determined that the system upgrade fails. The first threshold and the second threshold may be set by those skilled in the art based on the type of the system to be upgraded and by trial or based on the desired performance to be achieved after the system upgrade.


Regarding the method, it should be noted that although the method has been described in a specific order in this application, this is not restrictive, and those skilled in the art may adjust the order of the steps as needed. For example, step S130 may be split into two sub-steps for respectively calculating the first correlation coefficients and the second correlation coefficients, wherein the sub-step of calculating the first correlation coefficients may be performed before step S120, and the sub-step of calculating the second correlation coefficients may be performed after step S120. Moreover, step S140 may also be performed before the current step S130, or before the sub-step of calculating the second correlation coefficients. These variations and adjustments do not depart from the principles of the invention, and therefore will fall within the scope of protection of the invention.


The system upgrade assessment method of the invention will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 2 to 6, taking a control system for a battery swapping station for electric vehicles as an example.


As shown in FIG. 2, first, a plurality of parameters, such as A, B, and C, are selected for the system before same is upgraded, where A represents a charging current of the battery swapping station for a traction battery, B represents a charging voltage of the battery swapping station for the traction battery, and C represents a charging efficiency of the battery swapping station for the traction battery. It could be understood by those skilled in the art that the key parameters of the control system for the battery swapping station for electric vehicles are not limited to the charging current, the charging voltage and the charging efficiency, and those skilled in the art may appropriately adjust the key parameters as needed, as long as the upgraded system can be accurately assessed. Then, data (i.e., first data) is collected one every 1 minute for A, B, and C, and recorded.


As shown in FIG. 3, first correlation coefficients among the parameters A, B, and C may be calculated according to the following correlation coefficient formula,

where i is a positive integer from 1 to 1140, rAB represents a first correlation coefficient between parameters A and B, Ā represents an average value of parameter A in 1440 sampling points, B represents an average value of parameter B in 1440 sampling points, Ai represents an actual value of parameter A in each of the 1440 sampling points before system upgrade, and Bi represents an actual value of parameter B in each of the 1440 sampling points before system upgrade. Further, the first data of A and C are substituted into formula (1) to obtain a correlation coefficient rAC (first correlation coefficient) between A and C, and the first data of B and C are substituted into formula (1) to obtain a correlation coefficient rBC (first correlation coefficient) between B and C.


As shown in FIG. 4, the charging current, the charging voltage, and the charging efficiency after the system upgrade are respectively denoted by A′, B′, and C′, and data (i.e., second data) is collected once every 1 minute.



FIG. 5 shows second correlation coefficients between the parameters after the system upgrade. Specifically, the second data of A′ and B′ are substituted into formula (1) to obtain a correlation coefficient rA′B′ (second correlation coefficient) between A′ and B′, the second data of A′ and C′ are substituted into formula (1) to obtain a correlation coefficient rA′C′ (second correlation coefficient) between A′ and C′, and the second data of B′ and C′ are substituted into formula (1) to obtain a correlation coefficient rB′C′ (second correlation coefficient) between B′ and C′.



FIG. 6 shows third correlation coefficients between the first data and the second data of the same parameters before and after the system upgrade. Specifically, the first data of A and the second data of A′ are substituted into formula (1) to obtain a correlation coefficient rAA′ (third correlation coefficient) between A and A′, the first data of B and the second data of B′ are substituted into formula (1) to obtain a correlation coefficient rBB′ (third correlation coefficient) between B and B′, and the first data of C and the second data of C′ are substituted into formula (1) to obtain a correlation coefficient rCC′ (third correlation coefficient) between C and C′.


It should be noted that the greater the absolute value of the correlation coefficient r, the stronger the correlation, that is, the closer to 1 or −1 the correlation coefficient r, the stronger the correlation, otherwise, the closer to 0 the correlation coefficient r, the weaker the correlation. Preferably, the strength of correlation between the system parameters is determined by the following range of values (the value is the absolute value of the correlation coefficient r):


0.8-1.0 extremely strong correlation;


0.6-0.8 strong correlation;


0.4-0.6 medium correlation;


0.2-0.4 weak correlation;


0.0-0.2 extremely weak correlation or non-correlation.


Therefore, the condition that the system upgrade succeeds is: |rA′B′−rAB|<σ1 and |rA′C′−rAC|<σ1 and |rB′C′−rBC|<σ1 and |1−rAA′|<σ2 and |1−rBB′|<σ2 and |1−rCC′|<σ2. Conversely, when |rA′B′−rAB|>σ1 or |rA′C′−rAC|>σ1 or |rB′C′−rBC|>σ1 or |1−rAA′|>σ2 or |1−rBB′|>σ2 or |1−rCC′|>σ2, it is determined that the system upgrade fails.


σ1 and σ2 are respectively a first threshold and a second threshold within a reasonable change interval (e.g., σ1=0.1, σ2=0.2), or those skilled in the art may also appropriately adjust the values of σ1 and σ2 according to different software systems and different needs, as long as the upgraded system can be accurately assessed.


In summary, the system upgrade assessment method based on system parameter correlation coefficients of the invention assesses a system before and after upgrade by changes in correlation coefficients of system parameters (especially key parameters), which can reflect the trend difference of the system before and after the upgrade, so that the upgraded system can be accurately assessed. Moreover, the system upgrade assessment method of the invention can easily obtain the parameters of upgrade failure and further obtain the cause of the system upgrade failure, thus facilitating upgrade personnel in finding the cause of the system upgrade failure.


It is not difficult to see from the above that the first absolute values and the second absolute values are both obtained from the first data and the second data of the corresponding parameters before and after the system upgrade, and compared with the second absolute values, the first absolute values can better reflect the trend difference before and after the system upgrade. Therefore, it may be determined, only by the magnitudes of the first absolute values, whether the system upgrade succeeds.


Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7, another embodiment of the system upgrade assessment method based on system parameter correlation coefficients of the invention includes: step S210, acquiring first data for a plurality of parameters before system upgrade; step S220, acquiring second data for the plurality of parameters after the system upgrade; step S230, calculating first correlation coefficients of the first data for the parameters; step S240, calculating second correlation coefficients of the second data for the parameters; and step S250, determining, based on the magnitudes of the first correlation coefficients and the second correlation coefficients, whether the system upgrade succeeds Similarly, the steps S230 and S220 may also be interchanged in their order without departing from the basic principle and scope of protection of the invention.


Because the acquisition of the parameters and the calculation of the correlation coefficients have been described in detail above, no further description is given here.


Heretofore, the technical solutions of the invention have been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the drawings; however, it could be easily understood by those skilled in the art that the scope of protection of the invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the related technical features without departing from the principles of the invention, and all the technical solutions after the changes or substitutions will fall within the scope of protection of the invention.
