Abstract
- Lithium-Ion battery packs are an essential component for electric vehicles (EVs). These packs are configured from hundreds of series and parallel connected cells to provide the necessary power and energy for the vehicle. An accurate, adaptable battery management system (BMS) is essential to monitor and control such a large number of cells. Series and parallel connected cells also experience different production and operational conditions, which makes it challenging for the BMS to ensure the safe operation of each individual cell. The main functions of the BMS include battery state estimation, cell balancing, thermal management, and fault diagnosis. Robust estimation of the state of charge (SOC) is crucial for providing the driver with an accurate indication of the remaining range. This paper presents the state of art of battery pack SOC estimation methods along with the impact of cell inconsistency on pack performance and SOC estimation. Cell balancing methods, which are necessary due to cell inconsistencies, are discussed as well. Four categories of pack SOC estimation methods are presented, including individual cell, lumped cell, reference cell, and mean cell and difference estimation methods. The SOC estimation methods are compared in terms of algorithm type, computational load, and engineering effort to help practitioners decide which method best fits their application.
