To estimate state-of-charge (SOC) and state-ofhealth (SOH) of a lithium ion battery as exact as possible, the terminal voltage, the terminal current and the cell temperature have to be measured. The easiest model of a battery is an ohmiccapacitive (R-C) series-parallel circuit. Two measurement methods are shown how to get ready to estimate SOC and SOH in a simple but precise manner. The first measurement is a defined capacity package being discharged a battery until the battery is empty. The packages give data points in the correlation curve for open-circuit-voltage (OCV) and SOC. This is base for SOC estimation. To take degradation into account hundred full cycles are examined on the test cells with 15 parameter variations on the above mentioned three parameters voltage, current and temperature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
