APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR BATTERY STATE OF CHARGE ESTIMATION

摘要

An apparatus and method for battery state of charge (SOC) estimation can reduce the estimation error in the battery SOC. The apparatus includes a charge/discharge current detection unit, a terminal voltage detection unit, a first estimation unit that estimates a first SOC by integrating the charge/discharge current value, a second estimation unit that estimates an open circuit voltage value from the charge/discharge current value and the terminal voltage value and estimates a second SOC from the open circuit voltage value, a first difference calculation unit that calculates a SOC difference between the first SOC and the second SOC, an error estimation unit that estimates, based on the SOC difference, an error as a state quantity of an error model by using the error model, and a second difference calculation unit that calculates a SOC of the battery by subtracting the error from the first SOC.
