Active Cell Balancing Control Method for Series-Connected Lithium-Ion Battery

Abstract

Power conveyance potentiality for series and parallel allied battery-packages are constrained by the wickedest cell of the string. Every cell contains marginally dissimilar capability and terminal voltage because of industrialized acceptances and functional situations. During charging or discharging progression, the charge status of the cell strings become imbalanced and incline to loss equalization. Therefore, the enthusiasm of this paper is to design an active charge balancing system for Lithium-ion battery pack with the help of online state of charge (SOC) estimation technique. A Battery Management System (BMS) is modeled by means of controlling the SOC of the cells to upsurge the efficacy of rechargeable batteries. The capacity of each cell is calculated by dint of SOC function estimated as a result of Backpropagation Neural Network (BPNN) algorithm through four switched DC/DC Buck-Boost converter. The simulation results confirm that the designed BMS can synchronize the cell equalization via curtailing the SOC estimation error (RMSE 1.20%) productively.
