Abstract
This paper utilizes a Wireless Smart Battery Management System (WSBMS) to manage battery cells in Electric Vehicles (EVs). WSBMS is the cell-level Battery Management System (BMS) based on wireless communication. Compared with the conventional modularized BMS, the proposed system has the advantages of high fault tolerance and sufficient scalability. In addition, the proposed balancing algorithm based on the state-of- health (SOH) and the state-of-charge (SOC) can balance battery cells with any number, different aging states, and reasonable capacity deviation. A prototype is built, and the balancing algorithm is verified by simulation and experimental results considering four cases with different states of battery cells.
