Nowadays mobile devices are used for various applications such as making voice/video calls, browsing the Internet, listening to music etc. The average battery consumption of each of these activities and the length of time a user spends on each one determines the battery lifetime of a mobile device. Previous methods have provided predictions of battery lifetime using a static battery consumption rate that does not consider user characteristics. This paper proposes an approach to predict a mobile device's available battery lifetime based on usage patterns. Because every user has a different pattern of voice calls, data communication, and video call usage, we can use such usage patterns for personalized prediction of battery lifetime. Firstly, we define one or more states that affect battery consumption. Then, we record time-series log data related to battery consumption and the use time of each state. We calculate the average battery consumption rate for each state and determine the usage pattern based on the time-series data. Finally, we predict the available battery time based on the average battery consumption rate for each state and the usage pattern. We also present the experimental trials used to validate our approach in the real world.

Currently, various researches on electric vehicle battery systems have been conducted from the viewpoint of safety and performance for SoC, SoH, etc. However, it is difficult to build a precise electrical model of a battery system based on the chemical reaction and SoC prediction. Experimental measurements and predictions of the battery SoC were usually performed using dynamometers. In this paper, we construct a simulation model of an electric vehicle system using Matlab Simulink, and confirm the response characteristics based on the vehicle test driving profiles. In addition, we show that it is possible to derive the correlation between the SoC, voltage, and current of the battery according to the driving time of the electric vehicle in conjunction with the BMS model.

Lithium-ion batteries are widely used in many applications due to their high energy density, high efficiency, and excellent cycle ability. Once an unknown Li-ion battery is reusable, it is important to measure its lifetime and state of health. The most favorable measurement method is the cycle test, which is accurate but time- and capacity-consuming. In this study, instead of a cycle test, we present an empirical model based on the C-rate test to understand the state of health of the battery in a short time. As a result, we show that the partially accelerated charge/discharge condition of the Li-ion battery is highly effective for the degradation of battery capacity, even when half of the charge/discharge conditions are the same. This observation provides a measurable method for predicting battery reuse and future capacity degradation.

Given that lithium-ion batteries are expected to be used as power sources for electric and hybrid vehicles, thermodynamics experimentation and prediction based on experimental data were performed. Thermal, electrochemical, and electrochemical/electrical-thermal models were used for accurate battery modeling. Various applications of different battery packs were demonstrated, and thermal analysis was performed using the same experimental conditions for square and rectangular battery packs. Accurate thermal analysis for a single cell should be prioritized to determine the thermal behavior of the battery pack. The energy balance equation, which contains heat generation and heat transfer factors, defines the thermal behavior of the battery pack. By comparing battery packs of different shapes tested under the same condition, this study revealed that the rectangular battery pack is superior to the square battery pack in terms of the maximum temperature of inner cells and temperature variation between cells.

In this research, we report on the development of simulation system for performance verification of BMS(Battery Management System) which is utilized in electric vehicles. In the industrial circles, a manufacturer of BMS typically tests their system with real battery packs. However, it takes a long time to test all functions of BMS. Here, we develop BMU(Battery Managament Unit) as an embedded board, which will be installed in electric vehicle for controlling battery packs. All other environment factors for testing BMU are developed in softwares in order to reduce the term of test. Especially, the proposed system consists of cell simulator and CMU(Cell Management Unit) simulator which simulate real battery cells and control battery cells. These simulators enable the BMU to test more battery cells. In addition, proposed system provides diagnosis program in order to diagnose and monitor the condition of BMS which makes the test of BMS more easily. In order to verify the performance of the developed simulator, we have performed the experiment with real battery packs and our simulator. Through comparing two results of experiments, we verify that developed simulator shows better performance in terms of less amount of testing duration though having high reliability.

최근들어 모바일기기의 다기능화 와 고성능화로 인하여, 배터리 사용량이 증가하고 있다. 하지만 필요한 컴퓨팅 파워에 비하여 배터리의 에너지 용량증가의 연구는 더디게 진행되고 있다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 우리는 배터리 방전특성을 이용하여, 배터리의 사용가능 유효용량을 증가시키는 연구를 하였으며, 무선 전송에서 시스템파워를 끄는 것만으로 배터리 사용시간 연장을 하는 기술을 설명한다. 실험은 표준영상 전송을 통하여 배터리 방전간격에 따른 배터리 사용시간을 측정하고, 사용될 어플리케이션과 발견적 실험을 통하여 배터리 사용시간의 최적화를 달성하였다.

The performance dynamics of battery is very sensitive to operating conditions (i.e temperature, load current, and state of charge). A model developed based on certain conditions may perform well under the similar conditions but can not accurately predict the performance for changing conditions. Thus, a generalized model is needed which can accurately emulate the battery dynamic behavior under all conditions. In addition, the components of the model should relate to the physicochemical processes that occur inside the battery. Electrochemical impedance curve shows better visible reflection of the processes inside battery as compared to voltage curve. The model trained for parameterization using neural network has better generalization than simple curve fitting. Thus, this study proposes recurrent neural network based parameterization of the Lithium ion battery model followed by impedance based identification.

In this paper, a new hybrid DC-DC converter is proposed for electric vehicle 3.3 kW on-board battery charger applications, which can be modulated in a phase-shift manner under a fixed frequency or frequency variation. By integrating a half-bridge (HB) LLC series resonant converter (SRC) into the conventional phase-shift full-bridge (PSFB) converter with a full-bridge rectifier, the proposed converter has many advantages such as a full soft-switching range without duty-cycle loss, zero-current-switching operation of the rectifier diodes, minimized circulating current, reduced filter inductor size, and better utilization of transformers than other hybrid dc-dc converters. The feasibility of the proposed converter has been verified by experimental results under an output voltage range of 250-420V dc at 3.3 kW.
