Battery cells are connected in parallel to enlarge the system capacity. However, cell inconsistency may reduce the overall system capacity and cause the over-charging or over-discharging issue. This paper proposes a SOC-based sequencing equalizer for parallel-connected battery configuration that uses the ANFIS (adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system) algorithm to make the switching decision. Depend on the load current and the SOC (state-of-charge) rate of cells, the switching decision is made to equalize the SOC of the battery cells. The simulation results show that the system capacity is maximized and the controller is adaptive for a large number of parallel-connected in dynamic load profile.
