...

  • Accurate voltage measurements can be made while a cell is resting (ensure that cell has been resting for a considerable amount of time)

...

  • The relation between capacity and voltage is non-linear. A typical model is shown below

...

  • PCB component accuracy

    • Ideally components with low drift/offset

    • Trace length may affect resistance

  • Instrumentation accuracy

    • ADC resolution

    • Sampling rate - Is the sampling fast enough to capture waveforms and integrate

    • Voltage drift (RESEARCH THIS MORE)

    • Noise immunity

  • Cell model accuracy

    • Capacity is susceptible to degradation upon repeat cycles, how does the model accurately capture this.

    • Hard and time consuming to extract adequate parameters using collected data, for resistances and OCV

  • Temperature

    • Impact parameters, especially resistance, and including max capacity, OCV, capacitance

  • Aging

...

  • We want to predict the actual battery voltage curve

  • Start with OCV, then correct it using the internal resistance and current

  • Then correct it using the value of the low temperature, leaving us with the green curve which accurately resembles the actual battery voltage curve

Impedance Track Fuel-Gauging

  • Includes advantages of both voltage lookup and coulomb counting

  • Allows for SOC updates, where initial SOC can be measured when voltage is relaxed, in addition to self-discharge

  • Impedance can be measured during discharge

  • Total capacity can be measure without full discharge or charge
