4.1.8: Where from here?

Summary of this week

key off: store data

key on: initialize
meas. voltage estimate estimate balance compute

 This week, you learned that cell static and dynamic

current state of state of power
temperature charge (SOC) health (SOH) cells limits

loop once each measurement interval while pack is active

characteristics change as the cells age

 Generally, capacity is lost. . . “capacity fade”
 Generally, resistance increases. . . “power fade”
 You learned, qualitatively, many of the specific degradation mechanisms in both the
negative and positive electrodes
 You learned that cell voltage is very sensitive to changes in resistance, so
resistance is relatively simple to estimate well
 You learned that cell voltage is very insensitive to changes in total capacity, so total
capacity is very difficult to estimate well

 Next week, you will begin to learn ways to estimate cell total

capacity
loop once each measurement interval while pack is active

 First, as a baseline method, you will learn how to use

ordinary and weighted least-squares methods
 You will learn that while these methods are very simple to
implement, they produce biased estimates of total capacity
 You will learn improved total-least-squares methods that are
unbiased, but impractical to implement in a BMS
 However, later in the course you will learn how to make
practical unbiased estimators
