1.1: INTRODUCTION
State of charge (SoC) is the level of charge of an electric battery relative to its capacity. The
units of SoC are percentage points (0% = empty; 100% = full). An alternative form of the
same measure is the depth of discharge (DoD), the inverse of SoC (100% = empty; 0% =
full). SoC is normally used when discussing the current state of a battery in use, while DoD
is most often seen when discussing the lifetime of the battery after repeated use.
In a battery electric vehicle (BEV), hybrid vehicle (HV), or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle
(PHEV), SoC for the battery pack is the equivalent of a fuel gauge. It is important to mention
that state of charge, presented as a gauge or percentage value on any vehicle dashboard,
especially in plug-in hybrid vehicles, may not be representative of a real level of charge. In
that particular case, some noticeable amount of energy stored in the electric battery is not
shown on the dashboard, and is reserved for hybrid-work operations. It permits a vehicle to
accelerate with electric motors mainly using battery energy, while the petrol engine serves as
a generator and recharges the battery to the minimum level needed for such operation.
Examples of such cars are Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV (all versions/years of production),
where 0% of the state of charge presented to the driver is a real 20-22% of charge level
(assuming zero level as the lowest level of charge permitted by car producer). Another one is
BMW i3 REX (Range Extender version), where about 6% of SOC is reserved for PHEV-
alike operations. Tesla has stated that their SoC should be less than 95%, with some
commentators saying between 30%-80% Archived 2021-01-11 at the Wayback Machine.
There is some data to back this up as well.
The state of charge (SOC) can help to reduce electrical car's owners' anxiety when they are
waiting in the line or stay at home since it will reflect the progress of charging and let
owners know when it will be ready.
⚫ Voltage method.
⚫ Coulomb counting method
⚫ Kalman filter
⚫ Measuring using hydrometer
Drawbacks:
⚫ It ignores effects of diffusion voltages,hysterisis and so is still noisy.
⚫ Hysteris is another complicating factor.
The coulomb counting equation to compute the state of charge(SOC) of the battery is given
by,
where Δk = t(k + 1) − t(k) is the sampling duration between two adjacent samples.
The widely known form of the Coulomb counting equation can be written as follows
⚫ It is a simple method .
⚫ It can be used as base for more complex methods.
⚫ Many other factors like temperature,fluctation of battery voltage,application of battery
etc,need to be considered along with the coulomb counting method to make a more accurate
SOC calculation.
DRAWBACK
xk+1=AK xk+Bkuk+wk..................(1)
yk=Ckxk+Dkuk+vk................(2)
The input to the system is uk which is known or can be measured.The measurement could
result in errors,assumed to be noise, wk which cannot be measured and affects the state of the
system.
Both wk and vk are assumed to be mutually uncorrelated white Gaussian random processes with
zero mean and covariance matrices of known values. The equations are initialized by setting
the following at k=0.
To demonstarte the Kalman filter steps,we’ll develop and use a crude cell model,
• The coulomb counting was corrected every ten minutes(instead of after every
measurement like in state-of-the-art KF procedures) with the SOC value
predicted by the simplified KF algorithm. This reduced the computing
requirements that would be required for real-time SOC evaluation onboard a
vehicle.
