1 is a configuration diagram of a battery recognition apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, a battery recognition apparatus 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a detection unit 110, an extraction unit 120, a matching unit 130, and a determination unit 140. The battery recognition apparatus 100 obtains information on the battery 300 from a battery management system (BMS) 200 connected to the battery 300

First, the battery 300 may include a plurality of battery cells (not shown) connected in series and in parallel. The battery cell (not shown) may be a nickel-cadmium battery, a lead-acid battery, a nickel metal hydride battery (NiMH), a lithium ion battery, a lithium- a lithium polymer battery, or the like, which can be charged or discharged. The battery 300 may be referred to as a battery pack or a battery cell. Hereinafter, the battery 300 will be described with reference to a battery cell.

The battery management system 200 senses values of current, voltage, temperature and the like of the battery 300 and stores sensed information and controls charging or discharging of the battery 300 through communication with the outside, ). It also includes a battery stabilization circuit device and the like.

The battery recognition apparatus 100 receives information on the voltage, temperature, and the state of the battery 300 from the battery management system 200. When there is a change in the battery 300, It is possible to provide the battery management system 200 with the type of the battery 300 determined using the characteristic curve inherent to the battery 300. [

The detection unit 110 may detect the characteristic curve of the battery 300 using the battery 300 information provided from the battery management system 200. [ For example, information on the control state from the battery management system 200 and the voltage measured in the charging or discharging state of the battery 300 may be obtained by digital-analog conversion to obtain a voltage curve with respect to time, The charging or discharging characteristic curve of the battery 300 can be detected.

The extraction unit 120 extracts a linear section from the characteristic curve of the battery 300 detected. For example, most batteries have their own linear charging and discharging periods in the charging or discharging state. Accordingly, referring to FIG. 3, the first order equation can be obtained by obtaining the coordinates (T1, y1), (T3, y2), and (T5, y3) for the voltage measured with respect to time. The linear equation calculated when the coordinates are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is as shown in the following equation (1).

Figure 112015087621969-pat00001

Equation 1 can be used to obtain a linear equation for time (period A) in T1 and T3 and a linear equation for time period (period B) in T3 and T5. Here, if the two expressions are equal to each other, the A + B section is extracted as a linear section. If the equations are the same even after T5, the linear interval can be extended. Also, this linear section should be continuous. That is, even if the same first order equation is obtained in at least two time intervals that are not sequential but are disconnected, this is not a linear interval.

In addition, the information of the battery provided from the battery management system 200 may not exhibit accurate linearity due to the influence of noise or the like in the signal transmission process. In addition, there is a battery having a non-linear characteristic curve in a charged or discharged state, such as a lithium-polymer battery. Thus, the section having the coefficient of each characteristic curve within the first error range can be extracted as a linear section. For example, referring to FIG. 3, when the coefficient of the characteristic curve of the section A is compared with the coefficient of the characteristic curve of the section B, if the error of the coefficient is within the first error range, the A + B section may be a linear section. Further, the first error range can be set differently depending on the type of the battery. The first error range is set to a narrow range close to 0 in a discharge characteristic curve of a lithium-ion or lithium-iron phosphate which is a battery having a linear characteristic curve, and a wide range is set in a lithium- .

5 showing a discharge characteristic curve of a battery having a nonlinear characteristic curve, the battery having a nonlinear characteristic curve is set in advance for the coefficient of the characteristic curve F, (E section) can be extracted as a linear section. Likewise, the linear section should be continuous.

The matching unit 130 may compare the linear interval extracted by the extracting unit 120 with the linear interval data provided by the battery management system 200 or the battery unit type stored in advance. It is possible to compare and match the slope of the charging interval or the discharge ratio or the slope of the linear section and the slope of the linear section extracted by the extracting unit 120 in the second error range. Like the first error range, the second error range can reflect nonlinearity caused by noise or the like.

The second error range can be set differently depending on the battery type. For example, for a slope of a linear section of a lithium-ion battery or a lithium-iron phosphate battery which is a battery having a linear characteristic curve, a second error range is set to a narrow range close to 0, and a lithium- The gradient of the linear section of the battery can be set in a wide range.

In addition, the slope can be obtained through a differentiator circuit when an analog signal is input, and can also be obtained by calculation using coordinates.

The determination unit 140 determines the type of the battery 300 connected to the battery management system 200 by using the matching result in the matching unit 130. [ Thus, the battery management system 200 designed on the basis of a single battery can recognize the type of the battery without changing the design and function of the battery management system 200 even if the battery 300 is replaced in the future.

In addition, when the type of the battery obtained as the matching result in the charged state of the battery 300 is the same as the type of the battery obtained as a result of the matching in the discharged state, determination of the type of the battery can be determined. Also, the battery has its own linear section, but a plurality of battery types can be matched due to the influence of noise. In such a case, the battery type can be recognized as the battery type having the lowest error.

2 is a flowchart of a battery recognition method according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 2, a charging or discharging characteristic curve of the battery can be detected using the battery information provided from the battery management system in charging or discharging the battery (S101). If the coefficient of each section is within the first error range in the detected characteristic curve, it can be extracted as a linear section (S102). Here, the linear section can be extracted as a continuous section without being disconnected. The linear interval extracted in step S102 is matched with the data of the linear interval for each battery type previously stored (S103), and the battery type can be determined based on the matching result (S104). The matched data may be a charge ratio or a discharge ratio of the battery, and the second error range may be set differently according to the battery type in consideration of the noise and the nonlinear battery, and the matching may be performed. The determination of the type of the battery can be determined when the type of the battery obtained as the matching result in the charged state of the battery is the same as the type of the battery obtained as the matching result in the discharge state (S105). In addition, it is possible to judge the battery type when the error degree is the lowest.

4 is a graph showing a battery charging characteristic curve according to an embodiment of the present invention. As in the discharge characteristic curve of FIG. 3, the linear section can be extracted by comparing whether the characteristic curves of the sections C and D are the same or the characteristic curves are the same in FIG.
