Real-Time EV Battery State Monitoring
Modern electric vehicles rely on precise battery state monitoring, where cell-level voltage, temperature, and impedance measurements must be tracked across hundreds of cells. These parameters can fluctuate rapidly during operation—voltage swings of 0.5V per cell during acceleration, temperature gradients of 10°C across pack sections, and impedance shifts that signal degradation well before capacity loss becomes apparent.
The fundamental challenge lies in maintaining accurate real-time state estimation while processing vast amounts of sensor data under dynamic operating conditions.
This page brings together solutions from recent research—including hybrid physics-ML prediction models, synchronized voltage-current measurement systems, non-destructive degradation assessment methods, and surface state-of-charge estimation algorithms. These and other approaches focus on early detection of cell anomalies while providing reliable state estimation for vehicle operation.
1. Control Device for Estimating Full Charge Capacity via Pre- and Post-Pumping Open Circuit Voltage Measurements
TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHA, 2025
A control device for monitoring battery degradation during power pumping, a technique used to recover undercharged batteries. The control device estimates the full charge capacity of the main battery during power pumping by measuring its open circuit voltage (OCV) just before and after the pumping. This allows accurate monitoring of battery degradation during pumping, unlike measuring OCV during pumping which is less accurate due to the auxiliary battery as a load. The OCV measurements are taken close to the pumping start and end times.
2. Push-Fit Conduit System Auxiliary Component with Sliding Sleeve and Insertable Releaser
XIAMEN TONGJIE TECHNOLOGY LTD, 2025
Auxiliary component for easily releasing conduits from joints in push-fit conduit systems. The component consists of a sleeve that slides over the joint and a releaser that inserts between the sleeve and the propeller inside the joint. The sleeve limits the sleeve position to outside the joint end and side wall. When the releaser is inserted, it pushes the propeller to extrude the gear ring inside, loosening the joint and allowing the conduit to be easily removed.
3. Power Supply System with Impedance-Based Current Sharing Control Mechanism
AES GLOBAL HOLDINGS PTE LTD, 2025
Equalizing current distribution among multiple power supply units (PSUs) in a system to prevent any single PSU from overloading. Each PSU senses the load voltage, calculates its local impedance, and compares it to a reference impedance. It then adjusts its output voltage based on the difference between the calculated and reference impedance values to equalize current sharing. This prevents a PSU with higher output voltage from dominating and allows each PSU to provide an equalized share of the total output current.

KIA CORP, HYUNDAI MOTOR CO, 2025
Vehicle battery management system that optimizes battery health in electric vehicles by dynamically controlling battery temperature and charge/discharge rates based on battery SOH. When the SOH is below a reference value, the system increases temperature to prevent further SOH loss, decreases temperature to prevent overheating, or reduces charge/discharge rates to mitigate degradation. This helps extend battery life by compensating for higher-than-normal SOH degradation in certain vehicle types or driving conditions. The system also provides user notifications to allow manual control if desired. The SOH reference values are determined through battery durability evaluations for each vehicle type.

Accurately estimating the state of health of a storage battery by considering the specific use conditions of the battery. The method involves identifying the current use state of the battery and then calculating the state of health separately for each identified use state.

VOLVO TRUCK CORP, 2025
Computationally efficient and accurate method for estimating battery states of electric vehicle energy storage systems using dual estimators. The dual estimators separately estimate battery state and parameter changes around nominal values. This allows tracking fast changes while reducing computation and storage compared to estimating total changes. The nominal values are also adaptively adjusted based on operational data to account for slow timescale variations. A lower frequency third estimator estimates the nominal values using downsampled dual estimator output. This reduces computation further by not using all historical data.

TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHA, 2025
Diagnosing battery degradation in assembled packs like those found in electric vehicles. The method involves controlled charging and discharging cycles with voltage monitoring. When a cell reaches the end voltage during charging or discharging, the remaining cells are charged or discharged to that cell's end voltage. This ensures all cells are cycled to the same level. This allows accurately estimating pack degradation based on voltage transitions of any cell, rather than over-discharging or over-charging specific cells.
