20100090651 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING STATE OF CHARGE OF A BATTERY - A method and apparatus for determining the state of charge (SOC) of a battery is discussed. The method involves measuring the terminal voltage across the battery and the current flowing through the battery at a plurality of different times and fitting a line equation with a slope and an intercept to the terminal voltage and current data. The open-circuit voltage (OCV) is calculated from the intercept of the linear equation and the SOC is determined from the OCV by reference to a lookup table. | 04-15-2010 |
