Abstract

The invention provides an electric or hybrid vehicle battery pack voltage measurement. Systems and methods for measuring voltage of a battery pack for an electrified vehicle, such as an electric or hybrid vehicle, include measuring individual cell voltages and using the individual measurements to periodically update an adjustment or offset applied to the battery pack measurement to improve accuracy of the battery pack measurement. Individual cell voltage measurements may be periodically sampled and combined with the result compared to the pack voltage under predetermined operating conditions, such as when voltage changes or variation are small. A sliding window of voltage differences that satisfy one or more specified conditions, such as being within a range of a previously determined value, may be used to generate the adjustment or offset.

Description

technical field [0001] Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for improving the accuracy of battery pack voltage measurements of electrified vehicles, such as electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles. Background technique [0002] Electrified vehicles, such as electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles, include a battery pack (also known as a traction battery or traction battery pack) and an electric machine to propel the vehicle. Hybrid vehicles include an internal combustion engine that may be used to charge a battery pack and / or in combination with an electric machine to propel the vehicle. A traction battery pack includes a plurality of individual battery cells connected to each other to provide electrical power to the vehicle. A battery management system (BMS) in an electrified vehicle measures the voltage of the traction battery pack as well as the voltage of the individual battery cells. Battery pack voltage is often used in many aspects of vehicle ...
