However, the invention is not limited to this, and various standards can be applied as appropriate.
[0053] The battery management system 210 can control the power transmission performance of the power transmission device 230 based on the calculated optimal charging conditions. For example, the battery management system 210 can control the power transmission device 230 by sending a power control signal to it according to the optimal charging conditions. When the difference between the calculated optimal charging conditions and a preset reference value is greater than or equal to a threshold, the battery management system 210 can adjust the duty cycle and frequency of the power transmission device 230.
[0054] The power receiving device 220 can wirelessly receive power from the power transmitting device 230. In this case, the power receiving device 220 can wirelessly transmit the received power to the battery management system 210.
[0055] Furthermore, the power receiving device 220 can be electrically connected to the battery management system 210.

[0057] Furthermore, the power transmission performance of the power transmission device 230 used to calculate the optimal charging conditions in the battery management system 210 may include real-time power transmission efficiency and maximum available transmission power.
[0058] As described above, the battery system 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention can estimate factors (e.g., connection, resonance quality factor, etc.) that vary according to the charging environment, such as the distance and alignment between coils, the resonant frequency and temperature, by measuring the input and output voltage and current of the battery, the output voltage and current of the power receiving device 220 and the amount of power transmitted by the power transmitting device 230, and select and control the optimal point of wireless charging efficiency, charging speed and battery life.

[0060] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the power transmission device 300 may include a transmission circuit 310, a communication unit 320, and a controller 330.

For example, the controller 330 can adjust the duty cycle, frequency, etc. of the power transmitting device 300.
[0064] As described above, in the battery system according to the present invention, by integrating the wireless charging receiver into the battery management system and controlling the power transmission conditions of the wireless charging transmitter based on the optimal charging conditions calculated according to factors that change according to the battery's charging environment, charging can be performed to suit the battery state of each module.

[0066] Reference Figure 4a According to an embodiment of the present invention, the battery module 410 may include a coil 420, a battery management system (BMS) 430, and a rectifier (AC / DC) 440.
[0067] The coil is included in the power receiving device and can wirelessly receive power from the power transmitting device. In this case, the coil can receive power in the form of magnetic induction, or receive power by using resonance phenomena according to the resonant frequency.
[0068] A battery management system (BMS) can monitor the status of battery cell module components and control the power delivery device according to optimal charging conditions.

[0074] A rectifier (AC / DC) can rectify the power received from a power transmitting device from AC to DC.
[0075] Figure 5 A circuit diagram of a battery cell module according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.
[0076] refer to Figure 5 According to embodiments of the present invention, a battery cell module may include a resonant coil 502, a rectifier and filter 504, a cell module assembly (CMA) 506, and a battery management system (BMS) 510. Furthermore, the battery management system 510 may include a power supply unit 512, a wireless communication unit 514, a measurement unit 516, and an MCU (microcontroller) unit 518.
[0077] The resonant coil 502 may include an inductor and a capacitor, and may be included in a power receiving device to wirelessly receive power from a power transmitting device. Figure 5 The coil can receive power by using resonance phenomena based on the resonant frequency. However, the present invention is not limited, and the coil can receive power in the form of magnetic induction.
[0078] The rectifier and filter 504 can rectify the output voltage and output current of the power receiving unit and remove noise.
[0079] The battery cell module assembly 506 has a structure that combines multiple battery cells, and the voltage and current input to the battery cell module assembly can be measured by the battery management system 510 to estimate states such as maximum available charging current, real-time remaining capacity, and remaining battery life.
[0080] The battery management system 510 can monitor the battery's voltage, current, temperature, SOC, and other status parameters. Furthermore, the battery management system 510 can calculate the optimal charging conditions for the battery based on data related to the battery's measured status and the power transmission performance of the power transmission device.
[0081] The power supply unit 512 supplies power to the battery management system 510 to perform the functions of the battery management system 510. In addition to supplying power itself, the power supply unit 512 can also wirelessly receive power from a power receiving device integrated in the battery management system 510.
[0082] The wireless communication unit 514 can communicate wirelessly with both the power receiving device and the power transmitting device. For example, the wireless communication unit 514 can receive data related to the output voltage and output current, as well as data related to power transmission conditions (e.g., power transmission amount, maximum available transmission power, etc.) from the power receiving device.
[0083] The measurement unit 516 can measure the state of the battery cells. For example, the measurement unit 516 can be used as a sensor to measure the battery's voltage, current, temperature, SOC, etc. In addition, the measurement unit 516 can detect data related to the battery's state, such as the battery's maximum available charging current, real-time remaining battery capacity, and remaining battery life.

[0086] Figure 6 This is a flowchart illustrating a specific example of a battery management method according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0087] Reference Figure 6 First, when battery charging begins, the power transmitting unit (PTU) and the power receiving unit (PRU) align (S602). Then, it is checked whether wireless communication between the power transmitting unit and the power receiving unit is performed correctly (S604).
[0088] When it is detected that the wireless communication between the power transmitting unit and the power receiving unit is not being performed normally, the process returns to operation S602, and the power transmitting unit and the power receiving unit are re-aligned. When it is detected that the wireless communication between the power transmitting unit and the power receiving unit is being performed normally in operation S604, the output voltage and output current of the power receiving unit are measured (S606). In this case, the output voltage and output current of the power receiving unit can be measured by the battery management system.
[0089] Then, the input voltage, input current, and temperature of the battery cell are measured (S608). In this case, the input voltage, input current, and temperature of the battery cell can be measured by the battery management system. In operation S610, the power transmission conditions of the power transmission unit are received ( Figure 6 (Power transmission volume). In this case, the power transmission conditions of the power transmission unit can be wirelessly transmitted from the power transmission unit to the battery management system.
[0090] In operation S612, the maximum available charging current A, real-time remaining capacity B, and remaining battery life C of the battery are calculated. In this case, each parameter value can be calculated based on data about the battery state measured by the battery management system.
[0091] Furthermore, based on the power transmission conditions received from the power transmission unit, the real-time power transmission efficiency D and the maximum available transmission power E can be calculated. In this case, the output voltage and output current measured by the power receiving unit can be used.
[0092] In operation S616, the optimal charging point O is calculated based on at least one of the following criteria calculated in operations S612 and S614: maximum available current A, real-time remaining capacity B, remaining battery life C, real-time power transmission efficiency D, and maximum available transmission power E. Here, the optimal charging point O can vary based on at least one of the following criteria: wireless charging efficiency, wireless charging speed, and battery life.
[0093] In addition, such as Figure 6 As shown, the optimal charging point O can be calculated as X1*A + X2*B + X3*C + X4*D + X5*E. In this case, X1 to X5 are the weights applied to the variables respectively, and can be set by the user according to the environment affecting battery state and power delivery performance.
[0094] In operation S618, the optimal point cost function e is calculated as the difference between the calculated optimal charging point O and the ideal O, which serves as a reference value. In this case, the ideal O can be a theoretical value calculated based on the battery's charging environment, but is not limited to this, and can also be an experimental value calculated experimentally based on the environment.
[0095] When the optimal point cost function e is less than the control threshold (yes) in operation S620, the optimal charging point (0) calculated in real time is close to the reference value, and the power transmission conditions (e.g., duty cycle and frequency) of the power transmission unit remain in the current state.
[0096] On the other hand, when the optimal point cost function e is greater than or equal to the control threshold (NO) in operation S620, the power transmission conditions of the power transmission unit (e.g., duty cycle and frequency) are changed, and then the process returns to operations S606 to S610 and the measurement is performed.
[0097] As described above, the battery management method according to embodiments of the present invention can estimate factors (e.g., connection, resonance quality factor, etc.) that change according to the charging environment, such as the distance and alignment between coils, resonant frequency and temperature, by measuring the input and output voltage and current of the battery, the output voltage and current of the power receiving unit and the amount of power transmitted by the power transmitting unit, and can select and control the optimal point of wireless charging efficiency, charging speed and battery life.
[0098] Figure 7 This is a flowchart illustrating a battery management method according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0099] Reference Figure 7 First, power for supplying the battery is wirelessly transmitted from the power transmitting device to the power receiving device (S710). The battery management system (BMS) monitors the battery status (S720).
[0100] In this configuration, the battery management system can measure the battery cell's voltage, current, temperature, and state of charge (SOC). Furthermore, as data regarding battery status, it can detect the battery's maximum available charging current, real-time remaining battery capacity, and remaining battery life.
[0101] Furthermore, during S720 operation, the battery management system can measure the battery's input voltage and current, as well as the output voltage and current of the power receiving device, in real time. In this case, the output voltage and current can be wirelessly received from the power receiving device.
[0102] Next, in operation S730, the battery management system can receive data about power transmission conditions from the power transmission device. For example, power transmission conditions may include power transmission quantity, real-time transmission efficiency, and maximum available transmission power.
[0103] Then, the optimal charging conditions for the battery are calculated based on the data about the battery state measured in operation S720 and the data about the power transmission conditions received from the power transmission device in operation S730. In this case, the optimal charging conditions can be calculated based on at least one of the following criteria: wireless charging efficiency, wireless charging speed, and battery life. However, the invention is not limited to this, and various criteria can be applied as appropriate.
[0104] Furthermore, despite Figure 7 Although not shown in the diagram, the battery management method according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include adjusting the power transmission conditions of the power transmission device based on the optimal charging conditions of the battery calculated in operation S740. In this case, when the difference between the calculated optimal charging conditions and a preset reference value is greater than or equal to a threshold, the duty cycle and frequency of the power transmission device may be adjusted.
[0105] As described above, according to the battery management method of the present invention, by integrating the wireless charging receiver into the battery management system and controlling the power transmission conditions of the wireless charging transmitter based on the optimal charging conditions calculated according to factors that change according to the battery's charging environment, charging can be performed to suit the battery state of each module.

[0107] like Figure 8 As shown, the battery system 800 may include: a microcontroller (MCU) 810 that controls various processes and each configuration; a memory 820 that stores operating system programs and various programs (e.g., battery pack anomaly diagnostic programs or battery pack temperature estimation programs); an input / output interface 830 that provides input and output interfaces between battery cell modules and / or switching units (e.g., semiconductor switching devices); and a communication interface 840 that enables communication with external entities (e.g., a higher-level controller) via wired or wireless communication networks. Thus, the computer program according to the invention can be stored in the memory 820 and processed by the microcontroller 810, thereby enabling it to be implemented, for example, to execute...
