Abstract
- In this paper, a new control strategy, along with an innovative switching pattern, is proposed for the transfer of charge from one cell to another, whether they are adjacent or nonadjacent, or even to multiple cells simultaneously. Therefore, this strategy improves the efficiency of state of charge balancing, which is critical for lithium polymer (LiPo) batteries. Unlike in previous studies, all these functions are realized with a simple structure that employs standard DC–DC buck‐boost converters, without any additional complexities. By implementing the proposed control strategy, the effects of inaccuracies in the gain of current sensors, as well as multiplicative measurement noises, are reduced. The proposed method is applied to a set of five series LiPo cells, and a comprehensive investigation is conducted to assess both its balancing algorithm and operation. The simulation results illustrate the effective balancing performance and the achievement of the desired charge transfer through the proposed approach. An experimental setup, which includes five LiPo cells with a capacity of 1530 milliampere‐hours (mAh), is used to verify the proposed method. The outcomes demonstrate that the balancing of all cells is accurately performed under different initial conditions, within an acceptable time frame. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
