  • Battery state of function prediction with warm/cold cranking recognition and self-correction
    Patent number: 10288029
    Abstract: A system for a vehicle having an engine and a battery includes a memory and a controller. The memory has a first current expected to be provided by the battery for restarting the engine during a warm cranking event and a second current expected to be provided by the battery for restarting the engine during a cold cranking event. The controller to predict a first minimum voltage of the battery expected during the warm cranking event based on the first current and a second minimum voltage of the battery expected during the cold cranking event based on the second current.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 26, 2017
    Date of Patent: May 14, 2019
    Assignee: Lear Corporation
    Inventors: Jose Antonio Canals Esteve, Antoni Ferre Fabregas, David Gamez Alari
  • Battery state of function prediction with self-learning
    Patent number: 10150479
    Abstract: A system for a vehicle having an engine and a battery includes a memory and a controller. The memory has a predicted current expected to be provided by the battery for restarting the engine during a cranking event. The controller is configured to predict a minimum voltage of the battery expected during the cranking event based on the predicted current and to update the predicted current in the memory as a function of the predicted current and an actual current actually provided by the battery for restarting the engine during the cranking event.

  • METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR BATTERY STATE OF CHARGE CALCULATION
    Publication number: 20180292463
    Abstract: Method and system to improve the calculation of the State of Charge (SOC) of a battery with a model based on an adaptive parabolic function, including a feature to dynamically update the key parameters of the model, to compensate the behavior deviations of the battery from the ideal new battery model as it ages. The battery model has a parabolic region and a linear region.
