  • Publication number: 20240310451
    Abstract: A battery state detection device includes a sensor, communicator circuitry, and estimator circuitry. The sensor is configured to measure at least one of a voltage, a current, and a temperature of a rechargeable battery installed to a vehicle. The communicator circuitry is configured to obtain reference information relating to battery state detection from an external device. The estimator circuitry is configured to estimate a state of the rechargeable battery based on a measured value of the sensor. The estimator circuitry is configured to correct at least one of an estimation equation and a parameter based on the reference information.
