A Robust and Efficient State-of-Charge Estimation Methodology for Serial-Connected Battery Packs: Most Significant Cell Methodology

Safely and efficiently managing a battery pack consisting of hundreds to thousands of battery cells is a critical but challenging task due to commonly observed uncertainties, e.g. temperature, battery degradation and SOC estimation inaccuracy. This paper proposes a robust and efficient most signific...
