Abstract
The implementation of a Smart Modular Battery Package (SMBP) can increase usable capacity and prolong life cycle of battery Li-Ion cells due to active balancing. Using Wi-Fi® for information exchange can reduce the need for cabling to a minimum. To ensure secure communication a Battery Management Protocol is proposed according to design standards. Validation is carried out by hardware implementation, where the master controller will be realized on a Zynq® driven evaluation board like Zedboard™ with an additional Wi-Fi® module. Further, slaves will be implemented on a TI Simplelink™ Wi-Fi® CC3220sf controller which provides wireless functionality at reasonable costs. Results show that Wi-Fi® can be a possible solution for the communication problem in a SMBP.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
