The battery diagnosis method includes calculating, by a battery management system (BMS), a plurality of direct current internal resistances (DCIRs) respectively with respect to a plurality of battery cells based on a plurality of cell voltages and a plurality of cell currents, deriving, by the BMS, an entire representative value of the plurality of DCIRs, calculating, by the BMS, a multi-parallel ideality factor based on a parallel connection number, calculating, by the BMS, a dispersion of the plurality of DCIRs based on the plurality of DCIRs and the entire representative values of the plurality of DCIRs, calculating, by the BMS, an upper limit threshold value of a normal range, and deriving, by the BMS, the normal range based on the upper limit threshold value, and diagnosing a state of a battery pack including the plurality of battery cells according to the normal range.

Battery diagnosis method and battery system applying the same

Discussed is a battery diagnosing apparatus that can include a resistance measuring unit configured to measure an internal resistance of each of a plurality of battery modules including one or more battery cells, and a control unit configured to receive resistance information about the internal resistance of each of the plurality of battery modules from the resistance measuring unit, calculate a first criterion resistance and an absolute deviation between the first criterion resistance and the internal resistance, convert the calculated absolute deviation into a resistance deviation for the plurality of battery modules based on the resistance information, set a first resistance section based on the calculated first criterion resistance and the calculated resistance deviation, select a part of the plurality of battery modules as a target module based on the resistance information, and calculate a second criterion resistance for the target module based on the resistance information.
