Abstract
A system and method for controlling charging of a low-voltage battery are provided. The method includes determining a state of charge of the low-voltage battery of a vehicle based on a voltage of the low-voltage battery and determining a state of charge of the low-voltage battery based on a magnitude of consumed power of a low-voltage direct current (DC) converter (LDC) providing charged power to the low-voltage battery during a period in which vehicle start-up is performed. A charged voltage of the low-voltage battery is then set based on a determination result of the state of charge of the low-voltage battery.
