Abstract
An apparatus for diagnosing a state of a battery according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a charging and discharging assembly for charging or discharging a battery module; a measurer for measuring a current of the battery module at every predetermined period during a cycle in which the battery module is charged or discharged; and a controller for receiving a measurement value for the current of the battery module from the measuring unit, estimating a state of charge (SOC) of the battery module during the cycle based on the received measurement value, calculating a change rate of the estimated SOC, and determining whether a defect occurs in the battery module based on a comparison result between the calculated change rate of the SOC and a preset reference change rate.
