Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure includes an apparatus for estimating the state of charge of a battery, comprising: a first coulomb counter (STCC) for sampling a first charge variation (ΔQ) on the battery in a time comprising a number of predetermined periods, by adding up a battery current Im in each of the predetermined periods; a compensator for calculating a second charge variation (ΔQ_comp) by compensating for the first charge variation (ΔQ); a second coulomb counter (CCE) for calculating a first predicted charge amount (Qe) by adding up the second charge variation (ΔQ_comp); and a state of charge estimator for estimating the state of charge of the battery on the basis of the first predicted charge amount (Qe). The technique increases the accuracy of a state of charge estimation by compensating for characteristics according to battery temperature and aging.
