Good battery modeling is critical for energy management of electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles. Because of its simplicity and satisfactory performance, equivalent circuit models are widely used in this area. A frequently adopted equivalent circuit model is one that consists of an open-circuit voltage and a resistor in series with two sets of parallel resistor-capacitor combinations. This model performs well in describing battery transient behavior due to the dynamics of such physical phenomena as mass transport effects and double layer effects. Generic methods for obtaining the parameters of this model involve analyzing the battery voltage behavior under step changes of load current. The fact that the model has two time constants places a challenge on parameter identification.

The automotive industry is currently undergoing a significant transformation characterized by technological and commercial trends involving autonomous driving, connectivity, electrification, and shared service. Vehicles are becoming an integral part of a much broader ecosystem. In light of various new developments, the Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV) concept is gaining substantial attention and momentum. SDV emphasizes the central role of software in realizing and enhancing vehicle functions, enriching features, improving performance, adapting to surrounding environment and external conditions, customizing user experience, addressing changing customer needs, and enabling vehicles to dynamically evolve over their entire life cycle. The advancements in vehicle Electrical/Electronic (E/E) architecture and various key technologies serve as the technical foundation for the emergence of SDV.
