Total Battery Management System for Aviation Batteries

This paper describes GEM Power's Total Battery Management System (TBMS), a new approach to the management of all battery types including aviation batteries, by means of treatment and analysis of a matrix of battery parameters (MoP). In addition to current and voltage, the MoP includes battery ohmic resistance (R_ohm), chemical resistance (R_ch), electrical double layer capacity (EDLC) and battery instantaneous open circuit voltage (E_i). The MoP is created by collecting the battery's stationary and transient voltage responses to specifically designed charging/depol pulses.
