Project Proposal-03

Battery Management System (BMS) for Electric Vehicle (Prototype)

Project Title
Prototype Battery Management System (BMS) for Small EV Pack — SOC Estimation, Basic
Balancing, and Protection.

Introduction
Electric vehicles (EVs) rely on rechargeable battery packs as their primary energy source. To
ensure safety, reliability, and extended battery life, a Battery Management System (BMS) is
essential.
This project focuses on designing and implementing a prototype BMS for a small Li-ion battery
pack. The system will monitor voltage, temperature, and current; provide over-voltage, under-
voltage, and over-temperature protection; and include cell balancing and State of Charge (SOC)
estimation features.

System Overview
The proposed BMS is designed for a small 3S–4S Li-ion or LiPo battery pack. It will continuously
monitor each cell’s voltage and temperature, balance cells using simple resistors, and estimate
the State of Charge (SOC) using basic Coulomb counting with OCV correction. The system will
automatically stop charging or discharging if unsafe conditions occur. Real-time data will be
shown on an LCD or through a serial interface. Both hardware testing and MATLAB/Simulink
simulation will be used to verify accuracy.

Process Flow Diagram


1. Measure cell voltages, temperature, and current.
2. Send data to the microcontroller for SOC estimation and protection logic.
3. Trigger cutoff or balancing actions if abnormal conditions are detected.
4. Display key parameters (voltage, SOC, faults) on LCD or serial monitor.

Future Implementation

 Upgrade to active cell balancing for better efficiency.


 Add wireless monitoring or IoT-based data logging.
 Extend design for higher-voltage EV battery packs.

. Expected Results (Short Version)

 A working BMS prototype for 3S–4S cells with protection and SOC display.
 MATLAB/Simulink simulation verifying algorithm accuracy.
 Improved understanding of BMS design and renewable energy storage systems.
