Tracking Li-Ion Batteries Using Fiber Optic Sensors
Through the inherent advantages of the advanced optical fiber sensor, it helps clarify the battery internal state and reaction mechanism, aiding in the establishment of more detailed models.
Researchers from Palo Alto Research Center (PARC, a Xerox Company) and LG Chem Power have now introduced an advanced approach: embedded fiber-optic (FO) sensors capable of internally monitoring battery cells. Applications of fiber optic sensors to battery monitoring have been increasing due to the growing need of enhanced battery management systems with accurate state estimations. This approach enhances state-of-charge (SOC) and state-of-health (SOH) estimations, potentially improving. Fiber optic (FO) sensors exhibit several key advantages over traditional electrical counterparts, which make them promising candidates to be integrated in BMS for measuring critical cell state-parameters.
