Vehicle generator using battery charging profiles

A method for generator-based charging of a battery module, the method comprising:

• analyzing one or more sensor signals received from a sensor, the sensor signals corresponding to a condition of the battery module;
• calculating, by a controller based on the one or more sensor signals and a charging profile, a generator output for use in charging the battery module;
• and
• communicating a command signal to a generator, the command causing the generator to provide the generator output.

A controller for a generator to charge a battery module, the apparatus comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a non-transitory memory device storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to:
• receive a plurality of sensed signals associated with the battery module, the sensed signals comprising a voltage signal, a current signal, and a temperature signal;
• identify, based on the plurality of sensed signals and a configuration of the battery module, a first charging profile from a plurality of charging profiles stored in the non-transitory memory device;
• identify, based on the plurality of sensed signals, a generator output using on the first charging profile in near real-time;
• and
• communicate, to the generator, a command for the generator to output the identified generator output.
