Abstract
Disclosed is a battery management method and apparatus that selects a function to be verified from functions of the battery management apparatus, transmits input information used to obtain an execution result information of the selected function to at least one counterpart battery management apparatus, receives, from the counterpart battery management apparatus, reference battery information that is generated by the counterpart battery management apparatus based on the input information, and determines whether an abnormality is present in the selected function based on the execution result information and the received reference battery information.
Claims26
A battery management method performed by a battery management apparatus, the method comprising:
- selecting a function to be verified from among plural functions of the battery management apparatus;
- transmitting input information used to obtain an execution result information of the selected function to at least one counterpart battery management apparatus;
- receiving, from the counterpart battery management apparatus, reference battery information that is generated by the counterpart battery management apparatus based on the input information;
- and
- determining whether an abnormality is present in the selected function based on the execution result information and the received reference battery information.
A battery management apparatus comprising:
- one or more processors configured to:
- select a function to be verified from plural functions of the battery management apparatus;
- transmit input information used to obtain execution result information of the selected function to at least one counterpart battery management apparatus;
- receive, from the counterpart battery management apparatus, reference battery information that is generated by the counterpart battery management apparatus based on the input information;
- and
- determine whether an abnormality is present in the selected function based on the execution result information and the received reference battery information.
A battery management system, comprising:
- a battery management apparatus;
- and
- at least one counterpart battery management apparatus configured to communicate with the battery management apparatus,
- wherein the battery management apparatus is configured to select a function to be verified from among plural functions of the battery management apparatus, transmit input information used to obtain execution result information of the selected function to at least one counterpart battery management apparatus, receive, from the counterpart battery management apparatus, reference battery information that is generated by the counterpart battery management apparatus based on the input information, and determine whether an abnormality is present in the selected function based on the execution result information and the received reference battery information.
A battery system, comprising:
- plural battery management apparatuses connected to batteries, respectively, wherein each of the battery management apparatuses is configured to:
- perform a first function on a first battery to obtain a first execution result;
- select at least one counterpart battery management apparatus, from among the plural battery management apparatuses, to perform the first function on the first battery to obtain a counterpart execution result;
- and
- determine whether the first execution result is abnormal based on the counterpart execution result.
