Summary:A fuzzy-controlled active state-of-charge controller (FC-ASCC) for
improving the charging behavior of a lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery is
proposed. The proposed FC-ASCC is designed to replace the general
constant-voltage charging mode by two kinds of modes: sense and charge.
A fuzzy-controlled algorithm is built with the predicted charger
performance to program the charging trajectory faster and to keep the
charge operation in a proposed safe-charge area (SCA). A modeling work
is conducted for analyzing and describing the Li-ion battery in charging
process. A three-dimensional Y-mesh diagram for describing the charging
trajectories of the proposed FC charger is simulated. A prototype of a
Li-ion battery charger with FC-ASCC is simulated and realized to assess
the predicted charging performance. Experiment shows that the charging
speed of the proposed FC charger compared with the general one increases
about 23% and the charger can safely work in the SCA
