IoT enabled Battery Monitoring System (BMS) for Industrial, Commercial and Home Applications

Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) supply power in the event of a failure, which is critical for stationary applications. Engineers, on the other hand, face challenges in sustaining peak efficiency batteries because maintenance must be done on a frequent basis. The most common solution is Battery Monitoring Systems (BMS), which are primarily designed for industrial applications and may make it difficult to efficiently interpret battery data patterns without regular monitoring. Furthermore, battery technology will be evaluated, accelerating the evolution of the BMS from a simple monitoring unit to a multi-functional integrated one. To address these challenges, the goal of this paper is to design a robust Battery Monitoring System that uses the Internet of Things (IoT) to make it smart and provide continuous service. This work contains IoT-enabled hardware that monitors current, voltage, temperature, state of charge, internal resistance, and remaining runtime of the battery. The performance of the proposed solution is rigorously verified in a real-time testbed installed at the office. In addition, this work includes a web application that allows customers to easily configure parameters and assures efficient battery monitoring. The results demonstrate precise measurement and functional state of the battery in a timely manner. The proposed method can be readily integrated into any existing industrial or commercial system to improve operational efficiency.
