MUMBAI, India, Feb. 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641008757 A) filed by Dr. S. Nageswari; Dr. S. Venkatesan; and Dr. K. Baskaran, Karaikudi, Tamil Nadu, on Jan. 28, for 'smart battery management system with power converter-based cell balancing for maximized battery utilization.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. S. Nageswari; Dr. S. Venkatesan; and Dr. K. Baskaran.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 13, under issue no. 07/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses a smart battery management system employing a power converter-based hybrid cell balancing technique for enhanced battery utilization. The system dynamically switches between passive and active balancing, using bidirectional DC-DC converters to efficiently redistribute energy among battery cells. An optimized state-of-charge estimation method using an Unscented Kalman Filter with Sunflower Optimization Algorithm-based noise covariance tuning significantly improves estimation accuracy. The system is implemented on an FPGA for high-speed real-time control and integrated with Industrial Internet of Things technologies for remote monitoring and predictive diagnostics. The invention enhances efficiency, safety, scalability, and battery lifespan for electric vehicle and energy storage applications."
