ESTIMATION SYSTEM, ESTIMATION METHOD, AND VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18159873 Titled 'ESTIMATION SYSTEM, ESTIMATION METHOD, AND VEHICLE'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes an estimation system that includes a power storage device and processors. The processors are responsible for controlling the charging of the power storage device and estimating its full charge capacity. When a certain condition is met, the processors will set a higher upper limit state of charge for the power storage device during the charging process. This upper limit state of charge is higher than the normal upper limit state of charge when the condition is not met.


Original Abstract Submitted

An estimation system includes a power storage device and one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to execute a charge process of controlling a charge device so as to charge the power storage device, and an estimation process of estimating a full charge capacity of the power storage device. The one or more processors are configured to execute the charge process with an upper limit state of charge of the power storage device set to a value that is more than a first upper limit state of charge when a predetermined condition is met, the first upper limit state of charge being the upper limit state of charge at the time when the predetermined condition is not met.
