Abstract:
Embodiments describe a battery system that includes a first battery module coupled to a regenerative braking system and a control module that controls operation of the battery system by: determining a predicted driving pattern over a prediction horizon using a driving pattern recognition model based in part on a battery current and a previous driving pattern; determining a predicted battery resistance of the first battery module over the prediction horizon using a recursive battery model based in part on the predicted driving pattern, the battery current, a present bus voltage, and a previous bus voltage; determining a target trajectory of a battery temperature of the first battery module over a control horizon using an objective function; and controlling magnitude and duration of electrical power supplied from the regenerative such that a predicted trajectory of the battery temperature is guided toward the target trajectory of the battery temperature during the control horizon.

Claim (Index 7):
The automotive battery module of  claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry of the battery control unit is configured to:\n determine a target trajectory of the temperature of the automotive battery module over a control horizon; determine battery parameter setpoints based at least in part on a thermal predictive model and the operational parameters measured by the one or more sensors, wherein the thermal predictive model is configured to describe a relationship between the battery parameter setpoints, the operational parameters measured by the one or more sensors, and a predicted trajectory of the temperature of the automotive battery module over a prediction horizon; and indicate the battery parameters setpoints to a vehicle control unit to enable the vehicle control unit to control electrical power output from the electrical generator in accordance with the battery parameter setpoints to facilitate guiding the predicted trajectory of the temperature toward the target trajectory, maintaining the predicted trajectory of the temperature below the first temperature threshold, or both over the control horizon.
