Distributed battery management system and method of identification distribution using the same

1. A method for distributed battery management, the method comprising steps of:

receiving, by a battery management control module, a first identification distribution request from a first data acquisition module configured to acquire at least one parameter of one or more battery cells and to communicate with the battery management control module;

activating, by the battery management control module, the first data acquisition module for monitoring one or more battery cells;

sending, by the battery management control module, a first identification message corresponding to the first identification distribution request, to the first data acquisition module; and

determining, by the first data acquisition module, whether the first data acquisition module is activated;

sending, by the first data acquisition module, a second identification distribution request to the battery management control module if the first data acquisition module is determined to be not activated; and

receiving, by the first data acquisition module, the first identification message, and sending, by the first data acquisition module, an identification distribution reply and a second identification message to the battery management control module if the first data acquisition module is determined to be activated.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first and the second identification messages are identical.

3. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

counting for an amount of time;

and wherein the activating of the first data acquisition module occurs when the counted time exceeds a predetermined time.

4. The claim according to claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, by the battery management control module, a second identification message;

determining, by the battery management control module, whether the first identification message is identical to the second identification message; and

sending, by the battery management control module, a third identification message corresponding to the first identification distribution request, if the first identification message is determined to be not identical to the second identification message.

5. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

terminating, by the battery management control module, the identification distribution of the first data acquisition module after receiving the identification distribution reply from the first data acquisition module.

6. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

determining, by the battery management control module, whether a second data acquisition module is in an abnormal state; and

activating, by the battery management control module, the second data acquisition module if the second data acquisition module is determined to be in the abnormal state.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first identification message comprises identification assigned to the first data acquisition module.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one parameter is selected from voltages, electric currents, and temperatures.

9. A battery management device, comprising:

a battery management control module configured to:

receive a first identification request sent from a first data acquisition module communicatively coupled with the battery management control module;

send a first identification message corresponding to the first identification request; and

activate the first data acquisition module;

wherein the battery management control module and the first data acquisition module are configured to communicate with each other to identify the data acquisition module, and

the first acquisition module is configured to:

acquire at least one parameter of one or more battery cells;

determine whether the first data acquisition module is activated;

send a second identification distribution request to the battery management control module if the first data acquisition module is determined to be not activated; and

receive the first identification message and send an identification distribution reply and a second identification message to the battery management control module if the first data acquisition module is determined to be activated.

10. The device according to claim 9 , wherein the first and the second identification messages are identical.

11. The device according to claim 9 , wherein the battery management control module is further configured to count for an amount of time, and wherein the first data acquisition module is activated when the counted time exceeds a predetermined time.

12. The device according to claim 9 , wherein the battery management control module is further configured to:

receive a second identification message;

determine whether the first identification message and the second identification message are identical; and

send a third identification message corresponding to the first identification request if the first and the second identification messages are determined to be not identical.

13. The device according to claim 9 , further comprising a second data acquisition module, wherein the battery management control module is further configured to:

determine whether the second data acquisition module is in an abnormal state; and

activate the second data acquisition module if the second data acquisition module is determined to be in the abnormal state.

14. The device according to claim 9 , wherein the first identification message comprises identification assigned to the first data acquisition module.

15. The device according to claim 9 , wherein the at least one parameter is selected from voltages, electric currents, and temperatures of a plurality of battery cells.
