Abstract

A battery state determination system is a battery state determination system including an in-vehicle device and a server device, the in-vehicle device includes an acquisition part acquires physical quantity data showing a physical quantity related to a state of a battery mounted in a vehicle, an observation part that observes a feature related to a state change of the battery on the basis of the physical quantity data at a plurality of different observation times, and a transmission part that transmits a plurality of pieces of feature data which expresses the feature observed each observation time to the server device, and the server device includes a reception part that receives the plurality of pieces of feature data transmitted from the in-vehicle device, and a diagnosis part that diagnoses a deterioration state of the battery on the basis of the plurality of pieces of feature data.

Claims (24)

1. A battery state determination system comprising:

an in-vehicle device; and

a server device,

wherein the in-vehicle device comprises:

an acquisition part configured to acquire physical quantity data showing a current and a voltage of a battery mounted in a vehicle;

an observation part that is configured to observe a first physical quantity data output from the acquisition part in a first observation time, that is configured to observe a second physical quantity data output from the acquisition part in a second observation time which is an observation time longer than the first observation time, that is configured to generate a first feature data expressing a first state of the battery based on the first physical quantity data observed in the first observation time and that is configured to generate a second feature data expressing a second state of the battery based on the second physical quantity data observed in the second observation time; and

a transmission part configured to transmit the first feature data and the second feature data generated at the observation part, and

wherein the server device comprises:

a reception part configured to receive the first feature data and the second feature data transmitted from the in-vehicle device; and

a diagnosis part configured to diagnose a deterioration state of the battery on the basis of the first feature data and the second feature data,

wherein the diagnosis part separately collects the first feature data and the second feature data for each of the first observation time and the second observation time, and diagnoses the deterioration state with reference to the first feature data, which is observed at a shorter observation time, among the collected first feature data and the second feature data, and

wherein the diagnosis part corrects a diagnostic result of the deterioration state using the second feature data for assistance.

2. The battery state determination system according to claim 1 , wherein the first feature data and the second feature data comprise information showing a temperature of the battery during the observation time, and

the diagnosis part classifies the first feature data and the second feature data into a predetermined temperature range on the basis of the temperature included in the first feature data and the second feature data and diagnoses the deterioration state for each of the temperature range.

3. A battery state determination method in a battery state determination system comprising an in-vehicle device and a server device, which is performed by a computer of the in-vehicle device, the method comprising:

acquiring physical quantity data showing a current and a voltage of a battery mounted in a vehicle;

observing first physical quantity data output in a first observation time based on the acquiring;

observing second physical quantity data output in a second observation time based on the acquiring, wherein the second observation time is longer than the first observation time;

generating first feature data expressing a first state of the battery based on the first physical quantity data observed in the first observation time, and second feature data expressing a second state of the battery based on the second physical quantity data observed in the second observation time; and

transmitting the first feature data and the second feature data,

wherein a second computer of the server device receives the first feature data and the second feature data transmitted from the in-vehicle device, and

diagnoses a deterioration state of the battery on the basis of the first feature data and the second feature data,

wherein the second computer of the server device separately collects the first feature data and the second feature data for each of the first observation time and the second observation time, and diagnoses the deterioration state with reference to the first feature data, which is observed at a shorter observation time, among the first feature data and the second feature data, and

wherein the second computer of the server device corrects a diagnostic result of the deterioration state using the second feature data for assistance.
