Battery management systems depend on open circuit voltage (OCV) characterization for state of charge (SOC) estimation in real time. The traditional approach to OCV-SOC characterization involves collecting OCV-SOC data from sample battery cells and then fitting a polynomial model to this data. The parameters of these polynomial models are known as the OCV-parameters, or OCV-SOC parameters, in battery management systems and are used for real-time SOC estimation. Even though traditional OCV-SOC characterization approaches are able to abstract the OCV-SOC behavior of a battery in a few parameters, these parameters are only applicable in high precision computing systems. However, many practical battery applications do not have access to high-precision computing resources. The typical approach in a low-precision system is to round the OCV-parameters. This paper highlights the perils of rounding the OCV parameters and proposes an alternative OCV-SOC table. First, several existing OCV-SOC parameters are compared in terms of their expected system requirements and accuracy losses due to rounding. Then, a systematic optimization-based approach is introduced to create an OCV-SOC table that is robust to rounding. A formal performance evaluation metric is introduced to measure the robustness of the resulting OCV-SOC table. It is shown that the OCV-SOC table obtained through the proposed optimization approach outperforms the traditional parametric OCV-SOC models with respect to rounding.
