| Abstract |
This article presents a new method allowing data exchanges between a Battery Management System (BMS) and the application’s Energy Management System (EMS). The proposed solution is based on the Power Line Communication (PLC) technology and harnesses the versatility of the well-known Controller Area Network (CAN) protocol. This new PLC-CAN
communication system is depicted in the context of the management of a distributed battery pack composed of several batteries connected in a star topology. Limits of the system are exposed, arising from the trade-off between the carrier frequency and the length of the power cables. A theoretical approach through simulation is proposed and shows the feasibility of the PLC-CAN system. Measurements realized on an experimental setup confirm the validity of this new
physical medium for the CAN protocol. |
