Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed is a multi-BMS identifier allocation system. The multi-BMS identifier allocation system according to the present invention comprises a master BMS and N slave BMSs (N is an integer greater than or equal to 2) which are connected to a series communication network and a parallel communication network, wherein the master BMS comprises at least two first and second master communication channels which form a communication interface with the series communication network and selectively output a forward or backward enabling signal and allocates unique communication identifiers to the slave BMSs through the parallel communication network, and the first to Nth slave BMSs start enabling in response to the forward or backward enabling signal received through the series communication network, are allocated the identifiers from the master BMS through the parallel communication network, and output an enabling signal to an adjacent slave BMS along a transmission direction of the enabling signal.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A system for allocating an identifier to a multi-battery management system (BMS) that allocates a unique communication identifier to a multi-BMS of a battery pack, the system comprising a master BMS and N slave BMSs (N is an integer greater than or equal to 2) connected to a serial communication network and a parallel communication network, wherein the master BMS includes at least two first and second master communication channels that form a communication in…
