1 Introduction

Estimating a battery’s State of Charge is a challenging task, and many different types of algorithms have been used to try to achieve this with the lowest accuracy error. Some of the most common algorithms used today include: voltage correlation, voltage + IR correlation, and coulomb counting. By comparing these generic gauging algorithms to TI’s Impedance Track algorithm shows why Impedance Track has the highest accuracy battery gauging.
