Abstract

The lack of endurance is an important reason restricting further development of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Accurately estimating the state of charge (SOC) of the Li-Po battery can maximize the battery energy utilization and improve the endurance of UAVs. In this paper, the main current methods for estimating the SOC of vehicles were explored and discussed to unveil their advantages and disadvantages. In addition, the extended Kalman filter algorithm based on an equivalent circuit model was used to estimate SOC of power-type Li-Po batteries at different temperatures. The result showed that the closed-loop control method can effectively improve the battery life of small-sized electric UAVs.
