termined by RdC (when previously being discharged).

procedures for experimentally determining Qc axe spec-
ified for example in [l].Knowledge of the specified cur-
rent capacity, Qc, motivates the following simple SOC
estimation algorithm.
Define the integrated battery discharge current,
SOC(t) = 100 ( Qc
).

discharge and charge process, knowledge of the func-
tional dependence of these inefficiencies on the SOC
would allow the energy management system to identify
the most efficient range of SOC for battery operation.
If successful, this would result in more efficient overall
