## Abstract

We proposed a new estimation algorithm of extended Kalman filter (EKF) based on improved Thevenin model; Experiments were carried out to verify the validity with seven 4Ah lithium cobalt acid batteries in series. The experimental results showed that when using the algorithm, the estimation error of SOC is in the scope of error allowed, and the requirement of online SOC estimation can be satisfied.
