Abstract
A battery system for a vehicle includes: a battery assembly including at least one first battery module and at least one second battery module; a first relay being closed/opened between a first node and one of a first end of the first battery module and a first end of the second battery module being connected to a second end of the first battery module; a second relay being closed/opened between a second node and a second end of the second battery module; a converter converting a voltage between the nodes; a third relay being closed/opened between the converter and the first end of the first battery module; a fourth relay being closed/opened between the first end of the first battery module and a ground; and a battery manager controlling the relays based on a driving condition of the vehicle and energy storage amounts of the modules.
