Abstract

The invention relates to a method of controlling a vehicle battery management system comprising a battery arranged in a vehicle, the battery being controlled by a battery control unit comprising a battery model describing a relation between a battery state and a time varying battery property. The method comprises, in the battery control unit: measuring at least one time varying battery sensor output of the battery; determining a battery state based on the measured battery sensor output; updating the battery model based on the determined battery state, thereby forming an updated battery model, receiving a second battery model; and combining the received second model with the existing battery model. The invention also relates to a battery management system and to a vehicle comprising such a battery management system.
