Abstract
A battery control module is provided for use with a battery and includes a voltage measuring module that measures battery voltage, a current measuring module that measures battery current, and a state of charge (SOC) module. The SOC module communicates with the current and voltage measuring modules, determines a reset voltage based on the battery current, compares the battery voltage and the reset voltage, and resets a battery SOC based on an outcome of the comparison.
