Abstract

See full text

Disclosed is an apparatus and method for estimating a SOC of a secondary battery containing a blended cathode material. The SOC estimating apparatus estimates a SOC of a secondary battery including a cathode having a blended cathode material containing a first cathode material and a second cathode material with different operating voltage ranges, an anode having an anode material, and a separator for separating the cathode from the anode, and the apparatus includes a sensor configured to measure a discharge inception voltage and a final discharge voltage when the secondary battery is discharged for a predetermined time, and a control unit configured to estimate SOC of the secondary battery corresponding to the measured discharge inception voltage and the measured final discharge voltage by using a predetermined relationship between the discharge inception voltage and the final discharge voltage and the SOC of the secondary battery.
