“…Although wireless channel reception inside the complex metallic structure of a pack cannot be considered reliable without thorough testing in final hardware [59]. Furthermore, wireless technologies are not suitable for real-world systems, due to security concerns (possible intrusive external access [60]) and reliability concerns (external noise factors could degrade signals). These flaws are unacceptable in such a critical system.…”

“…PLC is of particular interest inside a vehicle battery pack, as it does not suffer from environmental challenges affecting wireless networks, for example signal attenuation due to objects blocking the signal path, or the need to be contained within a structure consisting of a material with poor signal penetration [16]. Utilizing only a physical wired connection removes the possibility of remote access to the network (unauthorized access poses a security risk), an area of concern for vehicle manufacturers, where the network could be carrying safety critical data [17].…”

Energy density of current generation battery packs is insufficient for next generation electric vehicles nor the electrification of the aerospace industry. Currently, approximately a third of energy density is lost due to ancillary demands (e.g., cooling and instrumentation) within a pack, relative to cell energy density. Smart cells, instrumented cells with sensors and circuitry, offer a means to monitor cell performance (e.g. temperature, voltage, current data). Uniquely here we demonstrate our 21700 cells instrumented with internal thermistor sensing arrays with custom miniature interface circuitry including data acquisition and communication components. This circuitry including a power line communication (PLC) system, enables sensor data to be collected and transmitted to a master controller without requiring additional wiring, and can achieve an excellent <0.005 % message error rate. The control and communication system includes the use of adaptive sampling algorithms (during identified periods of low demand, through temperature and current measurements) the cells transmit data at 0.2 Hz, increasing to 5 Hz (normal operation) or 10 Hz (beyond operating limits). This method was demonstrated via drive cycling and external heating to alert the master controller to abnormal operating conditions (rapidly, to avoid missing key features) while saving 65 % volume of data during a 90 minute experiment.

“…Dozens of companies begin to develop and design embedded PLCbased devices and smart chips (following the standard of IEEE 1901 protocol) [12]. Current PLC-based applications related to IoT (internet of things) have been associated with Smart Grid/Home/Meter [31][32][33], Underground power transmission [34], Intelligent Mining [35], in-vehicle communication [36], photovoltaic system [37], hybrid intelligence communication [38][39] and Industry 4.0 [40]. As a consequence, thoroughly analyzing IEEE 1901 PLC networks is valuable for practical IoT system construction.…”

“…The most possible reason is that as the packet arrival rate increases, the transmission attempt probability τ increases, the practical transmission interval is reduced, i.e., a specific successful transmission or dropping packet decreases may need shorter time duration (verified by Eqs. [36][37]. As a consequence, the time duration T busy is shortened (i.e., the total energy cost of transmitting one successful bit decreases).…”

Power-line communication (PLC) is a promising communication technology of constructing IoT (internet of things) systems, and it employs IEEE 1901 as its medium access control (MAC) protocol. Current studies about IEEE 1901 MAC performance analysis do not consider the influence of physical layer's retransmission protocols, i.e., ARQ (automatic repeat request) and HARQ-CC (hybrid ARQ with chase combining). Moreover, how 1901 protocol affect the energy consumption in PLC networks, and whether 1901 protocol has bound performance are also unsolved in these existing works. Focusing on the above problems, we put forward a cross-layered theoretical model to insightfully analyze 1901 protocol, where the impacts of physical layer's retransmission protocols (ARQ and HARQ-CC), channel fading modes and practical configurations (buffer size, finite traffic load, etc.) are comprehensively taken into consideration in the modeling process. On this basis, we derive the closed-form expressions of 1901 MAC metrics considering retransmission protocols. Furthermore, we construct an energy consumption model, and provide the bound performance analysis for 1901 protocol. Finally, we evaluate the performance of 1901 protocol under different retransmission protocols and system parameters, and verify the proposed crosslayered theoretical model.
