Ultra-Wideband Wireless Simplifies EV Batteries

05 Dec 2024 | Abstracted from IEEE Spectrum

"Replacing these wiring harnesses with wireless systems could boost the amount of energy a battery pack can hold, and simplify assembly...NXP has developed the first ultra-wideband wireless battery management system for electric vehicles. It encodes data in low-energy wireless pulses across a 500-megahertz range for short-range, high-bandwidth communication...system can send data four times as fast, reaching up to 7.8 megabits per second."
