IoB: Internet-of-batteries for electric Vehicles–Architectures, opportunities, and challenges

The concept of the Internet-of-Batteries (IoB) has recently emerged and offers great potential for the control and optimization of battery utilization in electric vehicles (EV). This concept, which combines aspects of the Internet-of-Things (IoT) with the latest advancements in battery technology and cloud computing, can provide a wealth of new information about battery health and performance. This information can be used to improve battery management in a number of ways, including continuous battery prognosis and improved battery and vehicle management. In this paper, we reviewed in detail the basic structure of IoB, based on many existing studies. We also explored the potential benefits of this new approach, such as continuous battery prognosis and improved battery and vehicle management. Implementing the IoB in EVs is not without challenges, as the IoB faces a number of challenges, including the security of battery data, cross-platform functionality, and the technical complexities of applying IoB on a large scale. However, the potential benefits of the IoB are significant and with continued research and development, it has the ability to revolutionize the EV industry. The purpose of this review paper is to provide a comprehensive overview of the IoB, discussing its potential benefits and challenges. The paper also provides a roadmap for the future development of IoB, highlighting the key areas that need to be addressed to fully realize the potential of this technology.
