A battery system may consist of many batteries; each battery can have a normal operating mode and several faulty modes. This makes the fault status of a battery system very complex. To diagnose such a complex system, passive diagnosis is often insufficient. We may need to actively control the system to complete the diagnosis task. In this brief, we investigate the active diagnosis in the framework of discrete event systems. We model the system to be diagnosed by an automaton (finite state machine) with state outputs in which some events are controllable in the sense that they can be enforced, and some events are not. We say that the system is actively diagnosable if we can find a control under which the faults can be diagnosed. We derive a necessary and sufficient condition for a system to be actively diagnosable. Algorithms are devised for checking active diagnosability and finding controls that achieve it. The theoretical results are then applied to fault diagnosis of battery systems. We illustrate the approach using a simplified battery system consisting of four batteries. We find a control that diagnoses the faults based on the measurements of two temperature sensors.
