Abstract: A system includes a battery pack having a first battery module, a second battery module, and a busbar that couples the first and second battery modules; a battery management controller having a first wireless transceiver; and a battery monitor coupled to the first battery module and to the busbar. The battery monitor includes monitoring circuitry configured to receive a first indication of a parameter of the first battery module; a second wireless transceiver configured to provide the first indication to the battery management controller via a wireless connection to the first wireless transceiver; and a busbar voltage circuit configured to receive a second indication of a voltage across the busbar, and, responsive to the second indication being greater than a voltage threshold, provide a first signal to the second wireless transceiver to cause the second wireless transceiver to be in a higher-power state.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are described for a wireless battery system. An example apparatus includes at least one memory, instructions, and processor circuitry to at least one of instantiate or execute the instructions to identify a first battery node to transmit an uplink command during a first superframe interval, transmit a downlink command to the first battery node and a second battery node, the first battery node to switch in the first superframe interval from a receive state to a transmit state in response to the downlink command, the first battery node to transmit the uplink command in the transmit state, and receive the uplink command from the first battery node in the first superframe interval.
