Publication number: 20100191490Abstract: For medical implants it is not only important to have a battery powering the implant with a long run-time, but to know exactly at any point in time how long the remaining run-time is. On the other hand the implant together with its battery shall be as user-friendly as possible requiring no or hardly any interaction with the device except for recharging of the battery. To better address these concerns, a method for determining the state of charge of a battery is suggested comprising the steps: charging the battery, discharging of the battery, predicting the state of charge of the battery using a recharge prediction unit, wherein the recharge prediction unit is disconnected from the battery during the discharging of the battery. The prediction of the state of charge of the battery during the discharge of the battery, i.e.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 3, 2008Publication date: July 29, 2010Applicant: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS ELECTRONICS N.V.Inventors: Hubert Cecile Francois Martens, Petrus Henricus Laurentius Notten

Publication number: 20100036627Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an apparatus, like a charger for determining the state-of-charge of a battery which has been charged or discharged and which has not reached its equilibrium state, the method comprising the steps of determining the EMF of the battery by extrapolation of the battery voltage sampled during relaxation after the charge or the discharge process, wherein the extrapolation is based on a model using only variables sampled during the relaxation process and deriving the state-of-charge from the EMF of the battery by using a predetermined relation between the EMF and the state-of-charge. This method is a voltage-prediction method without the need to store parameters beforehand. Instead, the voltage relaxation end value is determined based on the measured first part of a voltage relaxation curve and mathematical optimisation/fitting of a function to this measured part of the relaxation curve.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 25, 2007Publication date: February 11, 2010Applicant: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS ELECTRONICS N.V.Inventors: Hendrik Johannes Bergveld, Valer Pop, Petrus Henricus Laurentius Notten
