Abstract: A computer-implemented method and a battery state estimating system for estimating a battery state of an electrochemical battery, including: weighting the electrical impedance measurements of a provided series of electrical impedance measurements according to a weighting function that is dependent on the index(s) of the series or on the measurement frequency, resulting in at least a series of consecutive elements of the series of measurements, when point-to-point connected in the complex plane of the electrical impedance in a sequence according to the index of the series of measurements, forming at least one loop in the complex plane; calculating a measure of the size of the at least one loop in the complex plane; determining an estimation of a battery state of the electrochemical battery based on the calculated measure of the size of the at least one loop in the complex plane; and outputting the estimation of the battery state.

Abstract: A DC/DC converter is provided which can be produce easily and inexpensively with an alternating current component with which a superimposed direct current is reduced in an output voltage (ripple). A C+DC/DC converter includes an input and output, a series arm which is arranged between the input and the output and in which at least one first inductor and first capacitor are arranged, and a capacitor arranged in a first shunt arm at the output. A second shunt arm arranged parallel to the first shunt arm is equipped with a first switch and a second switch arranged in series and a second inductor such that the first connection of the inductor is connected to a point between the first inductor and the first capacitor and the second connection of the inductor is connected to a point between the first and the second switch.
