Electronic battery sensor and method for determining an internal resistance of a battery
First Claim
1. An electronic battery sensor, comprising:
- at least one first detector to detect measured values, each of the measured values including simultaneous information concerning at least two corresponding measured variables including battery current and battery voltage, every two successive measured values representing a measuring pair;
a battery model for ascertaining an internal resistance of a battery;
at least one selector configured for selecting at least one measuring pair from a specified number of measuring pairs as a selection pair, and providing the selection pair to the battery model to ascertain the internal resistance, wherein the number of measuring pairs is greater than the number of selection pairs, wherein;
a ratio of a working frequency of at least one of the detector and the selector, to a processing frequency of the battery model corresponds to a ratio of the number of measuring pairs to the number of selection pairs.

Abstract
An electronic battery sensor and a method for determining an internal resistance of a battery, including at least one first detector for detecting measured values, and a battery model for ascertaining the internal resistance. Each measured value includes simultaneous information concerning at least two corresponding measured variables, in particular battery current and battery voltage, and every two successive measured values represents a measuring pair. The battery sensor includes at least one selector which is configured for selecting from a specified number of measuring pairs at least one measuring pair as a selection pair, and for providing the selection pair to the battery model in order to ascertain the internal resistance, the number of measuring pairs being greater than the number of selection pairs.
