Method and apparatus for detecting abnormal power consumption of a battery in mobile devices
First Claim
1. A method for detecting abnormal power consumption of respective batteries in mobile devices, comprising:
- defining one or more operational states affecting power consumption of the batteries;
collecting time-series data on an amount of the power consumption and use time of each battery in each of the operational states;
calculating a power consumption rate, usage patterns, and an actual use time of the individual batteries based on the time-series data;
estimating an amount of an available time remaining on the individual batteries based on average power consumption rate of all of the batteries; and
comparing the estimated available time with the actual use time of the individual batteries to judge whether a power of the individual batteries is being consumed abnormally.

12. An apparatus for detecting abnormal power consumption of respective batteries in mobile devices, comprising:
-
a collector for collecting time-series data on an amount of a power consumption and use time of each battery in one or more operational states affecting the power consumption of the batteries; an analyzer for calculating a power consumption rate, usage patterns, and an actual use time of the individual batteries based on the time-series data; a planner for estimating an amount of available time remaining on the individual batteries on the basis of an average power consumption rate of all of the batteries, and for comparing the estimated available time with the actual use time of the individual batteries to judge whether a power of the individual batteries is being consumed abnormally; and an executor for reporting to a user the judgment result on whether the power of the battery is being consumed abnormally. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
