CHARGE LEVEL MEASUREMENT
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- determining, with a processor associated with a medical device, a first uncertainty value associated with a first charge level estimate of a power source and a second uncertainty value associated with a second charge level estimate of the power source; and
adjusting, with the processor, the first charge level estimate based on at least the first and second uncertainty values to generate an adjusted charge level estimate.

Abstract
This disclosure describes techniques for estimating an amount of charge on a power source. A processor may determine an uncertainty value associated with a first charge level of a power source and an uncertainty value associated with a second charge level of the power source. Based on the uncertainties, the processor may adjust the first charge level to generate an adjusted charge level. The processor may further adjust the adjusted charge level based on the behavior of the power source.

33. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that cause one or more processors in a medical device to:
-
determine a first uncertainty value associated with a first charge level estimate of a power source and a second uncertainty value associated with a second charge level estimate of the power source; and adjust the first charge level estimate based on at least the first and second uncertainty values to generate an adjusted charge level estimate.

34. A medical device system comprising:
-
means for determining a first uncertainty value associated with a first charge level estimate of a power source and a second uncertainty value associated with a second charge level estimate of the power source; and means for adjusting the first charge level estimate based on at least the first and second uncertainty values to generate an adjusted charge level estimate, wherein at least one of the means for determining and the means for adjusting is implemented at least partially as hardware.
