Abstract:
Systems and corresponding methods for monitoring of a state of charge or a state of health of a battery are described. For example, the battery monitoring system may include strain gauges to measure dimensions or changes in dimension of cells of the battery, and may determine states of charge of the cells based on dimensional changes over time, e.g., based on data from strain gauges. The dimensional changes may also be corrected for dimensional changes due to thermal strain. In addition, states of health of individual cells of the battery may be determined by comparing the dimensional changes of each of the cells over time. Further, the data from strain gauges may be received at various frequencies, e.g., based on an expected operational duration of the battery and/or based on a current state of charge or state of health.

Claim (Index 6):
The monitoring apparatus of  claim 5 , wherein the controller is further configured to at least:\n receive, from the at least one strain gauge, data indicating a second dimension of the at least one electrochemical cell at a second time; determine the second dimension of the at least one electrochemical cell based at least in part on the data received at the second time; and determine a change in dimension between the first dimension and the second dimension; and wherein the at least one of the state of charge or the state of health of the power source is further calculated based at least in part on the change in dimension.
