PREDICTIVE BATTERY MANAGEMENT FOR APPLICATIONS USING BATTERY ENERGY TO OVERCOME ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT VOLTAGE & CURRENT LIMITATIONS

Aspects of the disclosure include a power device having a first input configured to be coupled to a main power source, a second input configured to be coupled to a back-up power source, an output configured to be coupled to a load, the load being configured to perform a procedure, and at least one c...

Zusammenfassung:Aspects of the disclosure include a power device having a first input configured to be coupled to a main power source, a second input configured to be coupled to a back-up power source, an output configured to be coupled to a load, the load being configured to perform a procedure, and at least one controller configured to determine a required energy for the load to perform the procedure, estimate an amount of available energy predicted to be available to the power device during the procedure, the available energy being derived from at least the back-up power source, determine whether the amount of available energy predicted to be available is equal to or greater than the required energy, and prevent power from being provided at the output responsive to determining that the amount of available energy predicted to be available is less than the required energy.
