METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR MODELING, SIMULATING, ESTIMATING AND CONTROLLING POWER CONSUMPTION IN BATTERY-OPERATED DEVICES

A computer-based processing system simulates and estimates power consumption (i.e., battery life) in a battery-operated based on a set of operating parameters which is intended to control operation of the battery-operated device in a first operating mode. In the event the estimated/projected battery...

Zusammenfassung:	A computer-based processing system simulates and estimates power consumption (i.e., battery life) in a battery-operated based on a set of operating parameters which is intended to control operation of the battery-operated device in a first operating mode. In the event the estimated/projected battery life fails to meet a predetermined desired battery life (i.e., operational life of the device), one or more operating parameters may be modified and power consumption is again calculated. Several iterations may occur. When a desired battery life is achieved, the battery-operated device is configured with a final set of operating parameters and, when deployed the device operates in accordance with the configured parameters.
