A method for using an electrochemical energy storage device within a specifiable usage plan time period so as to optimize the service life is provided. The calendar aging constitutes a variable which influences the service life of the energy storage device and which is expressed in the form of a nonlinear function based on the fill state and the temperature of the energy storage device, the temperature being influencable by at least one charging and/or discharging process.

Method and device for the service life-optimized usage of an electrochemical energy store

A method and a device for using an electrochemical energy store so as to optimize the service life is provided. The cyclical aging of the energy store is expressed in the form of a nonlinear function based on the temperature which can be influenced by a charging and/or discharging process of the energy store and the energy throughput. The nonlinear function is linearly approximated in order to determine the cyclical aging in each interval which can be specified for subdividing a specifiable usage planning period and is used to calculate a service life-optimizing plan for using the energy store.

Provided is a method for charging or discharging an electrochemical energy store, the ageing behavior of which energy store is modelled by describing its depth of discharge at which a depth of discharge value is associated with each time period between two adjacent local maxima and minima in a time-dependent state of charge profile, which depth of discharge value corresponds to the charging or discharging stroke between the state of charge values of the two adjacent local maxima and minima.

A method and device are provided for leakage detection and leakage location in an area of a supply network (e.g. water supply, gas supply or district heating network), wherein measurement values of sensors of the supply network are statistically analyzed for the presence of leakages using robust regression methods. The false alarm rate (type 2 error) may be reduced or minimized.

An embodiment of the present invention discloses a method for the computer-aided determination of the dependencies of a plurality of modules of a technical system, especially of a software system. Every module of the system has a known, first consumption of resources. The first consumption of resources of at least one of the modules is modified according to a predetermined criterion, thereby obtaining a modified system. The modified system is executed. A second consumption of resources is measured for every module of the modified system, the consumption resulting from the modification of the first consumption of resources of the at least one module. An analysis of the second consumption of resources of a respective module and the predetermined criterion is used to determine whether there is a dependency between the respective module and the at least one module that is characterized by the modified consumption of resources.

In a method for estimating the position of a subscriber station of a radio communication system, a receiver station receives reports from the subscriber station, said reports containing information relating to the signal strength of a receiving signal of at least one transmitting station in the locality of the subscriber station. The reports are stored in a memory of a network device of the radio communication system and a position determining unit takes into account at least two reports stored prior to the request for position estimation, in order to estimate the position of the subscriber station.

A fast and simple method evaluates the capacity of OFDM-based radio networks using adaptive modulation and coding. From a mapping of SINR values to achievable data throughput, constant coefficients defining a linear function for the required channel activity of a single user are determined. Subsequently, linear equations for total uplink and downlink channel activity are obtained which allow fast numerical solutions.
