Abstract
A method determines a potential of an anode and/or a potential of a cathode in a battery cell. The method measures a current flowing through the battery cell, determines a charge transfer resistance of the battery cell, ascertains a charge transfer resistance of the anode and a charge transfer resistance of the cathode, ascertains a depth of discharge, ascertains an anode residual voltage and a cathode residual voltage from the depth of discharge from an idle voltage, ascertains an anode excess potential from the charge transfer resistance of the anode and the current and ascertains a cathode excess potential from the charge transfer resistance of the cathode and the current. The method ascertains the potential of the anode from the anode residual voltage and the anode excess potential and ascertains the potential of the cathode from the cathode residual potential and the cathode excess potential.
