Abstract
A method of estimating a deteriorated state of a battery mounted on a vehicle includes first to third steps. The first step is a step of obtaining a voltage value and a current value of the battery a plurality of times during a data acquisition period and storing the values in a memory. The second step is a step of subjecting the voltage value and the current value during the data acquisition period stored in the memory to Fourier transform and calculating an impedance component for each frequency band based on the voltage value and the current value subjected to Fourier transform. The third step is a step of estimating high-rate deterioration of the battery by comparing a ratio E between a medium-frequency impedance ZM and a low-frequency impedance ZLwith a reference value K.
