Abstract
Provided with a method of measuring battery capacity by impedance spectrum analysis, which is to measure a characteristic impedance spectrum of primary and secondary batteries and determine the battery capacity the method including the steps of: (1) measuring the characteristic impedance spectrum of a battery in a predetermined frequency region; (2) determining a parameter from the measured impedance spectrum; (3) monitoring in advance the correlation between the determined parameter and the battery capacity measured by a real-time discharge technique; and (4) determining the battery capacity from the characteristic impedance spectrum of a battery having an unknown capacity based on the monitored correlation.
