Abstract
The method for detecting defective electrodes in an electrode matrix comprises measurement of an electrochemical impedance spectrum for each of the electrodes. Modeling of the spectrum impedance relative to each electrode by means of an implicit non-integral frequency model is performed in the form of a parameter matrix. Principal components analysis of the matrix is performed to transform said parameter matrix into a final matrix containing decorrelated variables representing the parameter matrix in a new space. The distance between each electrode and a reference point is calculated. These calculated distances are compared with a preset threshold distance and the electrodes having a distance greater than the threshold distance are classified as being defective.
