Abstract:
An electrified vehicle and method for estimating peak power of a battery system of the electrified vehicle are presented. In one exemplary implementation, the method includes receiving, at a controller of the electrified vehicle, measured current, voltage, and temperature of the battery system and determining, at the controller, operating parameters for the battery system based on the measured current, voltage, and temperature. An initial peak current at a start of a current prediction period for the battery system is determined, at the controller, based on the operating parameters, and an instantaneous peak current of the battery system is determined based on its initial peak current by performing voltage-limited extrapolation of resistances and open-circuit voltage (VLERO) of a battery model for the battery system. The battery system and an electric motor of the electrified vehicle are controlled, by the controller, based on the instantaneous peak current.

Abstract:
More accurate and robust battery state estimation (BSE) techniques for a battery system of an electrified vehicle include estimating a current bias or offset generated by a current sensor and then adjusting the measured current to compensate for the estimated current bias. The techniques obtain nominal parameters for a battery model of the battery system based on a measured temperature and an estimated open circuit voltage (OCV). The techniques use these nominal parameters and the corrected measured current to estimate the OCV, a capacity, and an impedance of the battery system. The techniques utilize the OCV to estimate a state of charge (SOC) of the battery system. The techniques also estimate a state of health (SOH) of the battery system based on its estimated capacity and impedance. The techniques then control the electrified vehicle based on the SOC and/or the SOH.

Abstract:
A method and a processor for implementing the method are disclosed for processing of an image. A first algorithm is selected to be used for processing information representing an area of interest in the image. A second algorithm is selected to be used for processing information representing an area of the image that is not in the area of interest. The first and second algorithms are applied to their respective portions of the information representing the image.
Abstract:
A portable scoreboard system comprising of a microcontroller running a software algorithm that keeps score of a sports game and officiates the game to ensure fair play according to the rules of the sport. The official rules of all the sports are stored in the device memory. The updating of the score is carried out with wireless remote control modules worn by the players and/or users. The score is only updated when the algorithm has confirmed no game rule violations. The real time score information is then displayed on the scoreboard panel plus appropriate audio sounds are played. Game related scores and user settings are stored into memory on a real time basis and can be retrieved externally for post-game analysis.
