Patent attributes
Various systems and methods for enhancing the performance and utilization of a battery system are described. In one method, a configuration schedule for a battery system is determined based on communications received from an external unit and the cells of the battery system are reconfigured according to the determined configuration schedule. In another method, a sequence of one or more pulses is used for energy transfer from or to at least one cell of the battery system, wherein at least one parameter of one of the sequence and the one or more pulses, is varied in a random manner. The above-noted pulse sequence may be utilized while the battery system is not supplying power to an external load.
