Portable defibrillators Today portable defibrillators are considered as sophisticated devices by FDA (Food and Drug Administration). As a trend towards the widespread deployment of portable defibrillators in the hands of non-medical or non-technical personnel increases, there exists a need for a simple procedure to ensure that it will operate properly when needed.
Portable defibrillators According to the FDA the major cause of defibrillator failure was improper care of the rechargeable battery . The effective operation of a portable defibrillator depends critically on the condition of the battery which are defined by State-of-Charge and State-of-Health.
Chemistry of Li ion batteries Reactions that occur at Electrodes Positive LiMO2 → Li 1-xMO2 + x Li + + xe Negative C + x Li + +xe → Li x C Overall LiMO2 + C → Li x C + Li 1-x MO2
Features of Li-ion batteries • Higher Energy density • Higher voltage • Long operating time • Compact
Definitions SOC denotes the remaining pulses in a battery pack in one discharge cycle SOH represents the remaining number of cycles (charge-discharge) that can be obtained from a battery pack in its entire life. When the battery pack is new it is said to have 100% SOH. As the battery ages SOH eventually decreases.
Battery Interrogation Techniques Efficient battery interrogation techniques are required for determining the state-of-charge (SOC) of a battery. The three basic methods are: 1) Coulomb counting 2) Voltage delay and 3) Impedance method

Introduction to Fuzzy Logic In fuzzy logic, a quantity may be a member of a set to some degree or not be a member of a set to some degree. The boundaries of the set are fuzzy rather than crisp. A fuzzy system is a rule-based mapping of inputs to outputs for a system.
Two approaches in Fuzzy Logic • Mamdani Approach: Uses membership functions for both input and output variables • Sugeno Approach: Output membership functions are “singletons” (zero order) or polynomials (first order).
Example: Two input, two rule Fuzzy Model n1 Rule1 m1 F1 S1 m2 Rule2 F2 n2 S2
Li-ion battery pack • This Li ion battery pack consists of 12 cells connected in series parallel (4s3p configuration) • Effective voltage of the battery pack is 16.8 volts(4.2 volts per cell)
Chargeprofile The profile that we have adopted is A constant current charging of 2.5 A till the battery voltage is 16.6172 v A constant voltage charging of 16.6 v till the charge current drops below 100mA
Discharge profile The profile suggested by Medtronic/ Physio Control was Continuous discharge of 1.4 A and a discharge of 10 A for every 5 minutes for a period of 5 s
Dischargeprofile Load current profile Voltage recovery profile
Apparatus • For discharge -- Electronic load 6063B from Agilent Technologies • For the impedance and the voltage recovery measurements--Solartron 1280B,which is Potentiostat /Galvanostat /FRA • For charge --Centronix BMS2000, The Battery Management System • For different temperatures Tenney Environmental oven
Software • To control the Electronic Load the software is HP VEE • To view and plot the impedance data its Zview and Zplot respectively • To view and plot the voltage recovery profiles data its Corr view and Corr ware
Test process • Constant current discharge at 1.4A for 5 minutes, monitoring the voltage of the battery pack • Constant current discharge at 10 A for 5 seconds, monitoring the voltage of the battery pack • Repeat this process for a total of 1100 seconds which includes three 10 A discharges • EIS (Electro chemical Impedance spectroscopy) measurement over frequency range of 1Hz-1KHz • Repeat above four steps until end of discharge is reached (2.5V/cell)

Analysis • Minimum voltage curves • Difference voltage curves
Minimum voltage curves • The locus of the minimum voltages of every pulse in one cycle forms one curve corresponding to Cxx in the graph
Minimum voltage curves • The locus of the minimum voltages of every pulse in one cycle forms one curve corresponding to Cxx in the graph • The above means the set of all As in figure shown
Difference voltage curves • The locus of the difference between the maximum and minimum voltages of every pulse in a cycle forms a curve Cxx in the figure.
Difference voltage curves • Voltage Difference=B-A • The locus of the difference between the maximum and minimum voltages of every pulse (B-A) in a cycle forms a curve Cxx in the figure.
FUZZY LOGIC MODELING • Two models • To predict SOC –Remaining pulses (implemented) • To predict SOH –Cycle number (theoretical model)
