Abstract: A hyperspectral imager (HSI) includes a first thin film filter, the first thin film filter including a first quarter wave mirror, a second quarter wave mirror, and a low-refractive-index wedge between the first quarter wave mirror and the second quarter wave mirror. The low-refractive-index wedge has a height dimension such that a distance between the first quarter wave mirror and the second quarter wave mirror increases linearly along a length of the low-refractive-index wedge.

Abstract: Described is a system for adaptive calibration of a sensor of an inertial measurement unit. Following each sensor measurement, the system performs automatic calibration of a multi-axis sensor. A reliability of a current calibration is assessed. If the current calibration is reliable, then bias and scale factor values are updated according to the most recent sensor measurement, resulting in updated bias and scale factor values. If the current calibration is not reliable, then previous bias and scale factor values are used. The system causes automatic calibration of the multi-axis sensor using either the updated or previous bias and scale factor values.

Abstract: A method for dynamic characterization of an electrochemical system (such as a lithium-ion battery) is provided, comprising exciting an electrochemical system with a plurality of double-pulse sequences, each comprising a constant-current discharge pulse, a constant-current charge pulse having the same pulse width and pulse amplitude, and a zero-current period between the pulses; and calculating an impulse response, using a recursive or matrix-based method, to dynamically characterize the electrochemical system. A constant state-of-charge is maintained in the electrochemical system. Therefore the signal-to-noise ratio is high due to the repetition of the driving sequence. This method may be employed for on-line determination of the impedance spectrum of an electrochemical system, since the cycling profile can be easily integrated into charge/discharge profiles. Batteries (and other devices) can be diagnosed at high speed and with high accuracy. The double-pulse sequence is robust for fairly noisy systems.

Abstract: Some variations provide a method for real-time estimation of state of charge and state of power of a battery, comprising: (a) cycling a battery with a driving profile; (b) utilizing a recursive algorithm that relates battery terminal voltage to battery current, wherein the algorithm includes open-circuit voltage and a finite-impulse-response filter to dynamically model kinetic voltage; measuring the battery terminal voltage and the battery current at least at a first time and a second time during cycling; calculating battery open-circuit voltage and finite-impulse-response filter parameters; calculating battery state of charge based on the open-circuit voltage; and calculating battery state of power based on the open-circuit voltage and the finite-impulse-response filter parameters. An extended Kalman filtering technique is incorporated for real-time updating of FIR model parameters. Only a single FIR filter is necessary, making these methods applicable for battery-powered systems with limited computing and storage capabilities.

Abstract: The internal temperature of an electrochemical device may be probed without a thermocouple, infrared detector, or other auxiliary device to measure temperature. Some methods include exciting an electrochemical device with a driving profile; acquiring voltage and current data from the electrochemical device, in response to the driving profile; calculating an impulse response from the current and voltage data; calculating an impedance spectrum of the electrochemical device from the impulse response; calculating a state-of-charge of the electrochemical device; and then estimating internal temperature of the electrochemical device based on a temperature-impedance-state-of-charge relationship. The electrochemical device may be a battery, fuel cell, electrolytic cell, or capacitor, for example. The procedure is useful for on-line applications which benefit from real-time temperature sensing capabilities during operations. These methods may be readily implemented as part of a device management and safety system.

Abstract: The disclosed battery system comprises a three-electrode metal-ion battery configured with voltage meters connected between anode and cathode, between anode and a reference electrode, and between cathode and the reference electrode; a current source connecting the anode and cathode; and a programmable computer. The system is configured to control the current source to drive the battery with a current cycling profile, and to measure current signals between anode and cathode, and voltage signals derived from the voltage meters. An impulse response is then calculated for each of the anode and cathode, to dynamically estimate open-circuit potential and impedance of each of the anode and cathode. Battery aging, battery capacity fading, and other diagnostics are provided in real time. This invention can characterize each individual electrode of a battery, even when the battery is cycling away from equilibrium states, which is important for electric vehicles.

Abstract: Described is a system for estimating a trajectory of a borehole. The system processes signals of sensor streams obtained from an inertial sensor system. Using the set of processed signals, the system determines whether a drill is in a survey mode state or a continuous mode state, and a measured depth of the borehole is determined. A set of survey mode positioning algorithms is applied when the drill is stationary. A set of continuous mode navigation algorithms is applied when the drill is non-stationary. Using at least one Kalman filter, results of the set of survey mode positioning algorithms and the set of continuous mode navigation algorithms are combined. An estimate of a borehole trajectory and corresponding ellipse of uncertainty (EOU) is generated using the combined results.
