POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM

A power supply system for supplying an electrical load using a pulse discharge arrangement. The power supply system comprises a first electrical battery for supplying said electrical load, a control unit configured to control the first electrical battery for periodically switching between a discharge state of the first electrical battery and a rest state of the first electrical battery, said control unit being further configured to control a power source for supplying a first charging current to the first electrical battery during a rest period when the first electrical battery is in the rest state

PULSE DISCHARGE SYSTEM

A power supply system can include an electrical battery for supplying electrical load using pulse discharge; and a control unit to control the electrical battery to pulse discharge by periodically switching between a discharge state of the electrical battery, when the electrical battery is connected to the electrical load, and a rest state of the electrical battery when the electrical battery is disconnected from the electrical load. During the pulse discharge, the control unit can control a power source for supplying an injection current to the electrical battery during a rest period when the electrical battery is in the rest state. The control unit can further determine the voltage of the electrical battery during the rest state, and when the voltage does not meet a threshold value increase the duration of the rest period, until said threshold value is reached. Other systems, methods and apparatuses are described
