To address the limitations of conventional electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) testing, we propose an efficient rapid EIS testing system. This system utilizes an AC pulse excitation signal combined with an “intelligent fast fourier transform (IFFT) optimization algorithm” to achieve rapid “one-to-many” impedance data measurements. This significantly enhances the speed, flexibility, and practicality of EIS testing. Furthermore, the conventional model-fitting approach for EIS data often struggles to resolve the issue of overlapping impedance arcs within a limited frequency range. To address this, the present study employs the Regularization Distributed Relaxation Time (RDRT) method to process EIS data obtained under AC pulse conditions. This approach avoids the workload and analytical uncertainties associated with assuming equivalent circuit models. Finally, the practical utility of the proposed testing system and the RDRT impedance analysis method is demonstrated through the estimation of battery state of health (SOH). In summary, the method proposed in this study not only addresses the issues associated with conventional EIS data acquisition and analysis but also broadens the methodologies and application scope of EIS impedance testing. This opens up new possibilities for its application in fields such as lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) energy storage.
