    Abstract: A method for managing a rechargeable battery. The method includes a computer processor identifying a rechargeable battery within a first device. The method further includes a computer processor identifying a battery maintenance policy associated with the rechargeable battery. The method further includes a computer processor determining a first set of models for implementing the identified battery maintenance policy on the identified rechargeable battery based on the identified battery maintenance policy and one or more environmental factors corresponding to the first device. The method further includes a computer processor installing the first set of models in the first device. The method further includes a computer processor performing an intervention action based, at least in part, on a current state of the first set of models and one or more current environmental factors corresponding to the first device.

    Abstract: The wireless charging system includes a base member for placing a to-be-charged device, a wireless power transmission module for wireless charging the to-be-charged device through a magnetic resonance unit, an impedance detection module, a power throttle module, an information reception module. Through the wireless charging system, firstly, the to-be-charged device is wireless charged on the base member. Secondly, when the to-be-charged device is not a desired object and reveals a higher impedance value, the impedance detection module would detects this and inhibits/throttles the wireless power transmission module. Thirdly, if the to-be-charged object is a desired one but attached with some metallic object such as a metallic back cover, the wireless charging system may continue wireless charging according to the impedance information from the wireless reception module.
