Abstract
A battery capacity measuring device that measures the battery capacity of a rechargeable battery includes an impedance measurement unit that measures the complex impedance of a rechargeable battery, which is a subject to measurement, based on application of measurement AC power, a parameter calculation unit that calculates a parameter that is a ratio of a difference between measured angular speeds of two complex impedances having different measured angular speeds in a diffusion region among a plurality of measured complex impedances to a difference between components of the two complex impedances, and a capacity calculation unit that calculates the capacity of the rechargeable battery based on information that is set in advance and indicates the relationship between the capacity of the rechargeable battery and the parameter and a parameter calculated by the parameter calculation unit.
