Abstract
A system in a battery in which a plurality of elementary cells are connected between two first nodes. The system includes: a first device configured to apply an alternating signal to the first nodes; at least one second device connected to the second nodes of the cells; and at least one resonant element, an inductive element of which includes an inductance itself of the battery between the two nodes.

A system comprising:
- a battery in which a plurality of elementary cells are connected between two first nodes;
- a first device configured to apply an alternating signal to the first nodes;
- at least one second device connected to two second nodes of the plurality of cells;
- and
- at least one resonant assembly, of which an inductive element comprises an inductor belonging to the battery between the second nodes.
An electric battery comprising:
- a plurality of elementary cells connected between two first nodes;
- at least one device connected to two second nodes of the plurality of cells;
- and
- at least one resonant assembly, of which an inductive element comprises an inductor belonging to the battery between the second nodes.
A method for communicating in a battery in which a plurality of elementary cells are connected between two first nodes, between a first device connected to the first nodes and at least one second device connected to two second nodes of the plurality of cells, the method comprising:
- on a side of the first device, applying an alternating signal to the first node;
- and
- on a side of the second device, receiving the alternating signal via at least one resonant assembly, of which an inductive element comprises an inductor belonging to the battery between the second nodes, and modulating the alternating signal.
