A rechargeable battery assembly includes a battery module with cell units connected in series between first terminal and second terminals. A current shaping assembly selectively couples to a current path through the battery module. A measurement subsystem performs measurements during operation and couples the current shaping assembly to the current path, and varies an electric current in the current path over a measurement period according to a switching sequence defined by a multi-frequency pseudo-random pulse sequence (PRPS). The PRPS represents frequency components at a predefined frequency resolution within a frequency range and defines switching between different current levels as a function of time. The measurement system obtains measurement data including cell-unit-specific voltage across each cell unit of the cell units and an indication of electric current in the current path. The system derives impedance of each cell unit and determines status indication for a battery module condition.
