OPTICAL COMMUNICATIONS IN A BATTERY PACK

In a particular embodiment, optical communications in a battery pack is disclosed that includes generating, by a module monitoring system of a battery management system, sensor data; encoding, by the module monitoring system, the sensor data into an optical signal; sending, by the module monitoring system, to a data aggregator, the sensor data as the optical signal; and decoding, by the data aggregator, the optical signal into the sensor data.
