  • Publication number: 20240031936
    Abstract: A system for 5G MICO mode operation of a vehicle during an ignition off mode includes a telematics unit and a telematics communication mode controller. The controller monitors energy consumption by the telematics unit and estimates a total energy consumption of the telematics unit through a time period. The controller further compares the total energy consumption to a first threshold energy consumption and a second threshold energy consumption and, when the total energy consumption is less than the first threshold energy consumption, operates the telematics unit in a first mode including unrestricted communication. The telematics communication mode controller, when the total energy consumption is between the first threshold energy consumption and the second threshold energy consumption, operates the telematics unit in a second MICO mode and, when the total energy consumption is greater than the second threshold energy consumption, deactivates communications by the telematics unit.

  • Publication number: 20190199096
    Abstract: Multi-terminal HV DC-DC converters are required to facilitate future HVDC infrastructure with the ability to interconnect and manage power flow between multiple HVDC networks. Existing topologies offer limited modularity and scalability, making them difficult to implement in the fast-growing HVDC industry. In this disclosure, a multi-terminal modular multilevel converter (MT-MMC) is proposed as the first truly modular multi-terminal HV DC-DC converter. The MT-MMC is made up of multiple subconverters that can be controlled individually with de-centralized controllers, allowing easy reconfiguration of the converter power circuit. The MT-MMC also realizes reductions in semiconductor effort and magnetic requirement when compared with conventional multi-terminal solutions. Case studies are conducted to demonstrate the versatility of the MT-MMC, and a comparative analysis is performed to highlight the advantages of the MT-MMC. Operation and performance of the MT-MMC are verified by simulation.
