Abstract: A controller, and related method, to control switching elements of a plurality of voltage converters of a power system. The controller receives a signal representing an operating condition that indicates a contribution of each of the plurality of voltage converters to a ripple component of an input current or an input voltage of the power system. The controller ranks the plurality of voltage converters based on the contribution of each of the plurality of voltage converters to the ripple component. The controller calculates a switching phase offset for each switching element of the plurality of voltage converters by determining a switching order for each switching element of the plurality of voltage converters based on an alternating extremum contribution to the ripple component, and arranging control signals for each switching element of the plurality of voltage converters based on the switching order.

Abstract: A method for producing a shaft-hub connection having a secondary bearing seat that is on the shaft and that is axially at a distance from the shaft-hub connection includes determining a dimensional deviation relative to a final dimension of the bearing seat as a derivative action for a deformation of the bearing seat. A final machining of the bearing seat is performed with the dimensional deviation before assembly of the shaft-hub connection. Then, the shaft-hub connection is produced by a press-fit connection. The deformation of the shaft caused by the shaft-hub connection deforms the bearing seat to the final dimension, in that the deformation of the shaft compensates for the dimensional deviation of the bearing seat.

Abstract: When a given user equipment (UE) has a plurality K of cells currently serving it, in various embodiments there is an algorithm for triggering the UE to wirelessly send a cell measurement report. The algorithm utilizes a parameter whose value is dependent on the number K of cells currently in the UE's active set. The UE updates K anytime a new cell is added to, or a serving cell is removed from, the UE's active set. In various examples the parameter is an offset that operates such that for adding a new cell increasing values of K make it more difficult to satisfy the algorithm. One example has the offset's value computed using a slope value provided by the network and a default offset value; another has the offset's value computed using maximum and minimum allowable values of both K and the offset which are provided by the network.
