Abstract: A ruggedized engine control module (ECU) system includes a plugin-pod, a connector configured to connect the plugin-pod to a connector of an ECU, and signal processing circuitry. The ruggedized ECU system further includes a ruggedized enclosure for the connector and the signal processing circuitry. The ruggedized enclosure is configured to mount the plugin-pod to the ECU. The connection circuit includes signal processing circuitry configured to receive signals from at least one of the connectors, process the signals, and output the processed signals. The ruggedized ECU is configured to dissipate heat from the signal processing circuitry.

Abstract: A system includes an AC power module structured to provide alternating current (“AC”) electrical power; a power distribution wiring harness structured to receive the AC electrical power from the AC power module; a plurality of inductive coupling modules coupled to the power distribution wiring harness, and configured to transmit the AC electrical power to at least one load; and, a signal injection module structured to inject a communication signal on the power distribution wiring harness using signal modulation during a transient moment of operation corresponding to a low electrical noise operating range of electromagnetic interference generated by components of a vehicle.
