  • Publication number: 20230370007
    Abstract: Systems and methods for estimating input current are provided, particularly when input currents are applied to an electric motor of a motor system. An Electric Control Unit (ECU), according to one implementation, is configured to control the motor system. The ECU is configured to store computer logic having instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processing devices to obtain a duty cycle parameter at an output of the ECU. The duty cycle parameter, for example, relates to control actions enforced on one or more switches of a power electronics circuit of the motor system. Based on the duty cycle parameter, the instructions further cause the one or more processing devices to estimate an input current provided to the electric motor of the motor system. A more accurate input current estimation may thereby be used to better estimate torque.

  • Patent number: 11394375
    Abstract: A method for synchronized injection of impedance into high voltage (HV) transmission line is disclosed. The method includes generating, by a plurality of impedance injection units (IIUs) coupled to the HV transmission line, impedance injection waves that cumulatively form a pseudo-sinusoidal wave. The method further includes optimizing, by the plurality of IIUs, the pseudo-sinusoidal wave to represent a pure sinusoidal wave. The method further includes injecting, by the plurality of IIUs, the pseudo-sinusoidal wave, as impedance, into the HV transmission line. The plurality of IIUs form multiple connection configurations in sequence, each connection configuration comprising one IIU or multiple IIUs in series, parallel or combination thereof, coupled to the HV transmission line.
