Vehicle control system and method

A method and system include determining a resonant frequency of a vehicle system operably coupled with an external power source that provides voltage and current to the vehicle system. A first filter extracts a phase or a frequency component from the voltage provided by the external power source to generate a stabilizing voltage component. A second filter extracts a phase or a frequency component from the current provided by the external power source to generate a stabilizing current component. The stabilizing voltage component is out of phase with the stabilizing current component. A control input of a converter device of the vehicle system is determined based on the stabilizing voltage component, the stabilizing current component, and the resonant frequency. The stabilizing voltage component, the stabilizing current component, and the control input are communicated with the converter device to change the resonant frequency of the vehicle system.

Three-rail power supply system
12496935 · 2025-12-16 · ·

A three-rail power supply system includes a power supply having positive, negative, and neutral terminals, a rail system having a power supply end and a termination end, and an asymmetric resistor network. The rail system includes a positive rail, a negative rail, and a ground rail coupled to the positive terminal, the negative terminal, and the neutral terminal, respectively. The negative rail is disposed parallel to the positive rail. The ground rail is disposed in parallel to, and between, the positive rail and the negative rail, and is electrically grounded at a plurality of intervals between the power supply end and termination end. The asymmetric resistor network includes two pairs of resistors asymmetrically coupled to the rail system at the power supply end and termination end, and is configured to limit a fault current through a faulty connection in response the positive, negative, and/or ground rails experiencing the faulty connection.
