20100301831ZERO-VOLTAGE SWITCHING POWER CONVERTER - The zero-voltage converter is able to perform at extremely high power levels and bares significant benefits to all levels; system, inverter and circuitry level. Power losses are avoided by using a new developed resonant topology. EMI problems are reduced by power module integrated capacitors as well as smart selection of the terminal technology and under full utilization of the analog components and their potentials. The power module developed for this specific application is designed under a maxim of gaining highest power density as well as lowest stray inductances. High switching frequencies enable even special electro motors with extremely low leakage inductance to perform well. This is in particular beneficial for ultra high speed drives or motors with a high pole pair number. The mechanical concept of the inverter can specifically be adopted to the referring vehicle and to its available installation space. Thus, also (hybrid) electrical vehicles can be designed based on such highly innovative conception.12-02-2010

20110110311Exchange of Scheduling Strategies for Interference Coordination - A cell informs surrounding cells about an orthogonal resource allocation strategy of the informing cell so as to induce cooperative behavior among the cells. The informing cell also receives resource allocation strategies from the surrounding cells. Each cell allocates its orthogonal resources according to the mutually exchanged information. The result is to reduce interference in the system. For example, a BS informs other cells on which clusters it generates a small interference, e.g., close UEs concentrated into a particular cluster, and indicate that to its neighbors. Other cells would concentrate UEs which are on the edge to the indicating cell exactly in this cluster. This would mean an “overload invitation”, i.e. inviting the neighbors to produce overload on a particular cluster. If a cell sends an overload invitation on a sufficiently large cluster, this will automatically reduce the interference in the other clusters.05-12-2011
