<p>A current management system for a telecommunications power system includes a power bus, a communications bus, and a distribution module connected to the power bus and the communications bus. A plurality of loads are connected to the distribution module. A plurality of rectifier modules are connected to the power bus, the communications bus and to at least one alternating current source. Each of the rectifier modules includes a neuron that generates a rectifier current signal for the rectifier module. A master controller that is connected to the communications bus generates an average current signal from the rectifier current signals. The neurons generate a first rectifier control signal that slightly modifies current that is output by the rectifier modules based upon the average current signal and the rectifier current signal. A temperature sensor senses a temperature of each of the rectifier modules. The master controller generates an average temperature signal from the rectifier temperature signals. The neurons generate a second rectifier control signal that slightly modifies the current that is output by the rectifier modules using the average temperature signal and the rectifier temperature signal. In another current management system, the neurons communicate to establish a highest rectifier current. The neurons of each rectifier module adjust their rectifier voltages based on the highest rectifier current to approximate current balancing.</p> |
