Stability in automotive power nets: Definitions, algorithms and experimental validation

In this paper the whole bandwidth of the term automotive power net stability in its today´s meaning is discussed. Definitions and algorithms for technical, optical and mechanical power net stability for automotive use are introduced. The proposed algorithms (proceedings) make a comparison and evaluation of different arrangements concerning the power supply quality possible in an effective and fast manner. In practical examples the use and the limits of the algorithms are shown for validation issues.
