ABSTRACT:
A vehicle propulsion includes an alternating current (AC) traction drive, a first energy storage system electrically coupled to the traction drive through a direct current (DC) link, a second energy storage system electrically coupled to the traction drive such that the voltage output from the second energy storage system is decoupled from the DC link using a bi-directional boost converter, and a uni-directional current device that is poled to conduct current from the low voltage side of the boost converter to the high voltage side of the boost converter.
