ABSTRACT:
An intelligent power system includes one or more common power sources and one or more subsystem components interconnected with the common power sources. Each common power source includes an unregulated bus, a plurality of power source regulated buses, each regulated bus originating at a common power source and terminating at a respective one of k load subsystems, a power source, first, second, third and fourth groups of switches, a regulator having a plurality of outputs and an energy storage element. The regulator is configured to provide a time-shared mode of operation to provide power sequentially to one or more of the k load subsystems, such that the time intervals when the regulator is connected to any one of the k load subsystems do not overlap, and where the regulator is configured to switch in supplemental power from the energy storage, if necessary, to ensure that an average power delivered by the regulator does not exceed the average power consumed by all of the k load subsystems.
