Electric power system with centralized power distribution strategy and decentralized inverters

The invention relates to a motorized driveline with a centralized power distribution strategy and decentralized inverters. A method for distributing electric power to an electric motor in an electric powertrain system, where the electric motor is electrically connected to a shared power source, includes receiving an input signal via a supervisory controller. The input signals include a total torque request for the electric powertrain and a power limit for the power source. The method includes determining an open-loop torque command for each respective motor in response to the input signal. In response to the total torque request and the power supply limit, the controller also determines maximum and minimum power limits for the motor, where the maximum and minimum power limits include calibrated power retention for performing the predetermined torque operation. The method includes transmitting an open-loop torque command and a power limit to a respective motor control processor of each motor to control torque
