In one embodiment, a method is provided for providing power to a radio-frequency (RF) component capable of operating under multiple communication standards, wherein each standard has a respective operating frequency. The method includes: receiving a communication standard signal indicative of which of the multiple communication standards the RF component is currently operating under; selecting a frequency for a power converter system in response to the communication standard signal, wherein the selected frequency is higher than a baseband frequency of the current communication standard for the RF component; generating an oscillation signal having the selected frequency; and operating the power converter system with the oscillation signal having the selected frequency to provide power to the RF component, wherein the operation of the power converter system causes minimal interference with the RF component operating under the current communication standard.

Dynamic selection of oscillation signal frequency for power converter

A system and method for providing grid connected utility pole distributed solar power generation is disclosed. The system includes a utility pole, an inverter and one or more solar panels. Each of the one or more solar panels is mounted on the utility pole. The method includes receiving solar energy at the one or more solar panels. The one or more solar panels convert the solar energy to direct current (DC) electrical energy. Further, the method includes transmitting the DC electrical energy to the inverter, which is mounted on the utility pole. The inverter can be integrated with one or more solar panels to form an alternating current photovoltaic (AC PV) module. Furthermore, the method includes converting the DC electrical energy to alternating current (AC) electrical energy by the inverter and transmitting the AC electrical energy to a grid for power distribution.
