In order to determine the arithmetic mean value of the DC link current,
the mean values of the individual inverters are added together. For one
inverter, the calculation is as follows:

Only positive motor outputs are evaluated. When calculating the mean
motor output, one must make sure that the initial value and the final
value of the motor speed do not have different signs. An interpolation
point must therefore exist for every zero passage.
