An unexpected and somewhat surprising observation is that two counter-cascaded systems, given the right conditions, can exhibit multivaluedness from one of the outputs to the other. The main result presented here is a necessary and sufficient condition for multivaluedness to be exhibited by counter-cascaded systems using the novel notions of immanence and its opposite, transcendence, introduced here. Subsequent corollaries provide further characterization of multivaluedness under specific conditions. As an application of our theoretical results, we demonstrate how these aid in the structural complexity reduction of complex networks.

The complex representation of real-valued instantaneous power may be written as the sum of two complex powers, one Hermitian and the other non-Hermitian, or complementary. A virtue of this representation is that it consists of a power triangle rotating around a fixed phasor, thus clarifying what should be meant by the power triangle. The in-phase and quadrature components of complementary power encode for active and non-active power. When instantaneous power is defined for a Thevenin equivalent circuit, these are time-varying real and reactive power components. These claims hold for sinusoidal voltage and current, and for non-sinusoidal voltage and current. Spectral representations of Hermitian, complementary, and instantaneous power show that, frequency-by-frequency, these powers behave exactly as they behave in the single frequency sinusoidal case. Simple hardware diagrams show how instantaneous active and non-active power may be extracted from metered voltage and current, even in certain non-sinusoidal cases.
We consider a detection problem where sensors experience noisy measurements and intermittent communication opportunities to a centralized fusion center (or cloud). The objective of the problem is to arrive at the correct estimate of event detection in the environment. The sensors may communicate locally with other sensors (local clusters) where they fuse their noisy sensor data to estimate the detection of an event locally. In addition, each sensor cluster can intermittently communicate to the cloud, where a centralized fusion center fuses estimates from all sensor clusters to make a final determination regarding the occurrence of the event across the deployment area. We refer to this hybrid communication scheme as a cloud-cluster architecture. Minimizing the expected loss function of networks where noisy sensors are intermittently connected to the cloud, as in our hybrid communication scheme, has not been investigated to our knowledge. We leverage recently improved concentration inequalities to arrive at an optimized decision rule for each cluster and we analyze the expected detection performance resulting from our hybrid scheme. Our analysis shows that clustering the sensors provides resilience to noise in the case of low communication probability with the cloud. For larger clusters, a steep improvement in detection performance is possible even for a low communication probability by using our cloud-cluster architecture.
This paper discusses a novel fault location approach using single ended measurement. The natural dissipation of the circuit parameters are considered for fault location. A relationship between the damped natural frequency of oscillation of the transmission line current and fault location is established in this paper. The hybrid dc circuit breaker (dcCB) interrupts the fault current and the line current attenuates under the absence of any driving voltage source. The line capacitance discharges into the fault at a specific frequency of oscillation and rate of attenuation. Utilizing this information, the fault location in a multi-terminal direct current (MTdc) network can be predicted. A three terminal radial model of a MTdc is used for performance evaluation of the proposed method using Power System Computer Aided Design (PSCAD)/Electromagnetic Transients including dc (EMTdc).
The linear-quadratic controller is one of the fundamental problems in control theory. The optimal solution is a linear controller that requires access to the state of the entire system at any given time. When considering a network system, this renders the optimal controller a centralized one. The interconnected nature of a network system often demands a distributed controller, where different components of the system are controlled based only on local information. Unlike the classical centralized case, obtaining the optimal distributed controller is usually an intractable problem. Thus, we adopt a graph neural network (GNN) as a parametrization of distributed controllers. GNNs are naturally local and have distributed architectures, making them well suited for learning nonlinear distributed controllers. By casting the linear-quadratic problem as a self-supervised learning problem, we are able to find the best GNN-based distributed controller. We also derive sufficient conditions for the resulting closed-loop system to be stable. We run extensive simulations to study the performance of GNN-based distributed controllers and showcase that they are a computationally efficient parametrization with scalability and transferability capabilities.
Controlling network systems has become a problem of paramount importance. Optimally controlling a network system with linear dynamics and minimizing a quadratic cost is a particular case of the well-studied linear-quadratic problem. When the specific topology of the network system is ignored, the optimal controller is readily available. However, this results in a emph{centralized} controller, facing limitations in terms of implementation and scalability. Finding the optimal emph{distributed} controller, on the other hand, is intractable in the general case. In this paper, we propose the use of graph neural networks (GNNs) to parametrize and design a distributed controller. GNNs exhibit many desirable properties, such as being naturally distributed and scalable. We cast the distributed linear-quadratic problem as a self-supervised learning problem, which is then used to train the GNN-based controllers. We also obtain sufficient conditions for the resulting closed-loop system to be input-state stable, and derive an upper bound on the trajectory deviation when the system is not accurately known. We run extensive simulations to study the performance of GNN-based distributed controllers and show that they are computationally efficient and scalable.
