In this paper, we consider the problem of optimally coordinating the response of a group of distributed energy resources (DERs) in distribution systems by solving the so-called optimal power flow (OPF) problem. The OPF problem is concerned with determining an optimal operating point, at which some cost function, e.g., generation cost or power losses, is minimized, and operational constraints are satisfied. To solve the OPF problem, we propose distributed algorithms that are able to operate over time-varying communication networks and have geometric convergence rate. We solve the second-order cone program (SOCP) relaxation of the OPF problem for radial distribution systems, which is formulated using the so-called DistFlow model. Theoretical results are further supported by the numerical simulations.

In this paper, we consider the problem of optimally coordinating the response of a group of distributed energy resources (DERs) so they collectively meet the electric power demanded by a collection of loads, while minimizing the total generation cost and respecting the DER capacity limits. This problem can be cast as a convex optimization problem, where the global objective is to minimize a sum of convex functions corresponding to individual DER generation cost, while satisfying (i) linear inequality constraints corresponding to the DER capacity limits and (ii) a linear equality constraint corresponding to the total power generated by the DERs being equal to the total power demand. We develop distributed algorithms to solve the DER coordination problem over time-varying communication networks with either bidirectional or unidirectional communication links. The proposed algorithms can be seen as distribute
Optimal power flow (OPF) is an important technique for power systems to achieve optimal operation while satisfying multiple constraints. The traditional OPF are mostly centralized methods which are executed in the centralized control center. This pap er introduces a totally Distributed DC Optimal Power Flow (DDCOPF) method for future power systems which have more and more distributed generators. The proposed method is based on the Distributed Economic Dispatch (DED) method and the Distributed State Estimation (DSE) method. In this proposed scheme, the DED method is used to achieve the optimal power dispatch with the lowest cost, and the DSE method provides power flow information of the power system to the proposed DDCOPF algorithm. In the proposed method, the Auto-Regressive (AR) model is used to predict the load variation so that the proposed algorithm can prevent overflow. In addition, a method called constraint algorithm is developed to correct the results of DED with the proposed correction algorithm and penalty term so that the constraints for the power system will not be violated. Different from existing research, the proposed method is completely distributed without need for any centralized facility.
This paper identifies a property of delay-robustness in distributed supervisory control of discrete-event systems (DES) with communication delays. In previous work a distributed supervisory control problem has been investigated on the assumption that inter-agent communications take place with negligible delay. From an applications viewpoint it is desirable to relax this constraint and identify communicating distributed controllers which are delay-robust, namely logically equivalent to their delay-free counterparts. For this we introduce inter-agent channels modeled as 2-state automata, compute the overall system behavior, and present an effective computational test for delay-robustness. From the test it typically results that the given delay-free distributed control is delay-robust with respect to certain communicated events, but not for all, thus distinguishing events which are not delay-critical from those that are. The approach is illustrated by a workcell model with three communicating agents.
Distributed optimization has attracted lots of attention in the operation of power systems in recent years, where a large area is decomposed into smaller control regions each solving a local optimization problem with periodic information exchange wit h neighboring regions. However, most distributed optimization methods are iterative and require synchronization of all regions at each iteration, which is hard to achieve without a centralized coordinator and might lead to under-utilization of computation resources due to the heterogeneity of the regions. To address such limitations of synchronous schemes, this paper investigates the applicability of asynchronous distributed optimization methods to power system optimization. Particularly, we focus on solving the AC Optimal Power Flow problem and propose an algorithmic framework based on the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) method that allows the regions to perform local updates with information received from a subset of but not all neighbors. Through experimental studies, we demonstrate that the convergence performance of the proposed asynchronous scheme is dependent on the communication delay of passing messages among the regions. Under mild communication delays, the proposed scheme can achieve comparable or even faster convergence compared with its synchronous counterpart, which can be used as a good alternative to centralized or synchronous distributed optimization approaches.
This paper considers the distributed sampled-data control problem of a group of mobile robots connected via distance-induced proximity networks. A dwell time is assumed in order to avoid chattering in the neighbor relations that may be caused by abru pt changes of positions when updating information from neighbors. Distributed sampled-data control laws are designed based on nearest neighbour rules, which in conjunction with continuous-time dynamics results in hybrid closed-loop systems. For uniformly and independently initial states, a sufficient condition is provided to guarantee synchronization for the system without leaders. In order to steer all robots to move with the desired orientation and speed, we then introduce a number of leaders into the system, and quantitatively establish the proportion of leaders needed to track either constant or time-varying signals. All these conditions depend only on the neighborhood radius, the maximum initial moving speed and the dwell time, without assuming a prior properties of the neighbor graphs as are used in most of the existing literature.
