Distributed Nonlinear Robust Control for Power Flow in Islanded Microgrids

In this paper, a robust local controller has been designed to balance the power for distributed energy resources (DERs) in an islanded microgrid. Three different DER types are considered in this study; photovoltaic systems, battery energy storage systems, and synchronous generators. Since DER dynamics are nonlinear and uncertain, which may destabilize the power system or decrease the performanc...

Distributed Storage-Adaptable RDF Graph Store Over Cloud Infrastructure

Observation-assisted optimal control of quantum dynamics.

This paper explores the utility of instantaneous and continuous observations in the optimal control of quantum dynamics. Simulations of the processes are performed on several multilevel quantum systems with the goal of population transfer. Optimal control fields are shown to be capable of cooperating or fighting with observations to achieve a good yield, and the nature of the observations may b...

Optimal Distributed Tracking Control for Nonlinear Cooperative Wireless Sensor Networks

The optimal distributed tracking control algorithms over nonlinear cooperative wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are presented in this paper. In order to solve transfer delay and packet loss problem, the architecture of wireless active sensor (WAS) is employed, where a state estimator is embedded, which can provide the needed state information. Furthermore, the optimal distributed tracking contro...

Optimal Control of Nonlinear Multivariable Systems

This paper concerns a study on the optimal control for nonlinear systems. An appropriate alternative in order to alleviate the nonlinearity of a system is the exact linearization approach. In this fashion, the nonlinear system has been linearized using input-output feedback linearization (IOFL). Then, by utilizing the well developed optimal control theory of linear systems, the compensated ...
