We focus on the case that packet losses may occur in an unreliable communication channel between the sensor and the controller. This sort of packet loss enables the optimal control problem to fall into the category of optimal output‐feedback control. Also, the output involves multiplicative noise. As well known, the separation principle fails to hold in a multiplicative‐noise setting. Thus the problem is very involved. By solving forward and backward stochastic difference equations and making convergence analysis, we acquire the necessary and sufficient solvability condition and the explicit optimal controller. The achieved results are illustrated by numerical examples.","PeriodicalId":105945,"journal":{"name":"Optimal Control Applications and Methods","volume":"509 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113995690","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We prove that such feedback controls globally stabilize the resulting closed-loop system near the desired equilibrium point. This result is obtained by combining the theory of asymptotically autonomous systems and an explicit computation of solutions to the limit system.

To provide frequency control support, a centralized TVPP is exposed to communication delays because of the numerous message exchanges between the grid operator, the VPP operator, and the DERs. The VPP operator also imposes dead band restrictions on the droop control signal to avoid frequent activation of sensitive DERs. The literature lacks the frequency control models of VPP that can handle these delay and dead‐band issues. This work attempts to incorporate frequency dead‐band and communication delays in the primary (droop control) and secondary control (ACE control) loop for the DERs in the VPP. In addition, a control approach based on 2DOF‐PID controllers tuned by a recently developed artificial gorilla troops optimizer (GTO) is employed to control the frequency of the VPP model. The GTO algorithm performs better on comparative assessment than the other classical optimization algorithms. Under dynamic performance evaluation, the 2DOF‐PID controller outperforms the GTO‐optimized PID and PI controllers. Finally, the sensitivity analysis results show that the proposed GTO‐optimized 2DOF‐PID controller for the VPP model is robust against uncertainties in the system.","PeriodicalId":105945,"journal":{"name":"Optimal Control Applications and Methods","volume":"99 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122493289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the new standard system, a minimax robust local Kalman filter is proposed by using the minimax robust estimation principle, which ensures that the actual filtering error variance has the corresponding minimum upper bound for all allowable uncertainties. Further, the robust local and distributed fusion filters for original singular control systems are proposed, and the actual and conservative filtering error variances are obtained.
