A Decentralized and Cooperative Architecture for Optimal Voltage Regulation in Smart Grids

Vaccaro, Alfredo, Velotto, Giovanni, Zobaa, Ahmed F.·2011·IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics

Abstract

Optimal voltage regulation is one of the main issues to address in a Smart Grid context. In this domain, the application of traditional hierarchical control paradigms has some disadvantages that could hinder their application in Smart Grids where the constant growth of grid complexity and the need for massive pervasion of distribution generation systems require more scalable and more flexible control and regulation paradigms. To try and overcome these challenges, this paper proposes the concept of a decentralized nonhierarchal voltage regulation architecture based on intelligent and cooperative smart entities. This paper intends to bring two main contributions to the existing literature. The first is the definition of a decentralized architecture aimed at computing the actual value of the cost function and its gradient without the need of a central fusion center acquiring and processing all the sensor acquisitions. The second is the proposal of a distributed and cooperative optimization strategy aimed at identifying the optimal asset of the voltage controllers.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
