We develop the STS control logic, which transfers the critical load from the preferred feeder to the alternate feeder when a voltage sag or a fault occurs on the preferred feeder. A forced commutation technique is proposed and implemented to turn off the preferred feeders' thyristor, thus avoiding cross current to flow and minimizing the transfer time. Simulation results show that the forced commutation technique is more effective as compared to the recently proposed time delay technique for STS operation. Two different feeders, namely New Exchange, the preferred feeder, and Sector 1-10/2, the alternate feeder of Islamabad Electric Supply COmpany (IESCO), Pakistan, have been selected for case studies. The software PSCAD/EMTDC professional package has been used for simulation.展开更多

Eight priorities for both unicast and multicast traffic are implemented, and the highest priority with strict QoS guarantee is designed for real-time traffic. Through performance analysis under multi-prlorlty burst traffic, we demonstrate that the load-balancing algorithm is efficient, and the switch system not only provides excellent performance to real-time traffic, but also efficiently allocates bandwidth among other traffic of lower priorities. As a result, this parallel switch system is more scalable towards next generation core routers with QoS guarantee, as well as ensures in-order delivery of IP packets.展开更多

First...The robust admissibility analysis of a class of uncertain discrete-time switched linear singular(SLS) systems for arbitrary switching laws is addressed. The parameter uncertainty is assumed to be norm-bounded. First, by using the switched Lyapunov function approach, some new sufficient conditions ensuring the nominal discrete-time SLS system to be regular, casual and asymptotically stable for arbitrary switching laws are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Then, the robust admissibility condition for the uncertain discrete-time SLS systems is presented. The obtained results can be viewed as an extension of previous works on the switched Lyapunov function approach from the regular switched linear systems to the switched linear singular cases. Numerical examples show the reduced conservatism and effectiveness of the proposed conditions.展开更多

To solve this problem, a test system for invert switch is presented to verify the reliability of the invert switch. The test system uses complex programmable logic device (CPLD) to control data acquisition of A/D converter and data storage of external flash memory, and then transmits the acquired data to a computer for data analysis and processing. The test system can provide the required sampling frequency of the signal in high temperature, normal temperature and low temperature environments, and the reliability of the invert switch can be verified according to the signal parameters. The results show that the test system has high precision and the tested invert switch has low power consumption and high reliability.展开更多

文摘This paper proposes a model-based control framework for vehicle platooning systems with secondorder nonlinear dynamics operating over switching signed networks,time-varying delays,and deception attacks.The study includes two configurations:a leaderless structure using Finite-Time Non-Singular Terminal Bipartite Consensus(FNTBC)and Fixed-Time Bipartite Consensus(FXTBC),and a leader—follower structure ensuring structural balance and robustness against deceptive signals.In the leaderless model,a bipartite controller based on impulsive control theory,gauge transformation,and Markovian switching Lyapunov functions ensures mean-square stability and coordination under deception attacks and communication delays.The FNTBC achieves finite-time convergence depending on initial conditions,while the FXTBC guarantees fixed-time convergence independent of them,providing adaptability to different operating states.In the leader—follower case,a discontinuous impulsive control law synchronizes all followers with the leader despite deceptive attacks and switching topologies,maintaining robust coordination through nonlinear corrective mechanisms.To validate the approach,simulations are conducted on systems of five and seventeen vehicles in both leaderless and leader—follower configurations.The results demonstrate that the proposed framework achieves rapid consensus,strong robustness,and high resistance to deception attacks,offering a secure and scalable model-based control solution for modern vehicular communication networks.
文摘A security issue with multi-sensor unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)cyber physical systems(CPS)from the viewpoint of a false data injection(FDI)attacker is investigated in this paper.The FDI attacker can employ attacks on feedback and feed-forward channels simultaneously with limited resource.The attacker aims at degrading the UAV CPS's estimation performance to the max while keeping stealthiness characterized by the Kullback-Leibler(K-L)divergence.The attacker is resource limited which can only attack part of sensors,and the attacked sensor as well as specific forms of attack signals at each instant should be considered by the attacker.Also,the sensor selection principle is investigated with respect to time invariant attack covariances.Additionally,the optimal switching attack strategies in regard to time variant attack covariances are modeled as a multi-agent Markov decision process(MDP)with hybrid discrete-continuous action space.Then,the multi-agent MDP is solved by utilizing the deep Multi-agent parameterized Q-networks(MAPQN)method.Ultimately,a quadrotor near hover system is used to validate the effectiveness of the results in the simulation section.

文摘This paper studies the load-balancing algorithm and quality of service (QoS) control mechanism in a 320Gb/s switch system, which incorporates four packet-level parallel switch planes. Eight priorities for both unicast and multicast traffic are implemented, and the highest priority with strict QoS guarantee is designed for real-time traffic. Through performance analysis under multi-prlorlty burst traffic, we demonstrate that the load-balancing algorithm is efficient, and the switch system not only provides excellent performance to real-time traffic, but also efficiently allocates bandwidth among other traffic of lower priorities. As a result, this parallel switch system is more scalable towards next generation core routers with QoS guarantee, as well as ensures in-order delivery of IP packets.

文摘The robust admissibility analysis of a class of uncertain discrete-time switched linear singular(SLS) systems for arbitrary switching laws is addressed. The parameter uncertainty is assumed to be norm-bounded. First, by using the switched Lyapunov function approach, some new sufficient conditions ensuring the nominal discrete-time SLS system to be regular, casual and asymptotically stable for arbitrary switching laws are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Then, the robust admissibility condition for the uncertain discrete-time SLS systems is presented. The obtained results can be viewed as an extension of previous works on the switched Lyapunov function approach from the regular switched linear systems to the switched linear singular cases. Numerical examples show the reduced conservatism and effectiveness of the proposed conditions.
文摘For electronic piezo gauge used for testing gun chamber pressure, its internal miniature pulse-powered photoelectric invert switch cannot often be powered up normally. To solve this problem, a test system for invert switch is presented to verify the reliability of the invert switch. The test system uses complex programmable logic device (CPLD) to control data acquisition of A/D converter and data storage of external flash memory, and then transmits the acquired data to a computer for data analysis and processing. The test system can provide the required sampling frequency of the signal in high temperature, normal temperature and low temperature environments, and the reliability of the invert switch can be verified according to the signal parameters. The results show that the test system has high precision and the tested invert switch has low power consumption and high reliability.
