Predictive Agent-Based Crowd Model Design Using Decentralized Control Systems

A model-based decentralized control design for general interconnected systems

This paper deals with the decentralized control of an interconnected system, where each subsystem has models of all other subsystems (subject to uncertainty). A decentralized controller is constructed based on a reference centralized controller. It is shown that when a priori knowledge of each subsystem about the other subsystems’ models is exact, then the decentralized closed-loop system can p...

Decentralized Model Predictive Control of Electrical Power Systems

This paper presents an integral control strategy which integrates data from phase measurement units to damp inter-area oscillations. The proposed decentralized model predictive control method has one control unit for each controllable device (Generators, FACTS, HVDC) and coordinates their behavior after a fault. Each unit is designed by applying a systematic controller synthesis. The decentrali...

Decentralized and Hierarchical Model Predictive Control of Networked Systems

A Decentralized Event-Based Model Predictive Controller Design Method for Large-Scale Systems

This paper presents a new methodology to design decentralized event-based control strategy for largescale systems under the general MPC framework. The method introduces an appealing perspective to effectively reduce the computing load and communication effort in computer-based networks by incorporating the MPC approach in an event-based design framework. The proposed methodology is shown to be ...

Decentralized Observer-Based Robust Model Predictive Control for a Class of Distributed Networked Systems

This paper presents a decentralized observer-based robust model predictive control strategy for a class of distributed networked systems. The overall system is composed of a number of interconnected nonlinear subsystems with time-varying transmission delays. Time delays are appeared in distributed subsystems due to the information transmission in the communication networks. A decentralized cont...
