چکیده
This paper deals with the application of a multi agent system (MAS) for service restoration in distributed power systems. In this paper, the part of the service restoration process which deals with restoring power to consumers in case of an outage, is considered. A restoration strategy based on agent technology has been formulated. This strategy proposes a method for prioritizing certain consumers as part of the restoration process. A multi agent system has been developed in JADE, a software framework specifically suited for the development of agent software systems. A simple distribution network has been used as the basis for simulating the operation of the MAS. In order to verify the capability of the MAS software, it has been tested with two kinds of fault scenarios occurring in the distribution network., it has been considered how to connect a MAS developed in JADE with a model of a physical network. The intention for this has been the potential for simulating the interaction between the MAS in JADE and a realistic physical model of a distribution network. Matlab Simulink has been used to build a model of a physical network and a communication between Matlab and JADE has been established. The MAS has been seen to perform successfully to different fault scenarios. The results of this paper have been a demonstration of a multi agent system as an approach to power service restoration. Thus, it has been demonstrated how FIPA protocols and ontologies can be utilized in a multi agent system to add intelligence to the service restoration process.

متن کاملVariable Structure Behavioural Controller for Multi-agent Systems
In previous papers authors have considered agents as inertia-less self driven particles and designed a flocking algorithm. Application of this algorithm to agents with considerable inertial characteristics needs a behavioural controller. The controller uses the local information and helps every agent to imitate the desired behaviour as a member of the flocking frame which covers the main is...

Bayesian Networks (BN) provides a robust probabilistic method of reasoning under uncertainty. They have been successfully applied in a variety of real-world tasks but they have received little attention in the area of load-frequency control (LFC). In practice, LFC systems use proportional-integral controllers. However since these controllers are designed using a linear model, the nonlinearities...
