Afrl-va-wp-tp-2004-305 Communication Requirements in the Cooperative Control of Wide Area Search Munitions Using Iterative Network Flow
نویسندگان
چکیده
Communication requirements are considered for the cooperative control of wide area search munitions where resource allocation is performed by an iterative network flow. We briefly outline both the single and iterative network flow assignment algorithms and their communication requirements. Then, using the abstracted communication framework recently incorporated into AFRL’s MultiUAV simulation package, a model is constructed to investigate the peak and average data rates occurring in a sequence of vehicle-target scenarios using an iterative network flow for task allocation, implemented as a redundant, centralized optimization, that assumes perfect communication.

متن کاملA Fast Voltage Collapse Detection and Prevention Based on Wide Area Monitoring and Control
Voltage stability is one of the most important factors in maintaining reliable operation of power systems. When a disturbance occurs in the power system, it usually causes instabilities and sometimes leads to voltage collapse (VC). To avoid such problems, a novel approach called Vector Analysis (VA) is proposed that exploits a new instability detection index to provide wide area voltage stabili...
