Quadrotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are generally underactuated systems and when load is attached for transportation purposes, the system complexity increases. Therefore, need to appropriately control such becomes paramount as they usually navigate in cluttered environments. In this work, we conceptualize problem of cooperative tracking a Multi-agent UAV (MUAVLs) whereby each divided into...

Although the accuracy of load forecasting has been studied by many works, actual deployability a model is rarely considered. In this work, we consider from four aspects: 1) prediction performance model; 2) robustness 3) dependence on external data; and 4) storage size model. From these aspects, propose multiple wavelet convolutional neural network (MWCNN) for forecasting. On two public data set...

In Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET), single path QoS routing is disadvantageous since it may cause fading, interference, collision and link failures. For QoS routing, load balancing is essential since it allows a router to take advantage of multiple best paths to a given destination. It can minimize the maximum utilization while supporting the same traffic demands. It reacts quickly to changes in ...

There is a huge and growing number of systems that depend on batteries for power supply, ranging from small mobile devices to large high-powered systems such as electrical substations. In most of these systems, there are significant user-benefits or engineering reasons to base the supply on multiple batteries, with load being switched between batteries by a control system. The key to efficient ...

The bulk hydropower transmission via trans-provincial and trans-regional power networks in China provides great operational flexibility to dispatch power resources between multiple power grids. This is very beneficial to alleviate the tremendous peak load pressure of most provincial power grids. This study places the focus on peak operations of cascaded hydropower plants serving multiple provin...
