Abstract

The virtual synchronous generator technology analogs the characteristics of the synchronous generator via the controller design. It improved the stability of the grid systems which include the new energy. At the same time, according to the adjustable characteristics of the virtual synchronous generator parameters, the parameter adaptive adjustment is used to improve the dynamic performance of the system. However, the traditional virtual synchronous generator adaptive control technology still has two drawbacks: on the one hand, the large-scale adjustment of the damping droop coefficient and the virtual moment of inertia requires the system having a high energy storage margin; On the other hand, there is a power overshoot phenomenon in the transient regulation process, which is disadvantageous to the power equipment. First, this paper provides a convenient adjustment method for improving the transient stability of the system, the system damping is adjusted by introducing the output speed feedback. Second, according to the transient power-angle characteristics of the system, a parameter adaptive control strategy is proposed, which shortens the transient adjustment time and ensures that the deviation of the system frequency in the transient adjustment process is within the allowable range, and improves the transient performance of the grid frequency adjustment, at the same time, the power overshoot is suppressed. Finally, the experimental results show that the proposed control strategy is superior to the existing adaptive control strategy.

From Data to Sliding Mode Control of Uncertain Large-Scale Networks with Unknown Dynamics

In this paper, we develop a compositional data-driven approach for the global stabilization of large-scale nonlinear networks with unknown dynamics and external perturbations. We first collect data along a single trajectory of each unknown nominal subsystem during a finite-time experiment. The data collected from each nominal subsystem are then used to design a feedback law that renders each nominal closed-loop subsystem input-to-state stable (ISS), certified by its corresponding ISS Lyapunov function. We derive conditions as data-dependent semidefinite programs that simultaneously yield local ISS controllers and the corresponding ISS Lyapunov functions. To cancel the effect of external perturbations on subsystem dynamics and, consequently, on the whole network dynamics, we then design a local integral sliding mode (ISM) controller for each subsystem using the collected data. Under a small-gain compositional condition, we employ data-driven ISS Lyapunov functions designed for the subsystems to construct a control Lyapunov function for the network, guaranteeing that the nominal closed-loop network is globally asymptotically stable (GAS) at the origin. We then extend this compositional result to perturbed networks, proving that the synthesized ISM controllers render the origin of the closed-loop network GAS even in the presence of perturbations. We demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed data-driven approach on large-scale interconnected networks with five distinct interconnection topologies.

Simultaneous improvement of control and estimation for battery management systems

Standard battery management systems treat the control and state estimation problems as decoupled objectives, relying on certainty equivalence controllers that are blind to the varying observability induced by nonlinear open-circuit voltage models. In this paper, we show that for a broad class of objectives, including the peak shaving and valley filling scenarios common in grid-connected energy storage, the expected cost of a stochastic battery system can be exactly parametrized by the conditional mean and covariance of the state of charge. This reformulation reveals a direct coupling between the control input and estimation quality, a coupling that certainty equivalence controllers ignore, and motivates a dual-control approach in which the controller actively reduces estimation uncertainty by driving the state to high observability regions without compromising the control objective. We derive a deterministic surrogate to this stochastic cost and pose the dual-control problem as a computationally tractable model predictive control problem. We validate our approach on a nine-battery system tracking a time-varying reference trajectory. We report simultaneous improvements in tracking cost (a 28\% reduction) and state estimation error (up to 18\% reduction). The estimation improvement is reported across different state estimators: extended Kalman filter, unscented Kalman filter, and a moving horizon estimator, confirming that the estimation improvement of our approach is not restricted to a specific state observer.

Time-To-Reach Separation and Safety Filtering for Safe, Fair, and Efficient Multi-Agent Coordination

Advanced Air Mobility operations are expected to significantly increase aerial traffic in urban airspace, requiring autonomous traffic management systems to ensure collision-free operations in highly congested environments. In this paper, we propose a multi-agent coordination framework that uses minimum time-to-reach (TTR) as a unifying metric for priority assignment, temporal separation, and safety filtering. We focus on the problem of coordinating multiple aerial vehicles merging into an air corridor while maintaining safe separation between vehicles. Vehicles are assigned arrival-consistent priority based on TTR, and target TTR values are used to enforce temporal spacing, which induces spatial separation. A priority-consistent safety filtering layer based on Hamilton-Jacobi reachability value functions promotes collision avoidance while minimally modifying the reference guidance. Simulation results in a highly congested corridor merging scenario show that the proposed method improves safety, fairness, and efficiency compared to time-optimal guidance and priority-agnostic safety filtering.
