NSGA-II-based load resource management for frequency and voltage support by Yaxin Wang, Zhihang Zhu, Zhihong Yu, Zigan Wang

“…The LRM method supports primary frequency and voltage regulation, and its integration with network dynamics minimizes the established disutility function caused by load participation. For better control performance, a non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-II (NSGA-II)-based gain-tuning procedure was utilized for LRM, aiming to enhance the frequency/voltage nadir, reduce the frequency/voltage steady-state error, and minimize the total load control efforts. …”

Distributed congestion control strategy using network utility maximization theory in VANET by Guozhen TAN, Guodong HAN, Fuxin ZHANG, Nan DING, Mingjian LIU

“…Cooperative vehicle safety system (CVSS) rely on periodical beacons to track neighboring vehicles.High traffic density often causes channel congestion,seriously damaging the performance of CVSS.Existing congestion control strategies aim to ensure the performance in network layer,without considering the service requirements of vehicles in different driving contexts.To solve the problem,a distributed congestion control strategy using network utility maximization (NUM) theory was proposed.First of all,the NUM model for channel resource allocation was introduced.A utility function reflecting vehicle’s safety requirements was proposed in the model.Then under the condition of fixed transmit powers,a optimization problem of channel resource allocation was proposed.Lastly,to solve the optimization problem,a distributed congestion control algorithm named utility-based rate congestion control (UBRCC) algorithm was designed,the algorithm worked out the optimal beaconing rate by updating vehicle’s congestion price,realizing the resource allocation according to vehicle’s safety requirements.Simulation results validate that UBRCC algorithm can efficiently control channel congestion,reduce transmission delay,ensure reliable data transmission and satisfies the requirements of safety applications.…”
