Wind generation has gained widespread use as a renewable energy source. Most wind turbines and other renewables connected to the grid through converters result in a reduction in the natural inertial response to grid frequency changes. The doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) can be controlled to compensate for this reduction and, in fact, provide faster response than traditional synchronous machines. This paper proposes to design observer based output feedback linear quadratic regulator (LQR) and H∞ control laws to realize the inertia emulation function and deliver fast frequency support. The aim is to track the reference speed by a diesel synchronous generator (DSG) in order to reach the desired inertia. The control signal is computed based on a reduced order model using the balanced truncation technique. A comparison with selective modal analysis (SMA) and balanced truncation model reduction techniques is presented. Comprehensive results show the effective emulation of synthetic inertia by implementing the control laws on a nonlinear three-phase diesel-wind system. The proposed technique is analyzed for different short circuit ratio (SCR) scenarios.

A spontaneous group of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is denoted as a swarm of UAVs (S-UAVs). The UAVs communicate wirelessly and cooperate to accomplish tasks. In crisis scenarios such as flooding or earthquakes, all UAVs are at risk of getting damaged and thus non-functional. A non- functional UAV will result in a disconnected network, especially if that UAV is highly responsible for packet forwarding. S- UAV s are dynamic networks; clustering is one of the most adopted routing schemes in S-UAVs. The clustering scheme groups the UAVs into clusters where each cluster is formed of a cluster head (CH) and cluster members (CMs). Only the CH can handle inter-cluster communication. Due to the crucial role played by the CH, its selection is a continuous field of research. This paper proposes an enhanced clustered weighted scheme with redundancy to ensure end-to-end communication. The proposed scheme is based on a weighted formula for the primary CH, redundant CH, and CMs selection. The weighted formula calculates a cluster index based on the distance, the speed, and the reward index. A new component is added to the reward index which is performance. The redundant CH is selected to automatically replace the primary CH whenever it is damaged. If the redundant CH becomes inoperable, the second redundant CH will take over. Each cluster is formed of n CMs and will have n-2 redundant CHs. The results obtained from the conducted simulation experiments concluded that this promising scheme decreases data loss in a crisis case scenario.

A swarm of unmanned aerial vehicles (S-UAVs) consists of UAVs flying together with the target of accomplishing a certain task in a faster and more reliable way as compared to a single UAV. In a crisis scenario, UAVs have been widely used in rescue missions. Clustering is one of the most reliable routing schemes for S-UAVs. The UAVs are grouped into clusters with a cluster-head (CH) and cluster-members (CM). The CH plays a major role in clustering schemes as it handles all inter-cluster communication. In a crisis case, any UAV is at risk of getting non-functional, thus resulting in a disconnected cluster. This paper proposes a new clustering scheme based on K-means and weighted formulas. The K-means protocol is applied to generate pilot phase clusters. Afterward, whenever the metrics of the networks are established, the weighted formula is applied for cluster formation and CH selection. The weighted formula is based on the performance index, the relative movement, and the remaining energy. To ensure end-to-end communication despite CH non-functionality, our proposed protocol selects a redundant CH for every CH. This protocol had been simulated using MATLAB. The results obtained and analyzed towards the end of this paper demonstrate that the proposed scheme is very promising.

In this paper, we consider the learning of a Reduced-Order Linear Parameter-Varying Model (ROLPVM) of a nonlinear dynamical system based on data. This is achieved by a two-step procedure. In the first step, we learn a projection to a lower dimensional state-space. In step two, an LPV model is learned on the reduced-order state-space using a novel, efficient parameterization in terms of neural networks. The improved modeling accuracy of the method compared to an existing method is demonstrated by simulation examples.
