Electric load forecasting is essential for power management and stability in smart grids. This is mainly achieved via advanced metering infrastructure, where smart meters (SMs) record household energy data. Traditional machine learning (ML) methods are often employed for load forecasting but require data sharing which raises data privacy concerns. Federated learning (FL) can address this issue by running distributed ML models at local SMs without data exchange. However, current FL-based approaches struggle to achieve efficient load forecasting due to imbalanced data distribution across heterogeneous SMs. This paper presents a novel personalized federated learning (PFL) method for high-quality load forecasting in metering networks. A meta-learning-based strategy is developed to address data heterogeneity at local SMs in the collaborative training of local load forecasting models. Moreover, to minimize the load forecasting delays in our PFL model, we study a new latency optimization problem based on optimal resource allocation at SMs. A theoretical convergence analysis is also conducted to provide insights into FL design for federated load forecasting. Extensive simulations from real-world datasets show that our method outperforms existing approaches in terms of better load forecasting and reduced operational latency costs.

The economic dispatch problem (EDP) poses a significant challenge in energy management for modern power systems, particularly as these systems undergo expansion. This growth escalates the demand for communication resources and increases the risk of communication failures. To address this challenge, we propose a distributed algorithm with network-independent step sizes and an event-triggered mechanism, which reduces communication requirements and enhances adaptability. Unlike traditional methods, our algorithm uses network-independent step sizes derived from each agent's local cost functions, thus eliminating the need for detailed network topology knowledge. The theoretical derivation identifies a range of step size values that depend solely on the objective function's strong convexity and the gradient's Lipschitz continuity. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm is shown to achieve a linear convergence rate, assuming the event triggering threshold criteria are met for linear convergence. Numerical experiments further validate the effectiveness and advantages of our proposed distributed algorithm by demonstrating its ability to maintain good convergence characteristics while reducing communication frequency. © 2024 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.

Wind power producers (WPPs) participating in short-term power markets face significant imbalance costs due to their non-dispatchable and variable production. While some WPPs have a large enough market share to influence prices with their bidding decisions, existing optimal bidding methods rarely account for this aspect. Price-maker approaches typically model bidding as a bilevel optimization problem, but these methods require complex market models, estimating other participants’ actions, and are computationally demanding. To address these challenges, we propose an online learning algorithm that leverages contextual information to optimize WPP bids in the price-maker setting. We formulate the strategic bidding problem as a contextual multi-armed bandit, ensuring provable regret minimization. The algorithm’s performance is evaluated against various benchmark strategies using a numerical simulation of the German day-ahead and real-time markets. Copyright © 2025, The Authors.

A novel design approach for truncating a phase-reversal Fresnel lens is presented. This method relies on focusing the feed antenna’s radiation in a single plane through the use of cascaded dielectric slabs, effectively removing the need for a conventional feeding network. The proposed feed is realized using printed circuit board (PCB) technology, offering a highly economical solution. Its microstrip line feed allows direct integration with transceiver ICs, avoiding the need for complex transitions commonly associated with horn or waveguide feeds. Furthermore, the design is compact and maintains a low-profile structure. The proposed method reduces the lens size by 56%. The resulting lens antenna achieves a peak realized gain of 29 dBi at 30 GHz and has an aperture efficiency of 12%. Its impedance bandwidth is 13.3%, while the 3-dB gain bandwidth is 6.7%. The side-lobes are effectively suppressed, ranging from -10 to -15 dB across the entire operating band. This antenna design is well suited for high-gain millimeter-wave (mm-Wave) and Internet of Things (IoT) applications. © 1963-2012 IEEE.

The future sixth-generation (6G) networks are envisioned to support machines and robots besides human beings. In order to efficiently support machines and robots working in remote and post-disaster areas, satellites and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can be utilized. In this article, we investigate how satellite-UAV networks can serve robots for their control tasks. We introduce the typical use cases of the satellite-UAV networks for control and outline the relevant challenges. The control process usually involves sensing, communication, computing, and control components, which forms a sensing-communication-computing-control (SC3) closed loop. In analogy with the reflex arc structure of humans, we reveal the indivisibility of the SC3 closed loops and propose a closed-loop-oriented system design framework. Within this framework, we take the closed-loop control performance as the design target, and highlight the holistic consideration of sensing, communication, computing, and control components in the SC3 closed loop. Furthermore, we discuss the extended SC3 closed loop with multiple sensors and robots to decompose complex control systems. A case study is provided to show the performance gain of the proposed closed-loop-oriented system design. Finally, we outline open issues in designing more efficient satellite-UAV networks for control. ©1986-2012 IEEE.

Recent advances in attention-based artificial intelligence (AI) models have unlocked vast potential to automate digital hardware design while enhancing and strengthening security measures against various threats. This rapidly emerging field leverages Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate HDL code, identify vulnerabilities, and sometimes mitigate them. The state of the art in this design automation space utilizes optimized LLMs with HDL datasets, creating automated systems for register transfer level(RTL) generation, verification, and debugging and establishing LLM-driven design environments for streamlined logic designs. Additionally, attention-based models like graph attention have shown promise in chip design applications, including floorplanning. This survey investigates the integration of these models into hardware-related domains, emphasizing logic design and hardware security, with or without the use of IP libraries. This study explores the commercial and academic landscape, highlighting technical hurdles and future prospects for automating hardware design and security. Moreover, it provides new insights into the study of LLM-driven design systems, advances in hardware security mechanisms, and the impact of influential works on industry practices. Through the examination of 30 representative approaches and illustrative case studies, this paper underscores the transformative potential of attention-based models in revolutionizing hardware design while addressing the challenges that lie ahead in this interdisciplinary domain. © 2025, CC BY.

We develop a novel framework for fully decentralized offloading policy design in multi access edge computing (MEC) systems. The system comprises N power-constrained user equipments (UEs) assisted by an edge server (ES) to process incoming tasks. Tasks are labeled with urgency flags, and in this paper, we classify them under three urgency levels, namely, high, moderate, and low urgency. We formulate the problem of designing computation decisions for the UEs within a large population noncooperative game framework, where each UE selfishly decides on how to split task execution between its local onboard processor and the ES. We employ the weighted average age of information (AoI) metric to quantify information freshness at the UEs. Increased on-board processing consumes more local power, while increased offloading may potentially incur a higher average AoI due to other UEs’ packets being offloaded to the same ES. Thus, we use the mean-field game (MFG) formulation to compute approximate decentralized Nash equilibrium offloading and local computation policies for the UEs to balance between the information freshness and local power consumption. Finally, we provide a projected gradient descent-based algorithm to numerically assess the merits of our approach. Copyright © 2025, The Authors. All rights reserved.

In this letter, we investigate a dynamic reconfigurable distributed antenna and reflection surface (RDARS)driven secure communication system, where the working mode of the RDARS can be flexibly configured. We aim to maximize the secrecy rate by jointly designing the active beamforming vectors, reflection coefficients, and the channel-aware mode selection matrix. To address the non-convex binary and cardinality constraints introduced by dynamic mode selection, we propose an efficient alternating optimization (AO) framework that employs penalty-based fractional programming (FP) and successive convex approximation (SCA) transformations. Simulation results demonstrate the potential of RDARS in enhancing the secrecy rate and show its superiority compared to existing reflection surface-based schemes. Copyright © 2025, The Authors.

This paper introduces a method that globally converges to Bstationary points of mathematical programs with equilibrium constraints (MPECs) in a finite number of iterations. B-stationarity is necessary for optimality and means that no feasible first-order direction improves the objective. Given a feasible point of an MPEC, B-stationarity can be certified by solving a linear program with equilibrium constraints (LPEC) constructed at this point. The proposed method solves a sequence of LPECs, which either certify B-stationarity or provide an active-set estimate for the complementarity constraints, and nonlinear programs (NLPs) - referred to as branch NLPs (BNLPs) - obtained by fixing the active set in the MPEC. A BNLP is more regular than the MPEC, easier to solve, and with the correct active set, its solution coincides with the solution of the MPEC. The method has two phases: the first phase identifies a feasible BNLP or certifies local infeasibility, and the second phase solves a finite sequence of BNLPs until a B-stationary point of the MPECis found. The paper provides a detailed convergence analysis and discusses implementation details. In addition, extensive numerical experiments and an open-source software implementation are provided. The experiments demonstrate that the proposed method is more robust and faster than relaxation-based methods, while also providing a certificate of B-stationarity without requiring the usual too-restrictive *** Codes 90C30, 90C33, 49M37, 65K10, 90C11 © 2025, CC BY.
