Pushing artificial intelligence(AI) from central cloud to network edge has reached board consensus in both industry and academia for materializing the vision of artificial intelligence of things(AIoT) in the sixth-generation(6G) era. This gives rise to an emerging research area known as edge intelligence, which concerns the distillation of human-like intelligence from the vast amount of data scattered at the wireless network edge. Typically, realizing edge intelligence corresponds to the processes of sensing, communication,and computation, which are coupled ingredients for data generation, exchanging, and processing, ***, conventional wireless networks design the three mentioned ingredients separately in a task-agnostic manner, which leads to difficulties in accommodating the stringent demands of ultra-low latency, ultra-high reliability, and high capacity in emerging AI applications like auto-driving and metaverse. This thus prompts a new design paradigm of seamlessly integrated sensing, communication, and computation(ISCC) in a taskoriented manner, which comprehensively accounts for the use of the data in downstream AI tasks. In view of its growing interest, this study provides a timely overview of ISCC for edge intelligence by introducing its basic concept, design challenges, and enabling techniques, surveying the state-of-the-art advancements, and shedding light on the road ahead.

Delivery transport is one of the main drives of the global economy and a major oil consumer. Calculation of optimal routes is an everlasting effort to increase the efficiency of the sector. With the rising trend of electric vehicles, the sector is exploring this revolutionary alternative. This paper presents a vehicle routing problem optimized with the information of delivery-dependent battery consumption, depending on road conditions and cargo. A mathematical model of the vehicle is derived, encompassing the information of mechanical and electrical aspects. Further simplification is introduced with statistical analysis of typical driving cycles in the considered environments. Finally, the on-site road conditions are exploited to have a simple, yet sufficiently accurate information on the battery capacity at every point of the delivery process. The predictive vehicle routing algorithm is applied for the realistic case study and a comparison of electric and conventional diesel vehicles is performed, additionally compared to the current retail data provider. Results show promising monetary costs reductions of up to 80% in various cases, outlying the potential of the new technology and optimization algorithms.

This paper focuses on the identification of thermodynamic models for temperature prediction in households. The proposed temperature dynamics model falls under the class of Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) models, making it suitable for model predictive control synthesis. However, the presence of significant and variable thermal disturbances in households adds complexity to the identification process. The performance of various prediction error methods, such as ARX, ARARMAX, and BJ models, along with simplified models incorporating persistent disturbance excitation, is analyzed. The findings highlight the substantial impact of unknown disturbances on temperature predictions, emphasizing the crucial need for accurate prediction of these disturbances for effective household heating and cooling planning. The identification and evaluation of model performance measures are conducted using two months of experimental data collected from five households. This study contributes to understanding of the significance of addressing unknown disturbances and variability in thermodynamic model identification for temperature prediction.

A lightning current measurement system for wind turbines was developed and tested in the High Voltage Laboratory at the Faculty of electricalengineering and computing, University of Zagreb, to determine actual distributions of lightning current parameters in a particular wind turbine area. The output of the measurement system is a waveform of lightning current. The measurement system consists of two current sensors with different frequency and amplitude ranges and a real-time controller with two digitizers and a GPS module. The current sensors are Rogowski coils connected to integrators with coaxial cables. The prototype was installed on a wind turbine in a high winter lightning activity area. The current stage of development involves integrating the high-speed camera into the prototype measurement system to obtain the visual confirmation of the waveform measurements and help categorize lightning strikes into downward or upward strikes. The camera control application was developed in LabVIEW. The camera was set to trigger by the real-time controller. Also, a redundant trigger occurs when there is a change in motion in the camera frame in case the prototype measurement system fails to register a lightning strike and therefore fails to send a trigger signal to the camera. The camera control application was tested in the High Voltage Laboratory by recording a flashover in a spark gap and a flashover on the insulator.

The paper is focussed on set-based correction of the wind turbine controls in order to evade high mechanical loads on structural components of a wind turbine during transients. A set in the state space of the wind turbine model is constructed where all accounted mechanical loads are within the prescribed limits. The approach is universal in a way that mechanical loads on different components, which are expressed as functions of the wind turbine states and inputs, can be blended together in that set description. A procedure is proposed to determine a non-conservative polytopic under-approximation of the mentioned set. Following that, a controlled invariant set methodology is used to compute a controlled invariant subset of the polytopic set. It is applied in on-line controls for a minimalistic correction of outputs of any wind turbine control algorithm that assures all the observed mechanical loads on different components are within boundaries. The approach is illustrated for mechanical loads on the axle pin and controls in an operating area above the nominal wind speed.

In most cases, underwater localization implies a fusion of two or more sensors, usually inertial and acoustic ones. Acoustic localization demands the deployment of the acoustic baseline if precise measurement is needed. Using a fixed predeployed baseline limits the accuracy of location estimates outside certain operating areas defined by the baseline. In case an AUV or a diver has to be localized underwater, their trajectory is usually unknown, so it is a challenging task to deploy a baseline in such a manner that localization is accurate. In this paper, the sequential deployment of acoustic breadcrumb modems is suggested as the alternative to the conventional baseline deployment. This type of sequentially deployed acoustic baseline in combination with IMU is first simulated and later on tested in a constrained environment in shallow waters in order to show what are the main challenges, advantages and potential problems with this type of localization.

The massive penetration of distributed energy resources (DER) encourages the provision of frequency regulation services at the distribution network level following large frequency disturbances occurring at the transmission system side. The availability of reduced-order or aggregated models will facilitate the coordination between transmission and distribution system operators. As there are no models that can capture the dynamics of diverse distributed technologies and their control systems by a unified single device model, this paper presents the single equivalent device based on the virtual synchronous machine (VSM) technology that can subsume the frequency response of different DER and loads. The validation of the proposed model is performed on the adjusted IEEE 9-bus system for different multi-energy systems. Simulated scenarios have demonstrated the accuracy of proposed aggregation with a maximum relative error of 0.1% as well as computational improvement of almost 100%.
