In this paper, we analyze the scattering of an incident plane wave on a space-time metal slab in the presence of dispersion. Frequency dispersion is taken into account here by means of the Drude model. Analytical results, obtained via first-principle calculations, are in good agreement with in-house finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) computations.

With the deep integration of cyber tools, control algorithms are increasingly employed in cyber-physical energy systems to enhance management, cost efficiency, and robustness. Effective demand load management is crucial in cyber-physical energy systems as it directly impacts operational costs. Failure to adequately manage spiky or seasonal demand loads can lead to significant expenses on monthly utility bills. In this study, we propose AMPAMOD, a randomized online algorithm with machine-learned advice, to optimize battery operations and mitigate highly dynamic peak loads. AMPAMOD utilizes limited advice from machine learning algorithms to guide our online algorithm and ensure cost-effective peak load management. The theoretical analysis shows that our solution has minimal advice complexity, a linear computational cost, and an improved competitive ratio. Finally, we conduct extensive trace-driven experiments on real-world datasets. AMPAMOD achieves a peak shaving success rate of over 90%, outperforming baselines by at least 50%. These experimental results confirm theoretical findings and demonstrate the potential of AMPAMOD.

Low-earth-orbit satellite networks (LSNs) offer an enhanced global connectivity and a wide range of applications such as disaster response and military operations, among others. Each specific application can be represented by a service function chain (SFC) in which each function is considered as a task in the application. Our objective is to optimize the long-term system performance by minimizing the average end-to-end delay of SFC deployments in LSNs. To achieve this, we formulate a dynamic programming (DP) problem to derive an optimal placement policy. To overcome the computational intractability, the need for statistical knowledge of SFC requests, and centralized decision-making challenges, we present a multi-agent Q-learning approach where satellites act as independent agents. To facilitate performance convergence in non-stationary agents' environments, we let agents to collaborate by sharing designated learning parameters. In addition, agents update their Q-tables via two distinct rules depending on selected actions. Extensive experimentation shows that our approach achieves convergence and performance relatively close to the optimum obtained by solving the formulated DP equation.

Many waveform co-design studies demonstrate theoretical performance enhancements but rarely provide a clear path toward implementing a tractable solution. To address this limitation, we developed a waveform co-design technique to maximize the joint radar-communications network's joint per-formance and a computationally tractable method for optimizing it. This waveform co-design technique is based on the theory of partially-observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs), which we solve using an approximate dynamic programming approach called nominal belief-state optimization (NBO). The POMDP framework's natural look-ahead feature allows us to trade between the short-term and long-term performance of both radar and communications tasks, which allows it to adapt to changes in system requirements and environmental conditions. Using the WISCANet over-the-air experimental radio testbed, we implement a simple joint radar-communications system and demonstrate this waveform design and optimization technique in a hardware-in-the-loop over-the-air demonstration. We further extend the problem by proposing a real-time waveform optimization solution using a Kalman Filter in a dynamic environment.
