论文摘要
聚合器已成为分布式可控载荷协调的关键工具。但是,要有效地使用,聚合器必须能够以(i)足够简洁的方式传达其控制负载的可用柔韧性,以构成数百甚至数千个负载,以及(ii)足以使系统操作员向私人构建的私有物品,例如,私有构建的私有物品,以使系统的运行量达到最佳,例如,该系统的运转范围足以使系统运行量达到数百甚至数千个负载,例如,私有的物品,例如,私有构建的目标,例如,私有构建的范围,例如,私有的物品是最佳的,例如负载,例如满足特定的负载需求。在本文中,我们介绍了基于熵的最大化的实时灵活性反馈信号的设计。该设计提供了一个简洁而有用的信号,系统运营商可以使用该信号来执行在线成本最小化和实时容量估计,同时可以满足负载的私人约束。除了得出设计的分析性能外,我们还使用自适应电动汽车充电网络的数据集说明了设计的有效性。
Aggregators have emerged as crucial tools for the coordination of distributed, controllable loads. However, to be used effectively, aggregators must be able to communicate the available flexibility of the loads they control to the system operator in a manner that is both (i) concise enough to be scalable to aggregators governing hundreds or even thousands of loads and (ii) informative enough to allow the system operator to send control signals to the aggregator that lead to optimization of system-level objectives, such as cost minimization, and do not violate private constraints of the loads, such as satisfying specific load demands. In this paper, we present the design of a real-time flexibility feedback signal based on maximization of entropy. The design provides a concise and informative signal that can be used by the system operator to perform online cost minimization and real-time capacity estimation, while provably satisfying the private constraints of the loads. In addition to deriving analytic properties of the design, we illustrate the effectiveness of the design using a dataset from an adaptive electric vehicle charging network.
