Demand Dispatch with Heterogeneous Intelligent Loads
Joel Mathias, Ana Bušić, Sean Meyn
A distributed control architecture is presented that is intended to make a collection of heterogeneous loads appear to the grid operator as a nearly perfect battery. Local control…
Estimation and Control of Quality of Service in Demand Dispatch
Yue Chen, Ana Bušić, Sean Meyn
It is now well known that flexibility of energy consumption can be harnessed for the purposes of grid-level ancillary services. In particular, through distributed control of a coll…
Ordinary Differential Equation Methods For Markov Decision Processes and Application to Kullback-Leibler Control Cost
Ana Bušić, Sean Meyn
A new approach to computation of optimal policies for MDP (Markov decision process) models is introduced. The main idea is to solve not one, but an entire family of MDPs, parameter…
Ergodic Theory for Controlled Markov Chains with Stationary Inputs
Yue Chen, Ana Bušić, Sean Meyn
Consider a stochastic process on a finite state space . It is conditionally Markov, given a real-valued `input process' . This is assu…
Distributed Randomized Control for Demand Dispatch
Ana Bušić, Sean Meyn
The paper concerns design of control systems for Demand Dispatch to obtain ancillary services to the power grid by harnessing inherent flexibility in many loads. The role of "local…
