Pulsed power network based on decentralized intelligence for reliable and low loss electrical power distribution

摘要

Pulsed power network is proposed for reliable and low loss electrical power distribution among various type of power sources and consumers. The proposed scheme is a derivative of power packet network so far investigated that has affinity with dispersion type power sources and has manageability of energy coloring in the process of power distribution. In addition to these advantages, the proposed scheme has system reliability and low loss property because of its intelligent operation performed by individual nodes and direct relaying by power routers. In the proposed scheme, power transmission is decomposed into a series of pulses placed at specified power slots in continuous time frames that are synchronized over the network. The power slots are pre-reserved based on information exchanges among neighboring nodes following inherent protocol of the proposed scheme. Because of this power slot reservation based on decentralized intelligence, power pulses are directly transmitted from various power sources to consumers with low power dissipation even though a partial failure occurs in the network. The network performance of the proposed scheme is simulated to confirm the protocol for the power slot reservation.
