A Distributed Algorithm for Economic Dispatch in Prescribed Time

摘要

This paper presents a novel algorithm to solve the economic dispatch problem, which guarantees to achieve the optimal dispatch values within a prescribed time in a distributed fashion. That is, the convergence time for the proposed algorithm can be set by the designer just under the connected communication topology condition. The proposed algorithm has the potential application in real-time decision making and control. Several examples are discussed and tested to validate the effectiveness and the correctness of the proposed algorithm.
