Description

FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a field of cyber-physical power systems, and more particularly to a stability criterion for time-delay of cyber-physical power systems under distributed control.

BACKGROUND

Modern power systems have an in-depth interdependence between a cyber side and a physical side, and have become typical cyber-physical systems (CPS). The cyber-physical systems are complex systems constructing physical spaces and cyber spaces which are mapped each other and efficiently cooperated through advanced technologies such as perception, calculation, communication and control. In the field of smart grid technologies, the modern smart grid has been widely regarded as a kind of cyber-physical power systems due to physical power systems relying on many advanced information technology manners.

An influence of time-delays on the cyber-physical power systems cannot be ignored more and more. Dispatchers of the modern power systems have put forward extremely high requirements of time-delay on various optimized scheduling and control services. In particular, stability of the systems may be affected due to commands not being issued timely caused by the time-delay of the control services being too long. Therefore, there have been many methods to study a stability criterion of time-delay power systems under centralized control. With developments of distributed power sources, application prospects of various kinds of distributed architectures, such as distributed frequency control, voltage control in the cyber-physical power systems are becoming wider and wider. Therefore, the cyber-physical power systems under distributed control may be regarded as a kind of distributed cyber-physical power systems. Due to high dependence on the cyber systems, the stability of the distributed cyber-physical power systems has also become a key issue for distributed applications. Existing technical methods for a stability criterion for time-delay are mainly oriented to centralized cyber-physical power systems, whose time delays are relatively single (for example, Rekasius substitution is used to perform the stability criterion for the cyber-physical power systems under centralized/local time-delay power system stabilizers), but a criterion method for the distributed cyber-physical power systems is still blank. Therefore, the existing methods are not enough to analyze the stability for time-delay of the cyber-physical power systems under distributed control.

SUMMARY

The present disclosure seeks to solve at least one of the problems existing in the related art, and provides a stability criterion for time-delay of cyber-physical power systems under distributed control. The present disclosure is oriented to the stability for time-delay of the cyber-physical power systems under distributed control, and determines whether the cyber-physical power systems will be unstable under a specific time-delay. The method of the present disclosure may be applied to architecture design, communication networking and formulation of communication requirements of the power system under distributed control, and may clarify an influence of the distributed control on the stability of the cyber-physical power systems under different time-delays.
