A New Multi-agent Based Load Demand Management for Zonal MVDC Ship Board Power System

Abstract

The main objective of this project is to maintain voltage stability and dispatching uninterrupted power to ship Board power System(SPS)  The heterogeneous multi-agent system model we formulated for a combination of DC-DC converters with different types and diverse voltage levels is more consistent with the actual power system and each converter can be controlled individually according to load ratings and priorities;  The modified navigational feedback with Ant colony algorithm optimization function of confining the lower and upper bound of agents can significantly improve the control effect of the cooperative control protocol.
