Contractive interference functions introduced by Feyzmahdavian et al. is the newest approach in the analysis and design of distributed power control laws. This approach can be extended to several cases of distributed power control. One of…
Inverter-interfaced microgrids differ from the traditional power systems due to their lack of inertia. Vanishing timescale separation between voltage and frequency dynamics makes it critical that faster-timescale stabilizing control laws…
In this paper, we introduce the general concept of coded power control (CPC) in a particular setting of the interference channel. Roughly, the idea of CPC consists in embedding information (about a random state) into the transmit power…
We introduce a new class of abstract structures, which we call generalized ultrametric semilattices, and in which the meet operation of the semilattice coexists with a generalized distance function in a tightly coordinated way. We prove a…

In any wireless communication environment in which a transmitter creates interference to the others, a system of non-linear equations arises. Its form (for 2 terminals) is p1=g1(p2;a1) and p2=g2(p1;a2), with p1, p2 power levels; a1, a2…

Asynchronous iterative methods tolerate straggling processors by allowing workers to proceed with stale data, but at a cost: the iterates become inconsistent, potentially degrading convergence. We investigate whether convergence…

One of the goals of this paper is to contribute to finding distributed power control strategies which exploit efficiently the information available about the global channel state; it may be local or noisy. A suited way of measuring the…
This paper introduces a predictive control barrier function (PCBF) framework for enforcing state constraints in discrete-time systems with unknown relative degree, which can be caused by input delays or unmodeled input dynamics. Existing…
Classical approaches for asymptotic convergence to the global average in a distributed fashion typically assume timely and reliable exchange of information between neighboring components of a given multi-component system. These assumptions…
