Power system emergency control is generally regarded as the last safety net for grid security and resiliency. Existing emergency control schemes are usually designed off-line based on either the conceived "worst" case scenario or a few…

Distributed generation and remotely controlled switches have emerged as important technologies to improve the resiliency of distribution grids against extreme weather-related disturbances. Therefore it becomes impor- tant to study how best…

The increasing extreme weather events poses unprecedented challenges on power system operation because of their uncertain and sequential impacts on power systems. This paper proposes the concept of an extended steady-state security region…

For unforeseen natural disasters, such as earthquakes, hurricanes, and floods, etc., the traditional communication infrastructure is unavailable or seriously disrupted along with persistent secondary disasters. Under such circumstances, it…

Networking of microgrids can provide the operational flexibility needed for the increasing number of DERs deployed at the distribution level and supporting end-use demand when there is loss of the bulk power system. But, networked…

Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) assisted unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems provide a new paradigm for reconfigurable and flexible wireless communications. To enable more energy efficient and spectrum efficient IRS assisted UAV…

The natural or man-made disaster demands an efficient communication and coordination among first responders to save life and other community resources. Normally, the traditional communication infrastructures such as land line or cellular…

This paper presents a novel modified Viterbi algorithm to identify the optimal distribution system restoration plan for improving the grid resiliency. In the proposed algorithm, the switching operations performed for system restoration are…

Safety and efficiency applications in vehicular networks rely on the exchange of periodic messages between vehicles. These messages contain position, speed, heading, and other vital information that makes the vehicles aware of their…

Communication infrastructure is often severely disrupted in post-disaster areas, which interrupts communications and impedes rescue. Recently, the technology of reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-equipped-UAV has been investigated as…

Effective communication for emergency vehicles - such as ambulances and fire trucks - is essential to support their operations in various traffic and environmental conditions. In this context, this paper investigates a vehicular…

Distributed energy resources (DERs) installed at electric distribution networks create different opportunities and challenges for the distribution system operator (DSO). By increasing the penetration level of DERs, the impacts of these…
