SUMMARY:RPG Seminar – A Hierarchical Predictive Control Approach for Wireless Electric Vehicle Energy Network with Integrated Microgrids Incorporating Degradation Costs
DESCRIPTION:Zoom Link:\nhttps://hku.zoom.us/j/2597624634?omn=91226274349 \nAbstract\nIntegrating the wireless electric vehicle energy network with microgrids benefits vehicle owners and grid operators. Yet\, economical and reliable operations for such combinations under renewable energy uncertainties remain examined. To address this\, achieving cost-effective and reliable performance\, a novel hierarchical predictive control approach is utilized. Its core innovation schedules optimal power dispatches for integrated microgrids using different time frames with upper-level control minimizing energy costs and battery energy storage systems’ degradation costs\, whereas lower-level control additionally lowers degradation costs. Moreover\, the approach inherently enhances system reliability by minimizing power fluctuations using control references from upper-level control and state variables feedback from lower-level control under renewable energy uncertainties. The unique cross-time-frame integration of this approach enables modeling and incorporating degradation costs to adapt costs associated with longer time frames into optimal power dispatches in shorter time frames\, reflecting the unique features of hybrid energy storage systems. Comparative studies reveal that various energy storage systems can be employed at different hierarchical control levels for tailored power distribution objectives. Effectiveness of the utilized approach is confirmed by comparing it with control benchmarks through its reduction of energy costs\, degradation costs\, and expected energy not served. \n  \nSpeaker\nMr. Ye Duan\nDepartment of Electrical and Electronic Engineering\nThe University of Hong Kong \nBiography of the Speaker\nYe DUAN received the B.Eng. degree in mechanical engineering and automation from Chongqing University\, Chongqing\, China\, and an M.Sc. degree in mechanical engineering and applied mechanics from The University of Pennsylvania\, Philadelphia\, USA\, in 2020 and 2022\, respectively. He is currently a PhD candidate in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Hong Kong. His main research interests include smart charging for electric vehicles\, energy management and optimization of microgrids\, and wireless power transfer. \nOrganiser\nProf. Yunhe Hou\nDepartment of Electrical and Electronic Engineering\, The University of Hong Kong \nAll are welcome.

SUMMARY:Seminar on Exploring the 6G Frontier: Prototyping Key Technologies at Yonsei
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nThis talk will begin with a brief introduction to Yonsei University and then present an overview of its recent research efforts in 6G and cloud-based wireless prototyping. Since 2011\, the Yonsei team has pioneered a range of hardware-oriented research topics\, including full-duplex radios\, millimeter-wave lens MIMO\, wireless VR and haptic communications\, reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS)\, magnetic MIMO\, and semantic communications. Building on these foundational works\, recent projects have expanded toward vRAN/ORAN architectures\, 6G/Cloud convergence\, and AI-empowered extremely large MIMO (AI-E-MIMO). The talk will conclude with a discussion of ongoing efforts and potential collaboration models for future 6G system development. \nSpeaker\nProf. Chan-Byoung CHAE\nPh.D.\, IEEE Fellow\, NAI Fellow\nUnderwood Distinguished Professor & Lee Youn Jae Fellow\,\nYonsei University\nMember of National Academy of Engineering of Korea\nFormer Editor-in-Chief\, IEEE Trans.
