Modeling Method for the Coupling Relations of Microgrid Cyber-Physical Systems Driven by Hybrid Spatiotemporal Events

Abstract

The essence of the microgrid cyber-physical system (CPS) lies in the cyclical conversion of information flow and energy flow. Most of the existing coupling models are modeled with static networks and interface structures, in which the closed-loop data flow characteristic is not fully considered. It is difficult for these models to accurately describe spatiotemporal deduction processes, such as microgrid CPS attack identification, risk propagation, safety assessment, defense control, and cascading failure. To address this problem, a modeling method for the coupling relations of microgrid CPS driven by hybrid spatiotemporal events is proposed in the present work. First, according to the topological correlation and coupling logic of the microgrid CPS, the cyclical conversion mechanism of information flow and energy flow is analyzed, and a microgrid CPS architecture with multi-agents as the core is constructed. Next, the spatiotemporal evolution characteristic of the CPS is described by hybrid automata, and the task coordination mechanism of the multi-agent CPS terminal is designed. On this basis, a discrete-continuous correlation and terminal structure characteristic representation method of the CPS based on heterogeneous multi-groups are then proposed. Finally, four spatiotemporal events, namely state perception, network communication, intelligent decision-making, and action control, are defined. Considering the constraints of the temporal conversion of information flow and energy flow, a microgrid CPS coupling model is established, the effectiveness of which is verified by simulating false data injection attack (FDIA) scenarios.INDEX TERMS Microgrid cyber-physical systems, spatiotemporal event-driven, multi-agent, coupling modeling, CPS terminal.

Risk Assessment Method of Power Communication Network Based on Gray Cloud Theory and Matter-Element Extension Model Coupling

“…Since the proposal of the risk assessment theory of the power communication network, extensive research has been conducted by relevant researchers. The evaluation methods primarily consist of approaches based on uncertainty analysis theory [1][2][3][4],reliability theory [5][6][7][8][9], and artificial intelligence algorithms [10][11][12][13]. In recent years, the uncertainty analysis theory-based evaluation method has been widely applied in power quality assessment [14][15][16], power safety risk assessment [17,18], power system equipment condition assessment [19][20][21][22], and power grid operation risk assessment [23][24][25].…”

A novel evidence combination method based on stochastic approach for link-structure analysis algorithm and Lance-Williams distance

“…The theory uses upper and lower probabilities to deal with uncertainty in the problem, and the D-S combination rule can fuse human predictions, sensor transmitted data, and classifier outputs. Currently, the D-S evidence theory has been widely used in the areas of fault diagnosis ( Ding, Hou & Ding, 2019 ; Bo et al, 2021 ), risk assessment ( Zhang et al, 2009 ), military commands ( Xu et al, 2018 ), legal case analysis, medical diagnosis, and target identification.…”
