Distributed model predictive control algorithm based on event-trigger

In order to reduce the heavy communication burden of cooperative distributed model predictive control (DMPC), A DMPC algorithm based on event-trigger is proposed to balancing the control performance and communication burden through optimizing the interconnection structure of subsystems. An event-trigger using the system Lyapunov function is constructed to avoid solving the introduced MINLP optimization directly, the optimal interconnection structure will be updated only when the event-trigger is triggered. The feasibility of the proposed algorithm in system performance and communication burden decrease is validated by the load frequency control (LFC) problem simulation of interconnected power system.
