A von Neumann Alternating Method for Finding Common Solutions to Variational Inequalities
Modifying von Neumann's alternating projections algorithm, we obtain an
alternating method for solving the recently introduced Common Solutions to
Variational Inequalities Problem (CSVIP). For simplicity, we mainly confine our
attention to the two-set CSVIP, which entails finding common solutions to two
unrelated variational inequalities in Hilbert space.Comment: Nonlinear Analysis Series A: Theory, Methods & Applications, accepted

Joint Power Splitting and Secure Beamforming Design in the Wireless-powered Untrusted Relay Networks
In this work, we maximize the secrecy rate of the wireless-powered untrusted
relay network by jointly designing power splitting (PS) ratio and relay
beamforming with the proposed global optimal algorithm (GOA) and local optimal
algorithm (LOA). Different from the literature, artificial noise (AN) sent by
the destination not only degrades the channel condition of the eavesdropper to
improve the secrecy rate, but also becomes a new source of energy powering the
untrusted relay based on PS. Hence, it is of high economic benefits and
efficiency to take advantage of AN compared with the literature. Simulation
results show that LOA can achieve satisfactory secrecy rate performance
compared with that of GOA, but with less computation time.Comment: Submitted to GlobeCom201
Distributed Apportioning in a Power Network for providing Demand Response Services
Greater penetration of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) in power networks
requires coordination strategies that allow for self-adjustment of
contributions in a network of DERs, owing to variability in generation and
demand. In this article, a distributed scheme is proposed that enables a DER in
a network to arrive at viable power reference commands that satisfies the DERs
local constraints on its generation and loads it has to service, while, the
aggregated behavior of multiple DERs in the network and their respective loads
meet the ancillary services demanded by the grid. The Net-load Management
system for a single unit is referred to as the Local Inverter System (LIS) in
this article . A distinguishing feature of the proposed consensus based
solution is the distributed finite time termination of the algorithm that
allows each LIS unit in the network to determine power reference commands in
the presence of communication delays in a distributed manner. The proposed
scheme allows prioritization of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in the network
and also enables auto-adjustment of contributions from LIS units with lower
priority resources (non-RES). The methods are validated using
hardware-in-the-loop simulations with Raspberry PI devices as distributed
control units, implementing the proposed distributed algorithm and responsible
for determining and dispatching realtime power reference commands to simulated
power electronics interface emulating LIS units for demand response.Comment: 7 pages, 11 Figures, IEEE International Conference on Smart Grid
