Active Management of Distributed Generation based on Component Thermal Properties
Power flows within distribution networks are expected to become increasingly congested with the proliferation of distributed generation (DG) from renewable energy resources. Consequently, the size, energy penetration and ultimately the revenue stream of DG schemes may be limited in the future. This …

Optimal resource sharing and spectrum leasing in energy efficient relay-assisted networks
Assuming a bidirectional relay assisted network, we first study the problem of optimal resource sharing between two transceiver pairs. One of the pairs, referred to as the primary pair, owns the spectral resources while the other pair, called the secondary pair, is considered to own the relay …

A Heuristic Nonlinear Constructive Method for Electric Power Distribution System Reconfiguration
The electric power distribution system usually operates a radial configuration, with tie switches between circuits to provide alternate feeds. The losses would be minimized if all switches were closed, but this is not done because it complicates the system's protection against overcurrents. …
