Neuromorphic Event-Driven Semantic Communication in Microgrids (2402.18390v1)

Published 28 Feb 2024 in cs.ET, cs.AI, cs.NE, cs.SY, and eess.SY

Abstract: Synergies between advanced communications, computing and artificial intelligence are unraveling new directions of coordinated operation and resiliency in microgrids. On one hand, coordination among sources is facilitated by distributed, privacy-minded processing at multiple locations, whereas on the other hand, it also creates exogenous data arrival paths for adversaries that can lead to cyber-physical attacks amongst other reliability issues in the communication layer. This long-standing problem necessitates new intrinsic ways of exchanging information between converters through power lines to optimize the system's control performance. Going beyond the existing power and data co-transfer technologies that are limited by efficiency and scalability concerns, this paper proposes neuromorphic learning to implant communicative features using spiking neural networks (SNNs) at each node, which is trained collaboratively in an online manner simply using the power exchanges between the nodes. As opposed to the conventional neuromorphic sensors that operate with spiking signals, we employ an event-driven selective process to collect sparse data for training of SNNs. Finally, its multi-fold effectiveness and reliable performance is validated under simulation conditions with different microgrid topologies and components to establish a new direction in the sense-actuate-compute cycle for power electronic dominated grids and microgrids.
