Agent Solutions for Navy Shipboard Power Systems
Kai Huang, Sanjeev Kumar Srivastava, David A. Cartes, Liu Li · 2007
It is envisioned that in the future a naval electric ship should be operated with minimum number of human operators, while having the intelligence to automatically reconfigure its power plant under various scenarios. This should be accomplished with less response time and adequate configurations when compared to the systems operated by humans. Multi agent systems have been shown as a promising technology to achieve this goal. In this paper, the authors present a study of various agent systems being developed for Navy shipboard power systems. A particular focus is given on agent based solutions for fault detection and reconfiguration of a shipboard power system. Test scenarios are presented for each agent based solution.
