To improve the predictive ability in trajectory of large unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and the calculation performance in complicated circumstances with mixed airspace, multiple aircraft types, and joint operations, the concept of phased trajectory deviation (PTD) is introduced and a corresponding minimal interval algorithm (PTD-MI) is set up. This algorithm is capable of deriving the minimal interval between various aircraft types according to the crosswind impacts and the UAV characteristics at different flight phases and thus achieves the effective safety evaluation in airspace operation. To demonstrate the rationality and generality of the proposed algorithm, several simulation experiments are conducted. Based on the experimental results, flight procedure protection area is plotted by PTD-MI algorithm and compared with that generated by Ground-Based Augmentation System (GBAS). Results indicate that the proposed algorithm is capable of deriving a more scientific basis for airspace assignment and outperform GBAS in dealing with wide-area space problems. And, compared with GBAS, PTD-MI algorithm shows a more stable calculation performance and is easier to output the results. PTD-MI algorithm is proposed under the flight safety regulation designed by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and designed to provide effective technical supports for the safe and normal operations of aircrafts.

Very short-term load demand forecasters are essential for power systems’ decision makers in real-time dispatching. These tools allow traditional network operators to maintain power systems’ safety and stability and provide customers energy with high reliability. Although research has traditionally focused on developing point forecasters, these tools do not provide complete information because they do not estimate the deviation between actual and predicted values. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to develop a very short-term probabilistic prediction interval forecaster to reduce decision makers’ uncertainty by computing the predicted value’s upper and lower bounds. The proposed forecaster combines an artificial intelligence-based point forecaster with a probabilistic prediction interval algorithm. First, the point forecaster predicts energy demand in the next 15 min and then the prediction interval algorithm calculates the upper and lower bounds with the user’s chosen confidence level. To examine the reliability of proposed forecaster model and resulting interval sharpness, different error metrics, such as prediction interval coverage percentage and a skill score, are computed for 95, 90, and 85% confidence intervals. Results show that the prediction interval coverage percentage is higher than the confidence level in each analysis, which means that the proposed model is valid for practical applications.

One of the advantages of a netted airborne radar system (NARS) is escaping interception of the passive detection system (PDS) while tracking a target. A significant tactic to realize tracking without PDS interception is to study the low probability of interception (LPI) time of NARS. Firstly, this paper analyses the power, frequency, and platform interception probabilities of a combined PDS consisting of a radar-warning receiver (RWR) and an electronic support measurement (ESM). Secondly, this paper takes interactive multiple models (IMM) to describe the target tracking process and introduces a binary hypothesis test for chi square as well as noncentralized chi square distributions as a detection criterion of NARS during target tracking after the design of adaptive dwell time and the maximum illumination interval algorithm. Finally, based on experiential moving platform interception probabilities of a RWR and an ESM, a simplified math model is presented to estimate LPI time of NARS when the parameters are partially known. Simulations illustrate that the simultaneous management of radiation power and time is crucial for NARS against combined PDS interception.

With the large-scale centralized PV clusters connected to grid, the grid power flow has certain randomness. Considering the fluctuation of PV output, an improved Krawczyk-Moore algorithm in a mixed coordinate system is proposed to solve the uncertain power flow problem. Firstly, aiming at the special structure of a centralized PV cluster with only load node and no generator node, this paper proposes a power flow calculation in the mixed power flow coordinate, and then the Krawczyk-Moore operator is used to combine interval and affine arithmetic to overcome the shortcoming of over-conservative interval algorithm. Finally, the voltage operating condition under different volatility and different partial shading conditions is studied through the simulation of a practical example, and the out-of-limit voltage problem inside the centralized PV cluster is analyzed. Meanwhile, the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified.
