POWER MANAGEMENT CONTROL SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a system controller configured to determine an allocation of power during a first time period for each of a plurality of subsystems; and
a subsystem controller communicatively coupled to the system controller, the subsystem controller associated with a device, the subsystem controller configured to;
receive power allocation data indicating the allocation of power for the device from the system controller;
receive operation request data indicating a request to operate the device;
model operation of the device for a second time period based on the power allocation data, the operation request data, and a cost-utility function associated with the device to produce a modeled operation of the device; and
communicate, to the system controller, prior to the second time period, projected power demand data associated with the modeled operation of the device during the second time period.

Abstract
A system to control a power distribution system includes a system controller configured to determine an allocation of power during a first time period for each of a plurality of subsystems. The system also includes a subsystem controller communicatively coupled to the system controller. The subsystem controller is associated with a device and configured to receive power allocation data indicating the allocation of power for the device from the system controller. The subsystem controller is further configured to receive operation request data indicating a request to operate the device and produce a model operation of the device for a second time period based on the power allocation data, the operation request data, and a cost-utility function associated with the device. The subsystem controller is also configured to communicate, to the system controller, projected power demand data associated with the modeled operation of the device during the second time period.

10. A method comprising:
-
determining an allocation of power for each of a plurality of subsystems, each of the plurality of subsystems associated with at least one corresponding device; generating power allocation data indicating the allocation of power for a particular subsystem of the plurality of subsystems; receiving operation request data indicating a request to operate a device of the particular subsystem; modeling operation of the device based on the power allocation data, the operation request data, and a cost-utility function associated with the device to produce a modeled operation of the device; and identifying projected power demand data associated with the modeled operation of the device. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
