Abstract
This article investigates the distributed online optimization problem over a multi-agent network subject to local set constraints and coupled inequality constraints, which has a lot of applications in many areas, such as wireless sensor networks, power systems, and plug-in electric vehicles. In this problem, the cost function at each time step is the sum of local cost functions with each of them being gradually revealed to its corresponding agent, and meanwhile only local functions in coupled inequality constraints are accessible to each agent. To address this problem, a modified primal-dual algorithm, called distributed online primal-dual push-sum algorithm, is developed in this article, which does not rest on any assumption on parameter boundedness and is applicable to unbalanced networks. It is shown that the proposed algorithm is sublinear for both the dynamic regret and the violation of coupled inequality constraints. Finally, the theoretical results are supported by a simulation example.
