Preface to ”Communications in Microgrids”
The microgrid, as a small-scale power system, is expected to continue to grow with
smartness, providing increased reliability and facilitating effective integration of distributed
generators and energy storage devices. These new capabilities are made possible by integrating
advanced control methods (e.g., model predictive control, nonlinear control) and advanced
communicationtechnologies(e.g.,homeareanetworks,fieldareanetworksandwideareanetworks).
The combination of advanced control methods and advanced communication technologies are
key enablers for various future microgrid applications, such as demand response, advanced
meteringinfrastructure(AMI),energystorageintegration,electricvehicle(EV)chargingandseamless
integrationofrenewableenergysources.
Thisbookintroducestheadvancedcontrolandcommunicationmethodsformicrogrids,which
includes 5 chapters. In chapter 1, a compound controller is designed for a buck converter based
ondisturbanceobserver(DO)andnonsingularterminalslidingmode(TSM).Inchapter2,amodel
