This paper reviews the overall architecture of the Microgrid concept, and presents details associated with the tieline control features. Laboratory results from exercising the tieline controls in a hardware-in-the-loop environment are also presented.The controls are implemented with Matlab/Simulink software running on a PC, using data provided from a digital relay through the IEC 61850 GOOSE/OPC data transfer mechanism.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
