Abstract |
The microgrid can get energy from distributed energy resources. Also, it requires communication with DMS, a distribution management system that manages MGMS. The data model and protocol for communication with the field devices of the microgrid are already defined and used as standard, but the external communication of the microgrid is not precisely defined. This paper proposes that the use of DDS middle ware for internal and external communication of microgrid, and developed multi-platform using OpenDDS API. We also analyzed IEC 61850, an international standard for power automation to ensure interoperability with other microgrids in a public network environment using the developed multi-platform. In order to verify the performance and practical feasibility of the multi-platform, we implemented communication ability of multi-platform. Finally, we have a conclusion about which the DDS QoS setting suitable for microgrid communication on a distributed environment. |
