“…Microgrids are smaller in size and posses a number of assets when compared with the existing power grids, and communication networks are becoming a vital part for their operation [18] as they may need to operate in two different modes: power-grid connected or standalone. Extensive research has been conducted and several methods are used for monitoring microgrids.…”

This paper presents the design and implementation of a Time‐Sensitive Networking (TSN) protocol‐enabled synchronized measurement‐based monitoring system for microgrids. The proposed approach synchronizes and prioritizes the communication nodes, allowing it to transfer ultra‐high three‐phase sampled data and phasors. TSN is achieved by Quality of Service (QoS) profile software library. This allows control, monitoring, traffic scheduling, and prioritization. Some buses in a microgrid may have priority over others; and this can be prioritized at the data level too, where a part of the information is more critical than the others. The advantages of utilizing the TSN protocol on a microgrid with the approach proposed are: it is an alternative to GPS technology, three‐phase data can be exchanged at much faster rate and data traffic in the network can be shaped with low packet loss, and low latency, in addition to providing interoperability through Data Distribution Services (DDS). These enhancements improve the communication reliability and enable distributed control, resulting in avoidance of any bottlenecks in the communications network. This proposed approach is implemented and demonstrated in a laboratory‐scale microgrid. The results obtained, verify low latency and high throughput of the entire system while meeting the TSN and QoS requirements.
