Power-Hardware-in-the-Loop Interfaces for Inverter-Based Microgrid Experiments Including Transitions
Microgrids continue to proliferate, particularly those that rely on inverter-based resources as the microgrid's voltage and frequency leader. Hardware-in-the-loop simulations can de-risk microgrid deployments, and therefore we need power hardware-in-the-loop (PHIL) interfaces for ...
