The integration of existing electrical infrastructure with an information and communication network is an inherent and significant need for microgrid classification and operation in this case. Microgrid technology’s most important features: 1) Full duplex communication;2) Advanced metering infrastructure;3) Renewable and energy resource integration;4) Distribution automation and complete monitoring, as well as overall power system control. A microgrid’s communication infrastructure is made up of several hierarchical communication networks. Microgrid applications can frequently be found in numerous aspects of energy consumption. Because it provides a spontaneous communicational network, the Internet of Things plays a fundamental and crucial role in Microgrid infrastructure.
