ABSTRACT

In the execution of control tasks, the conventional principle is based on time-triggered control in the sense that the control task is executed in a periodic manner, and it will bring collision or channel congestion or larger time delays in the network due to the limited communication bandwidth. The working principle based on event-triggered control is to decide whether or not to transmit control signals in term of a given threshold. This chapter considers the renewable energy sources as the distributed connection to the common bus in a microgrid. In order to reduce data communication, it investigates centralized event-triggered control, decentralized event-triggered control, and distributed event-triggered control. The chapter proposes some new results for solving the stability analysis and control synthesis problems. In order to implement the event-triggered fuzzy controller, it is assumed that subsystems transmit its measurements through a networked channel, and propose an event-triggered solution.
