Why are power systems and communication systems increasingly coupled?

Therefore, power systems and communication systems are increasingly coupled. A power system supplies energy, and a communication system meets the demand for information exchange. A BS is the main intermediary between a communication network and a power network.

What is unique about this research based on hybrid energy storage?

The interesting or unique about this research compared to other research-based on hybrid energy storage is to apply hybrid energy storage in the poor grid and bad grid scenarios which are not discussed in another research before.

What is cooperation between communication operators and DSOs?

Figure 1 illustrates the concept of cooperation between communication operators and DSOs at the energy layer and communication layer. As shown in Figure 1, we consider a city-level distribution power system consisting of multiple MGs with DERs as well as battery storage systems. The DSO transmits electricity to the MG via power towers.

Do heterogeneous BS channel allocation strategies exist for different users?

Secondly, this study lacks of exploration regarding the heterogeneous BS channel allocation strategies for different users. In practice, users within a communication network often exhibit diverse requirements and characteristics, and their BS channel allocation needs may vary accordingly.

Is communication reliability a CR-restricted coordinated operation strategy?

In our previous work, 21 we introduced the modeling of communication reliability (CR) to capture the mutual impacts of cyber-physical systems, and proposed a CR-restricted coordinated operation strategy in active distribution networks.

What is the access mechanism between EMCs and BSS?

To describe the access mechanism between the EMCs and the BSs, we introduce an N b s × N m g connection matrix A, where N m g is the EMCs number and N b s is the number of power towers which is also the number of candidate locations for base stations. It is not necessary for all power towers to be selected as communication power sharing towers.
