The Boolean Microgrid (BM) emulates the Internet by supplying discrete power and discrete data over a network link that follows Boolean logic and is not continuous as in a conventional 60-Hz-ac or dc microgrid. BM is thus a highly integrated cyber-physical system (CPS) that features the convergence of control, communication and the physical plant. BMs realization poses the following research challenges that we plan to address: a) what is the most efficient, economic, power-dense, and reliable way of integrating the distributed energy sources and loads to the BM, and the BM to the utility grid, using power-electronic interfaces for seamless and on-demand distributed power delivery? b) what is the control-communication mechanism that optimizes BM nodal and network control performances under conditions of varying power generation and load demand and communication-network throughput and reliability? Our unique approaches to address these research challenges will encompass novel mechanisms based on high-frequency-link power conversion, dynamic-pricing based optimal network capacity and resource utilization, event-triggered sampling and communication, and optimal switching-sequence control.BM has the potential to influence next-generation systems including smart grid, vehicular microgrid, electric ships, military microgrid, electric aircraft, telecommunication systems, and residential, commercial, and critical-infrastructure (e.g., hospital) power systems. On the educational front, the proposed project will provide graduate- and post-graduate-level education to four researchers. Further, multiple undergraduate (including minority) students and middle-school students will be provided research/educational opportunities. The results of the research will be integrated into undergraduate and graduate courses at the collaborating universities including a dedicated course on CPS.

布尔微电网(BM)通过在遵循布尔逻辑且不像传统的60赫兹交流或直流微电网中那样连续的网络链路上提供离散功率和离散数据来模拟互联网。因此，BM是一个高度集成的网络物理系统(CPS)，其特点是控制、通信和物理工厂的融合。BMS的实现带来了我们计划解决的以下研究挑战：a)将分布式能源和负载集成到BM，并将BM集成到公用电网，使用电力-电子接口无缝和按需提供分布式电力，最有效、最经济、最高功率和最可靠的方式是什么？B)在不同的发电和负荷需求以及通信网络吞吐量和可靠性的条件下，优化黑石节点和网络控制性能的控制通信机制是什么？我们应对这些研究挑战的独特方法将包括基于高频链路功率转换的新机制、基于动态定价的最优网络容量和资源利用、事件触发采样和通信以及最优开关顺序控制。BM具有影响下一代系统的潜力，包括智能电网、车载微电网、电力船舶、军用微电网、电动飞机、电信系统以及住宅、商业和关键基础设施(如医院)电力系统。在教育方面，拟议的项目将为四名研究人员提供研究生和研究生教育。此外，还将为多名本科生(包括少数族裔)和中学生提供研究/教育机会。研究结果将纳入合作大学的本科生和研究生课程，包括关于CPS的专门课程。
