The proposed Tutorial will firstly introduce the state-of-the-art regarding the configuration of the power systems implemented for supplying the Communication Systems. In particular, standards, main technical specifications, constraints and architectures of power electronic conversion systems used for the energy conversion will be presented. Then the activity will focus on the need of increasing the distribution of communication systems in order to increase the telecommunication coverage for the expected increase of demand associated to development of IoT paradigm. In this framework, the concept of microgrid and islanded microgrid will be presented with reference to the actual state-of-the-art and considering the integration of fossil and renewable energy sources. In particular, the different energy storage systems used in Communication Systems will be presented and briefly described, focusing on their main features, model, cost and ageing. Particular attention will be then devoted to Energy Management and Conversion Systems considering specific configurations recently proposed by the speakers in order to increase the reliability and the power quality. Finally, some practical examples will be presented, after which concluding remarks and a discussion on the tutorial topics will occur.

Abstract
The proposed Tutorial will firstly introduce the state-of-the-art regarding the configuration of the power systems implemented for supplying the Communication Systems. In particular, standards, main technical specifications, constraints and architectures of power electronic conversion systems used for the energy conversion will be presented. Then the activity will focus on the need of increasing the distribution of communication systems in order to increase the telecommunication coverage for the expected increase of demand associated to development of IoT paradigm. In this framework, the concept of microgrid and islanded microgrid will be presented with reference to the actual state-of-the-art and considering the integration of fossil and renewable energy sources. In particular, the different energy storage systems used in Communication Systems will be presented and briefly described, focusing on their main features, model, cost and ageing. Particular attention will be then devoted to Energy Management and Conversion Systems considering specific configurations recently proposed by the speakers in order to increase the reliability and the power quality. Finally, some practical examples will be presented, after which concluding remarks and a discussion on the tutorial topics will occur.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
