N2 - Microgrids (MGs) have gained popularity in various scenarios, such as maritime, space, and terrestrial applications. In all of these scenarios, machine-to-machine (M2M) communication is crucial for the management and control of MGs. However, because of the diverse working conditions of different MG types, they may require different communication systems with specific features and characteristics. This article aims to address these issues by providing an overview of appropriate M2M links for different MG types. The article also discusses the unique features of each MG type, their vulnerability to cyberattacks, and their applicability in different scenarios. The information presented in this article can be valuable for researchers, engineers, and decision makers working on MG projects in different fields.
