Special Issue on "Communications and Networking for Smart Grid: Technology
and Practice"
The drive for improved power system efficiency, stability and flexibility
has served as a catalyst for Smart Grid research and development, so the
communications networks in Smart Grid must facilitate the wide-scale
utilization of distributed and renewable energy sources, real-time
granular system health measurement, rapid outage detection, the provision
of real-time pricing information to consumers, and the deployment of
demand response schemes which incorporate both industrial and home users.
However, many open issues in communications and networking need to be
addressed by researchers.
This special issue seeks submissions from academia and industry presenting
novel research on all theoretical and practical aspects of communication
systems for smart grid, as well as case studies and implementation
experiences. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Protocol interoperability (e.g., IP, ANSI C12.22, DNP3)
• QoS Architectures
• Cyber and Physical Security and Privacy
• Scalability
• Communication for distributed and renewable generation
• Home Area Networking (Zigbee, OpenHAN, etc.), Wireless Mesh networking,
and Neighborhood Area Networks
• Wireless communication architectures for Advanced Metering
Infrastructure (AMI)
• Real-time pricing and demand response
• Smart Grid Network Management
• SCADA ,Wide Area Monitoring, protection, control and automation
messaging protocols and systems
• Green routing and switching protocols
• Real-time fault detection, isolation and recovery, real-time load
balancing, granular system health monitoring, self-healing
• Time synchronization for Smart Grid devices
• Transport and Application layer protocols and mechanisms for Smart Grid
information dissemination applications (e.g., SCTP)
• Middleware for end to end service guarantees
• Testbed and deployment
