Traditional power grids are currently being transformed into smart grids (SGs). SGs feature
multi-way communication among energy generation, transmission, distribution, and usage …

This paper discusses key aspects of the four most popular industrial wireless sensor network
standards: ZigBee, WirelessHART, ISA100. 11a, and WIA-PA. The detailed design and …

Traditional electrical power grids are transitioning from centralised operation with
unidirectional energy and information flows (from the generation domain to customers) to …

Progress in Microgrid (MG) research has evolved the MG concept from classical, purely MG
power networks to more advanced power and communications networks. The …

The cognitive radio-based sensor network (CRSN) is envisioned as a strong driver in the
development of modern power system smart grids (SGs). This can address the spectrum …

The existing power grid is going through a massive transformation. Smart grid technology is
a radical approach for improvisation in prevailing power grid. Integration of electrical and …

A wireless data communication system for future microgrids (MGs) is presented in this paper.
It is assumed that each MG has a central controller and each distributed generation unit in …

The well-developed consensus algorithm provides an elegant distributed way for solving the
energy management problem. The convergence of the consensus-based distributed …

The catastrophic outages and time-variant load patterns have posed a complex problem for
the energy management policy makers in the deregulated power market. The Wide Area …

The performance metrics of IEEE 802.15. 4 standard make it an only dominant option in
short-range environmental monitoring and control applications. The heterogeneous sensor …
