MAC Protocols Design for Smart Metering Network

MAC Protocols Design for Smart Metering Network

The new generation of power metering system i.e. Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is expected to enable remote reading, control, demand response and other advanced functions, based on the integration of a new two-way communication network, which will be referred as Smart Metering Network (SMN). In this paper, we focus on the design principles of multiple access control (MAC) protocols for...

Analysis of Communication Protocols for Smart Metering

This presented article deals with the issue of VDWS and DLSM communication protocols, that are used for remote reading of intelligent electrometers for smart metering. This article analyzes the real data communication from the distribution networkof CEZ, a.s., one of the biggiest elektricity distributor in EU. Based on the analyzed data the authors then introduce their recommendations and the d...

Hyrbrid MAC protocols for wireless sensor network

— this paper offers a summary of hybrid MAC Protocols that square measure designed exploitation FDMA, TDMA and CSMA approaches, giving it the flexibility to adapt to traffic and topology changes. It adopts a TDMA/FDMA/CSMA approach to beat the downside that is facing as individual protocol exploitation single approach. ZMAC, IHMAC, IMAC, BAZ-MAC, PHMAC, ERMAC like these there square measure man...

Strategies for Power Line Communications Smart Metering Network Deployment

Smart Grids are becoming a reality all over the world. Nowadays, the research efforts for the introduction and deployment of these grids are mainly focused on the development of the field of Smart Metering. This emerging application requires the use of technologies to access the significant number of points of supply (PoS) existing in the grid, covering the Low Voltage (LV) segment with the low...
