Advanced Metering Infrastructure Performance

Advanced Metering Infrastructure Security Considerations

The purpose of this report is to provide utilities implementing Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) with the knowledge necessary to secure that implementation appropriately. We intend that utilities use this report to guide their planning, procurement, roll-out, and assessment of the security of Advanced Metering Infrastructure. This report discusses threats to the AMI, the likely sources of...

An ECC-Based Mutual Authentication Scheme with One Time Signature (OTS) in Advanced Metering Infrastructure

Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) is a key part of the smart grid; thus, one of the most important concerns is to offer a secure mutual authentication.  This study focuses on communication between a smart meter and a server on the utility side. Hence, a mutual authentication mechanism in AMI is presented based on the elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) and one time signature (OTS) consists o...

Energy Theft in the Advanced Metering Infrastructure

Global energy generation and delivery systems are transitioning to a new computerized “smart grid”. One of the principle components of the smart grid is an advanced metering infrastructure (AMI). AMI replaces the analog meters with computerized systems that report usage over digital communication interfaces, e.g., phone lines. However, with this infrastructure comes new risk. In this paper, we ...

Advanced Metering Infrastructure Analytics -A Case Study

Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is the basic building block for development of Smart Grid in Distribution System. The main purpose of AMI is to enable two way communication between consumer and Smart Grid Control Center of Utility which involves remote monitoring & control of energy consumption as well as other parameters in real time. Meter data analytics play a vital role in AMI system...
