Smart Transformer using Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) and Advance Sensor Infrastructure (ASI)

Broadband PLC for Clustered Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) Architecture

Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) subsystems monitor and control energy distribution through exchange of information between smart meters and utility networks. A key challenge is how to select a cost-effective communication system without compromising the performance of the applications. Current communication technologies were developed for conventional data networks with different require...

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...

Advanced Metering Infrastructure Data Driven Phase Identification in Smart Grid

Many important distribution network applications, such as load balancing, state-estimation, and network reconfiguration, depend on accurate phase connectivity information. The existing data-driven phase identification algorithms have a few drawbacks. First, the existing algorithms require the number of phase connections as an input. Second, they can not provide accurate results when there is a ...

Wireless Sensor Networks and Advanced Metering Infrastructure Deployment in Smart Grid

The increasing demand for electricity has necessitated the introduction of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the development of the smart grid. Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are contributing technologies. In this paper, a review on AMI and WSN in the smart grid is carried out. Also, the introduction of WSNs with AMI in the in-home e...
