چکیده
This paper presents the development of Smart Grid testbed using SCADA software and Xbee wireless communication. The proposed testbed combines both the software simulation and the hardware simulation. The Winlog SCADA software is employed to implement the algorithm in the Smart Grid system. To communicate between nodes and the Smart Grid Center, the Xbee wireless communication is employed. The testbed is useful to test and verify the developed algorithms in the Smart Grid system. By using the hardware testbed, the more realistic simulation could be performed. While by using the software testbed, the complex model and algorithm could be implemented easily. The experimental results show that the proposed testbed works properly in simulating the continuous supply algorithm implemented in the Smart Grid system. Keywords—SCADA; Smart Grid; wireless communication; Xbee DigiMesh; testbed
