Some Ideas on Privacy Preserving Meter Aggregation
نویسنده
چکیده
With the upcoming widespread distribution of smart meters for electricity, gas and water consumption, new opportunities are closely linked to new privacy concerns. In this paper, we present protocols that can be used to privately compute aggregate measurements, allowing for fraudand leakage detection as well as statistical evaluation of meter measurements, without revealing any information about the non-aggregated values. While the protocols are aimed at the smart metering case, the technologies provided may be of independent interest for aggregating protocols.

Privacy-Preserving Data Aggregation Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks: A Survey
Many wireless sensor network (WSN) applications require privacy-preserving aggregation of sensor data during transmission from the source nodes to the sink node. In this paper, we explore several existing privacy-preserving data aggregation (PPDA) protocols for WSNs in order to provide some insights on their current status. For this, we evaluate the PPDA protocols on the basis of such metrics a...
متن کاملFault-Tolerant Privacy-Preserving Statistics
Real-time statistics on smart meter consumption data must preserve consumer privacy and tolerate smart meter failures. Existing protocols for this private distributed aggregation model suffer from various drawbacks that disqualify them for application in the smart energy grid. Either they are not fault-tolerant or if they are, then they require bidirectional communication or their accuracy decr...

Growing energy needs forces governments to look for alternative resources and ways of better energy grid management and load balancing. As a major initiative, many countries including the UK, the USA and China have already started deploying smart grids. One of the biggest advantages of smart grids compared to traditional energy grids is the ability to remotely read fine-granular measurements fr...

In this paper we introduce a novel gossiping primitive to support privacy preserving data analytics (PPDA). In contrast to existing computational PPDA primitives such as secure multiparty computation and data randomization based approaches, the proposed primitive “anonymous gossiping” is a communication primitive for privacy preserving personalized information aggregation complementing such tra...
متن کاملA Survey on Privacy-preserving Schemes for Smart Grid Communications
In this paper, we present a comprehensive survey of privacy-preserving schemes for Smart Grid communications. Specifically, we select and in-detail examine thirty privacy preserving schemes developed for or applied in the context of Smart Grids. Based on the communication and system models, we classify these schemes that are published between 2013 and 2016, in five categories, including, 1) Sma...
