TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a new generation of measurement systems which makes use of remote fiber-optic sensors, centralized control computers and expert systems, which rely on some physical properties of optical fibers and on sophisticated data analysis.
Abstract: The integration of power network measurement systems based on optical fibers used as sensors is now possible, and computers play an important role in this integration. These systems rely on some physical properties of optical fibers and on sophisticated data analysis. They have the advantage of electrical noise immunity and are highly reliable. Here, the authors describe a new generation of measurement systems which makes use of remote fiber-optic sensors, centralized control computers and expert systems.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study and quantify the capabilities of an advanced metring infrastructure (AMI) to support the simultaneous operation of major smart grid functions such as smart metring, price-induced controls, distribution automation, demand response, and electric vehicle charging/discharging applications in terms of throughput and latency.
Abstract: The design of an effective and reliable communication network supporting smart grid applications requires the selection of appropriate communication technologies and protocols. The objective of this study is to study and quantify the capabilities of an advanced metring infrastructure (AMI) to support the simultaneous operation of major smart grid functions. These include smart metring, price-induced controls, distribution automation, demand response, and electric vehicle charging/discharging applications in terms of throughput and latency. OPNET is used to simulate the performance of selected communication technologies and protocols. Research findings indicate that smart grid applications can operate simultaneously by piggybacking on an existing AMI infrastructure and still achieve their latency requirements.
