IEEE Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks Part 16: Air Interface for Fixed Broadband Wireless Access Systems Draft Amendment: Management Information Base Extensions

A communication infrastructure is an essential part to the success of the emerging smart grid. A scalable and pervasive communication infrastructure is crucial in both construction and operation of a smart grid. In this paper, we present the background and motivation of communication infrastructures in smart grid systems. We also summarize major requirements that smart grid communications must meet. From the experience of several industrial trials on smart grid with communication infrastructures, we expect that the traditional carbon fuel based power plants can cooperate with emerging distributed renewable energy such as wind, solar, etc, to reduce the carbon fuel consumption and consequent green house gas such as carbon dioxide emission. The consumers can minimize their expense on energy by adjusting their intelligent home appliance operations to avoid the peak hours and utilize the renewable energy instead. We further explore the challenges for a communication infrastructure as the part of a complex smart grid system. Since a smart grid system might have over millions of consumers and devices, the demand of its reliability and security is extremely critical. Through a communication infrastructure, a smart grid can improve power reliability and quality to eliminate electricity blackout. Security is a challenging issue since the on-going smart grid systems facing increasing vulnerabilities as more and more automation, remote monitoring/controlling and supervision entities are interconnected.

Nowadays, wireless body area networks (WBANs) become an emerging technology which has grown considerably. An increase in the deployment of devices on patients promotes researchers and application developers to focus on issues related to WBAN networks. Therefore, several studies have been done in this field by researchers. The IEEE 802.15.6 standard was proposed to satisfy all the requirements for WBANs communication. As sensed data in such type of networks, it should be transmitted in a reliable and QoS based way. A public-BAN is defined as a network of several personal-BANs. The centralized public-BAN consists of a static coordinator and several personal-BANs. The static coordinator is able to command a portable coordinator in order to control a personal-BAN and runs as an Internet Gateway. In this paper, we considered bridging communications between the IEEE 802.15.6-based WBANs and the IEEE 802.11e-based centralized public-BAN (WLAN). Especially, we proposed two new scheduling algorithms to satisfy QoS requirements in WBAN networks and to overcome the starvation mode of the packets without the highest priority. In order to perform this aim, we introduced the critical delay (CD) as a parameter to serve packets taking into account their priorities and classify them into an aggregated frame. The performance of our proposed schedulers is compared with Priority Queue scheduler (PQ) and Priority Queue Aggregation scheduler (PQA). Conducted simulations illustrate that our proposed schedulers performance overcomes the other schedulers in term of latency, throughput and dropped packets for emergency, general monitoring and controlled load traffics.

Investigation and performance analysis of MAC protocols for WBAN networks

Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN) are becoming the powerful communication technologies of the IoT of tomorrow. LoRaWAN, SigFox, and NB-IoT are the three competing LPWAN technologies. On the other hand, Smart Water Grid (SWG) is an emerging paradigm that promises to over come issues such as pipes leaks encountered by current water infrastructure by deploying smart devices into the water infrastructure for monitoring purposes. This paper firstly explores the physical and communication features of the above LPWAN technologies and provides a comprehensive comparison between them as well as their suitability for the Smart Water Grid (SWG) use case. The important aspect of SWG is to connect devices such as smart water meters and other tiny devices like sensors installed into the water pipelines for the system monitoring purpose. We consider Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) also called Smart Water Metering when dealing with the water grid, which is the main application of SWG and we study the scalability of LoRaWAN, NB-IoT, and SigFox in such application. Under NS3, the simulation results show that NB-IoT provides the best scalability compared to LoRaWAN and SigFox and thus is able to support a huge number of devices with a low packet error rate.
