TL;DR: In this article, a fixed WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) protocol is proposed for the grid control center (GCC) to aggregator communication and the applicable path loss models for WiMAX protocol are analyzed and compared.
Abstract: The Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) has become a reality with development in power grid and advancements in vehicle technology. The EVs will gradually replace the existing vehicles due to growing oil demands and environment concerns. The EVs can be integrated to the grid for power transaction and contribute to the grid. The grid control center (GCC) to aggregator communication is very crucial in V2G operation and meet the load demand. The fixed WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) protocol is proposed for the GCC to aggregator communication. The applicable path loss models for WiMAX protocol are analysed and compared. The physical layer of WiMAX protocol is modeled in MATLAB/SIMULINK and its performance is investigated.

Abstract: Abstract In this paper mathematical model for traffic pattern analysis, prediction and resource utilization of Electric Vehicles (EV) in aggregator regions/parking lot zones is proposed. The proposed and presented mathematical model for EV traffic pattern/resource utilization in smart city can be used to estimate the amount of power/voltage available/required by EVs in different aggregator regions. Development of multiagent communication (MAC) based framework for aggregator to EV communication is discussed. V2G aggregation in distribution network forms a Physical part and utility side with sensing/communication forms a Cyber part which combinedly constitutes a Cyber-Physical system. Simulations were carried out on IEEE 33/69 bus test systems using MATLAB and MOBILE C was used for MAC. The results obtained were promising in terms of improved voltage profile and reduced power losses.

Also, multi objective optimization is presented for the minimization of power losses and maximization of voltage. Furthermore multiagent system (MAS) based analytical model is proposed for GEV aggregation. Comprehensive case studies are conducted on IEEE 33 and 69 bus test distribution systems using MATLAB and it is observed that the timely and optimal placement of GEV aggregation in distribution network using multiagent communication (MAC) will lead to reduction in power losses and improvement in voltage profile. MATLAB and MOBILE C were used for the simulation studies and results demonstrate significant benefits of GEV aggregation in distribution network.
