    A Hybrid Energy Harvesting Framework for Energy Efficiency in Wireless Sensor Networks Based Smart Grid Applications
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-06) Yildiz, Huseyin Ugur; Güngör, Vehbi Çağrı; Tavli, Bülent
    In smart grid applications, Wireless Sensor Net-works (WSNs) which consist of battery limited sensor nodes are used on critical equipments of power distribution grids for monitoring purposes. WSN nodes have tight energy constraints hence it is important to reduce the energy consumption of sensor nodes due to harsh propagation characteristics of smart grid environment. One possible way to reduce the energy consumption is to utilize transmission power control where transmission powers are adjusted according to channel conditions. Another technique is to employ energy harvesting schemes to provide additional power for nodes by using environmental energy sources. Solar and electromagnetic energies are two possible environmental energy sources in outdoor substation environments. Solar energy can be efficiently exploited in a sunny day. On the other hand, electromagnetic energy can be used at any time. In this work, we propose a hybrid energy harvesting model that exploits both solar and electromagnetic energies and develop a Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) method to minimize the energy dissipation of sensor nodes. By using the MIP framework, we quantify the impact of the proposed hybrid energy harvesting model as well as transmission power control on the energy saving of nodes. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Akıllı Şebeke Uygulamaları için Pille Çalışan Duyarga Düğümlerinin Yaşam Süresi Analizi

    Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) enable smart grids where sensor nodes monitor and control the important parameters of power grid components. However, energy-aware communication protocols should be developed to extend network lifetime of WSNs in smart grid environments. In this study, the lifetime of wireless sensor nodes has been analyzed for various smart grid environments, such as 500 kV substation, main power control room, and underground network transformer vaults. In addition, the effects of different operation modes of sensor nodes on node lifetime have been reviewed. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
