    Spectrum-Aware Bio-Inspired Routing in Cognitive Radio Sensor Networks for Smart Grid Applications
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2017-03) Fadel, E.; Faheem, M.; Gungor, V. C.; Nassef, L.; Akkari, N.; Malik, M. G. A.; Akyildiz, I. F.
    Cognitive radio sensor networks (CRSNs) have been proposed to serve as a reliable, robust, and efficient communications infrastructure that can address both the existing and future energy management requirements of the smart grid. The existing and envisioned applications of CRSN-based smart grid include substation automation, overhead transmission line monitoring, home energy management, advanced metering infrastructure, wide-area situational awareness, demand response, outage management, distribution automation, asset management. To realize these applications, in this paper, honey bee mating optimization-based routing and cooperative channel assignment algorithms have been proposed. The developed framework significantly decreases the probability of packet loss and preserves high link quality among sensor nodes in harsh smart grid spectrum environments. The proposed approach performance has been evaluated in terms of packet delivery ratio, delay, and energy consumption demonstrating that it has successfully addressed the QoS requirements of most of the SG applications presented.

    Frequency and Electric Field Controllable Photodevice: FYTRONIX Device
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2017-08) Tataroglu, A.; Al-Sehemi, Abdullah G.; Ozdemir, Mehmet; Ozdemir, Resul; Usta, Hakan; Al-Ghamdi, Ahmed A.; Yakuphanoglu, F.
    Al/p-Si/BODIPY/Al diode was fabricated by forming BODIPY organic layer on p-Si having ohmic contact. The electrical and photoresponse properties of the prepared diode were investigated in detail. The current-voltage ( I-V) measurements were performed under dark and various illumination intensities. It is observed that the photocurrent under illumination is higher than the dark current. The transient measurements indicate that the device exhibits both photodiode and photocapacitor behavior. We called this device as FYTRONIX device. The photoresponse behavior of the FYTRONIX device is controlled simultaneously by frequency and electric field. The FYRONIX device can be used as a photoresponse sensor in optoelectronic applications.

    Capacity and Spectrum-Aware Communication Framework for Wireless Sensor Network-Based Smart Grid Applications
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2017-08) Faheem, Muhammad; Gungor, Vehbi Cagri; Cagri Gungor, Vehbi
    Recently, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been widely recognized as a promising technology for enhancing various aspects of smart grid and realizing the vision of next-generation electric power system in a cost-effective and efficient manner. However, recent field tests show that wireless links in smart grid environments have higher packet error rates and variable link capacity because of dynamic topology changes, obstructions, electromagnetic interference, equipment noise, multipath effects, and fading. To overcome these communication challenges, in this paper, we propose a data capacity-aware channel assignment (DCA) and fish bone routing (FBR) algorithm for WSN-based smart grid applications. The proposed DCA framework deals with the channel scarcities by dynamically switching between different spectrum bands and employs a network for organizing WSN into a highly stable connected hierarchy. In addition, the proposed FBR mechanism provides robust loop free data paths and avoids high transmission cost, excessive end-to-end delay and restricts unnecessary multi-hop data transmission from the source to destination in the network. Thus, it significantly reduces the probability of data packet loss and preserves stable link qualities among sensor nodes for load balancing and prolonging the lifetime of wireless sensor networks in harsh smart grid environments. Comparative performance evaluations show that our proposed schemes outperform the existing communication architectures in terms of data packet delivery, communication delay and energy consumption.

    A New Efficient Error Control Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks in Smart Grid
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2019-03) Yigit, Melike; Boluk, Pinar Sarisaray; Gungor, V. Cagri; Sarisaray Boluk, Pinar
    Error detection and correction is an important issue in the design and maintenance of a smart grid communication network to provide reliable communication between sender and receiver. Various error-control coding techniques are employed to reduce bit error rates (BER) in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The performance of these techniques is also compared and evaluated to find the most suitable technique for WSNs. This is the first study to compare the most efficient coding techniques in the smart grid environment, and it suggests a new error correction algorithm based on this comparison result. Therefore, this article first examines and compares two forward error control (FEC) coding techniques such as Bose-Chaudhuri-Hochquenghem code (BCH) and Reed Solomon code (RS) with various modulation methods including frequency shift keying (FSK), offset quadrature phase-shift keying (OQPSK), and differential phase shift keying (DPSK) in a 500 kV line-of-sight (LoS) substation smart grid environment. Second, as a result of this comparison, a new adaptive error control (AEC) algorithm is proposed. Adaptive error control adaptively changes error correction code (ECC) based on the channel behavior that is observed through the packet error rate (PER) in the recent previous transmissions. The link-quality-aware capacitated minimum hop spanning tree (LQ-CMST) algorithm and the multi-channel scheduling algorithm are used for data transmission over the log-normal channel. Therefore, the performance of compared coding techniques and AEC are also evaluated when multiple channels are used during transmission Further, AEC is compared with static RS and without-FEC methods based on performance metrics such as the throughput, BER, and delay in different smart grid environments, e.g., 500 kV Substation (LoS), underground network transformer vaults (UTV) (LoS), and main power control room (MPR) (LoS). Our simulation results indicate that the proposed AEC algorithm achieves better performances than all those techniques.

    A Detailed Investigation of the Electronic Properties of a Multi-Layer Spherical Quantum Dot With a Parabolic Confinement
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2012-07) Akgul, Selcuk; Sahin, Mehmet; Koksal, Koray
    In this work, we aim a detailed investigation of the electronic properties of a spherical multi-layer quantum dot with and without a hydrogenic impurity. The structure is introduced in the form of core/shell/well/shell layers. The core and well layers are defined by the parabolic electronic potentials. We carry out the effect of the core radius and layer thickness on the energy levels, their wave functions, binding energies of the impurity and the probability distributions. In order to determine the sublevel eigenvalues and eigenfunctions, the Schrodinger equation is solved full numerically by shooting method in the frame of the effective mass approximation. The results are analyzed in detail as a function of the layer thicknesses and their probable physical reasons are tried to be explained. It is found that the electronic properties and impurity binding energies are strongly depending on the layer thicknesses. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
