    (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.

    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2022) Al-Abri, Tariq; Onen, Ahmet; Al-Abri, Rashid; Hossen, Abdulnasir; Al-Hinai, Amer; Jung, Jaesung; Ustun, Taha Selim
    With the rapid transformation of the energy sector towards modern power systems represented by smart grids (SGs), microgrids (MG), and distributed generation, blockchain (BC) technology has shown the capability for solving security, privacy, and reliability challenges that hinder progress. Currently, the energy structure is forming a decentralized system that prioritizes customer satisfaction. BC technology undertakes power network stockholders in a secure energy market, transparent transactions, and fair competition and offers promising energy solutions. This paper is a comprehensive review of energy applications using BC integration. Firstly, we introduce the drivers of BC leverage that make it a potentially important component of the power network. Following that, we provide background information on BC and its application in areas other than the energy sector. Subsequently, we discuss studies and sort potential energy applications from various recent papers and surveys that have already adopted BC technology in the energy sector. Then, we summarize the pricing infrastructure for applying BC in the energy sector and identify the requirements to build it. Finally, energy security and privacy challenges based on BC are highlighted, along with potential drawbacks and concerns related to the pricing infrastructure.

    (Elsevier B.V., 2019-10) Faheem, Muhammed Yasir; Butt, Rizwan Aslam; Raza, Basit; Ashraf, Muhammad Waqar; Ngadi, M. A.; Güngör, Vehbi Çağrı
    The smart grid is an emerging concept that introduces innovative ways to handle the power quality and reliability issues for both service provider and consumers. The key aims of the smart grid (SG) in smart cities (SCs) is to preserve a certain level of residents’ life quality and support the entire spectrum of their economic activities. In this paper, we present a novel Energy Efficient and Reliable Data Gathering Routing Protocol (ODGRP) for wireless sensor networks (WSNs)-based smart grid applications. The developed scheme employs a software-defined centralized controller and multiple mobile sinks for energy efficient and reliable data gathering from WSNs in the SG. The extensive simulation results conducted through the EstiNet 9.0 show that the designed scheme outperforms existing approaches and achieves its defined goals for event-driven applications in the SG. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    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 Survey on Wireless Sensor Networks for Smart Grid
    (Elsevier, 2015-11) Fadel, Etimad; Gungor, V. C.; Nassef, Laila; Akkari, Nadine; Maik, M. G. Abbas; Almasri, Suleiman; Akyildiz, Ian F.; Abbas Malik, M.G.
    The traditional power grid in many countries suffers from high maintenance costs and scalability issues along with the huge expense of building new power stations, and lack of efficient system monitoring that could increase the overall performance by acting proactively in preventing potential failures. To address these problems, a next-generation electric power system, called the smart grid (SG), has been proposed as an evolutionary system for power generation, transmission, and distribution. To this end, the SGs utilize renewable energy generation, smart meters and modern sensing and communication technologies for effective power system management, and hence, succeeding in addressing many of the requirements of a modern power grid system while significantly increase its performance. Recently, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been recognized as a promising technology to achieve seamless, energy efficient, reliable, and low-cost remote monitoring and control in SG applications. In these systems, the required information can be provided to electric utilities by wireless sensor systems to enable them to achieve high system efficiency. The real-time information gathered from these sensors can be analyzed to diagnose problems early and serve as a basis for taking remedial action. In this paper, first WSN-based SG applications have been explored along with their technical challenges. Then, design challenges and protocol objectives have been discussed for WSN-based SG applications. After exploring applications and design challenges, communication protocols for WSN-based SG applications have been explained in detail. Here, our goal is to elaborate on the role of WSNs for smart grid applications and to provide an overview of the most recent advances in MAC and routing protocols for WSNs in this timely and exciting field.

    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.
