Intelligent control algorithm for smart grid systems

Abstract

A secured, well-organized and cost-effective communication system is essential for future Smart Grid (SG) systems, which consists of multi-tier network standard that makes it challenging to synchronize in power management communication. In this paper, we present a communication system model for SG systems by specifying a control algorithm for multilayer devices in home area network (HAN) that is one of the most essential subsystems in the SG. Our focus is to demonstrate a consistent HAN by Zigbee node to save device power as well as bandwidth to transfer the information of electricity consumption. In addition, a dynamic programming based control algorithm is devised for enhancing reliability to control total electricity consumption of an entire SG system in the lack of sufficient electricity supply. Experimental result exhibits the efficiency of the proposed system. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
