Smart grid is a modernized electrical grid. It is used to collect information about behaviors of suppliers and consumers and improve the efficiency, reliability, and economics of electricity. Recently, advanced metering infrastructure is proposed as a critical part of the smart grid. The security of advanced metering infrastructure is special importance for smart grid. In order to achieve data confidentiality, privacy, and authentication in advanced metering infrastructure, a lightweight authentication and key agreement scheme is proposed in this article. The scheme provides mutual authentication, key agreement, key refreshment, and multicast mechanism which can prevent various attacks. Furthermore, we analyze the security and performance of the scheme. The analysis shows that the proposed scheme is suitable for smart grid.

AbstractWith the rapid development of smart grids and increasing data collected in these networks, analyzing this massive data for applications such as marketing, cyber-security, and performance analysis, has gained popularity. This paper focuses on analysis and performance evaluation of big data frameworks that are proposed for handling smart grid data. Since obtaining large amounts of smart grid data is difficult due to privacy concerns, we propose and implement a large scale smart grid data generator to produce massive data under conditions similar to those in real smart grids. We use four open source big data frameworks namely Hadoop-Hbase, Cassandra, Elasticsearch, and MongoDB, in our implementation. Finally, we evaluate the performance of different frameworks on smart grid big data and present a performance benchmark that includes common data analysis techniques on smart grid data.

In order to support characters of data acquisition system of smart grid, such as scalable and plug and play, one configurable node of sensor network was proposed. The number of protocol standard, the number of interface of each protocol standard, the number of senor of each interface and the number of byte of each sensor can be configured in this node. All these parameters can be configured according to the specific application of smart grid and then achieve the best balance between cost and performance. One real model was implemented by VHDL and the number of protocol standard, the number of interface of each protocol standard, the number of sensor of each interface, the number of byte of each sensor can be configured in the range from 1 to 8. The correctness and validity of this real model were confirmed by simulation results of configurable level and one application instance.
