Energy Information

In order to facilitate the advanced measurement system with real-time interaction in smart grid and to satisfy the requirements for power quality management, a wireless ad hoc smart metering system for power quality using Internet of things (IoTs) technology is presented in the paper. By utilizing the energy metering module to collect energy information, the ZigBee ad hoc networks to transmit energy information, and the user monitoring terminal to support power grids management, the proposed system is able to efficiently realize the power quality information collection, transmission, processing and sharing. Experimental results demonstrate that the system performs real-time and precious monitoring of the distributed client power quality information, together with friendly and intelligent interaction capability.

Network Status

Simulation software in MANET research is vital. Such a tool provides a versatile mechanism to understand all the involved aspects of these particular systems, from the radio interface to the last communication layer. In this chapter, the authors present the SimuMANET project, a tool for both simulation and field tests purpose. It allows the deployment of wireless reconfigurable ad-hoc networks and MANETs, assisted by a real-time graphical user interface (GUI) for network traffic monitoring and management of radio electric features of the links established between the active network nodes. Due to a set of functionalities, such as GUI, network topology visualization, traffic and motion pattern configuration, and real-time network status analysis, the simulator introduced here becomes a valid tool for both research and education targets. Two scenarios with different types of motion and traffic are simulated using the SimuMANET tool, and the results are shown and commented to illustrate some capabilities of this software.

The Impact

This paper presents a feasibility study on how to implement power quality (PQ) metrics in a low-cost smart metering platform. The study is aimed at verifying the possibility of implementing PQ monitoring in distribution networks without replacing existing smart metering devices or adding new modules for PQ measurements, thus zeroing the installation costs. To this aim, an electronic board, currently used for remote energy metering, was chosen as a case study, specifically the STCOMET platform. Starting from the specifications of this device, the possibility of implementing power quality metrics is investigated in order to verify if compliance with standard requirements for PQ instruments can be obtained. Issues related to device features constraints are discussed; possible solutions and correction algorithms are presented and experimentally verified for different PQ metrics with a particular focus on harmonic analysis. The feasibility study takes into account both the use of on-board voltage and current transducers for low voltage applications and also the impact of external instrument transformers on measurement results.
