The goals of this evolution are broad, including the promotion of widespread and distributed deployment of renewable energy sources, increased energy efficiency, peak power reduction, automated demand response, improved reliability, lower energy delivery costs, and consumer participation in energy management. This evolution will touch each and every aspect of the electric power grid, a system that has changed l...
In this paper, quality of service (QoS) requirements of smart grid and other utility applications carried over an integrated Internet Protocol (IP) network are analyzed. The delay allowances for the traffic flows may vary from 8 to 10 ms for teleprotection applications to up to one second or more for interval measurements from smart meters. Networking product and service implementation and practices for network quality of service will need to support the large variation in delay and priority requirements of these applications. The paper offers four main contributions: 1) A survey of QoS requirements for smart grid applications; 2) a proposal for active use of extended differentiated services code points (DSCPs) beyond those used for traffic classification in typical networks, services, and product implementations; 3) an analysis of using the strict priority queue to support multiple mission critical and other high priority applications; and 4) a special discussion on support for traffic generated by the teleprotection application and for its QoS requirements. © 2011 Alcatel-Lucent. implemented for actual classification of traffic. We then analyze overloading the strict priority queue with several mission critical applications with very low delay requirements. We show that to support the low delay requirements of smart grid mission critical applications when a strict priority queuing discipline is applied, it is necessary to provision large bandwidths at network aggregation points such as at a substation router. This requirement is validated with simulation results. Finally, we present the conclusions from our study.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
