“…• Adaptability of communication The communication requirements of smart grid applications are manifold [10,22] and can vary depending on the application domain. A smart grid software ecosystem must therefore provide the means for an easy and seamless integration of new requirements (e.g., new communication stacks).…”

“…This also applies for energy systems and especially for electric energy systems. Given the ongoing Internet of Things (IoT) evolution, each and every power grid component can evolve from a former passively or manually operated device into a communicating and interacting element [6,10,23]. IoT-enabled power grid devices have already reached the substation and distribution grid level (e.g., smart meters, smart breakers, electric vehicles, smart storage systems) and allow for an active distribution grid operation with the goal of optimizing the power system to guarantee cost-effective and CO 2 -neutral operation.…”

The transition of classical power distribution grids towards actively operated smart grids locates new functionality into intelligent secondary substations. Increased computational power and newly attained communication infrastructure in thousands of secondary substations allow for the distributed realization of sophisticated functions, which were inconceivable a few years ago. These novel functions (e.g., voltage and reactive power control, distributed generation optimization or decentralized market interaction) can primarily be realized by software components operated on powerful automation devices located on secondary substation level. is crucial and has a broad set of requirements. In this paper, we present a flexible and modular software ecosystem for automation devices of substations, which is able to handle these requirements. This ecosystem contains means for high performance data exchange and unification, automatic application provisioning and configuration functions, dependency management, and others. The application of the ecosystem is demonstrated in the context of a field operation example, which has been developed within an Austrian smart grid research project.

LTE network is a good choice for delivering smart grid demand response (DR) traffic. However, LTE connectivity is not pervasively available due to smart meter improper positioning, limited of coverage, or base station software or hardware failures. In this paper, a solution is introduced to overcome issues relating to lack of LTE base station connectivity for user equipment (UE) considered as remote terminal units, i.e. communication interfaces connected to smart meters. The solution is an ad hoc mode for the LTEAdvanced UE. The ad hoc mode is applied to reach a relay node that is the nearest UE with base station connection. DR traffic is delivered between clusters of UEs and a relay node using multi-hop communications. Analytical Markov chain models and a Riverbed Modeler network simulation model are implemented to illustrate the functionalities and the performance when DR traffic is delivered with varying transmission power levels. A detailed physical layer propagation model for device-to-device communications, a static resource allocation in time domain, hybrid automatic repeat request retransmissions, and a capability for a UE to receive uplink transmissions are modeled both analytically and in the simulator. Both the disjoint analysis and simulations show that all packets are successfully transmitted at most with the fourth transmission attempt and the average network delay is low enough to support most of the smart grid DR applications (139.2-546.6 ms).

In this paper, a Controller Area Network (CAN) based communication system is presented for collision or accident avoidance. This system can be used in automobiles to provide more safety. CAN architecture has been proposed and implemented using MCP2515. The major advantage of CAN based smart network over the traditional point to point schemes is increased and more flexibility and expandability new features. Various parameters of the car basically speed, distance from the other cars, obstacles like persons and presences of animals detected and measures accurately. A status signal may send to the car driver if any of the desire parameter goes out of range to avoid accidents. The aim of this project is to avoid collision by detecting obstacles, vehicles using IR or ultrasonic sensors for obstacle avoidance and controlling the vehicle accordingly by using CAN protocol.
