COMMUNICATION SOLUTIONS FOR SMART GRIDS, SMART CITIES AND SMART BUILDINGS

摘要

This paper presents the communication infrastructure conceptual model for smart grid as the basis for describing, discussing, and developing the final architecture of the smart grid. The survey of communication architectures, including the communication compositions, technologies, requirements etc. are provided. Different communications technologies supported by two main communication media, wired and wireless, should be used for data transmission between digital devices and electric utilities, or their centres.
