IEEE Smart Grid Research: Communications

This Communications bundle includes, "IEEE Vision for Smart Grid Communications: 2030 and Beyond", "IEEE Vision for Smart Grid Communications: 2030 and Beyond Roadmap", and the "IEEE Vision for Smart Grid Communications: 2030 and Beyond Reference Model". The IEEE Vision for Smart Grid Communications bundle discusses topics such as a vision of the communications-related aspects of the Smart Grid in the year 2030, and also lays out the technology roadmap that will lead us to the vision. This document starts with some basic knowledge of the power grid and follows up with fundamental building blocks for the communication infrastructure that will accompany the Smart Grid. Subsequently, network architectures, including overlays, are discussed at length. Also discussed, are important issues such as standards, regulations, security, and disruptive technologies. The last part of this document discusses emerging technologies such as the solid state transformer, wireless beamed power, and quantum key distribution. Throughout the document, a careful distinction is made between communications capabilities and the specific technologies that are required to support those capabilities.
