When these resources join the grid, they form new of field crops) and the gas case (like animal waste and structures in the power system that lead to changes in the sewage). Fuel cells (FCs) can be used to convert the system behavior. This requires that the new formed hydrogen of biofuels into electricity. However, the IEC system adapt to the new circumstances and fit to the standards 61850-7-4 and 61850-7-420 can be used for requirements of the power supply rules. As this new information modeling of FCs when installed as DERs, or system contains many RESs, including their associated central stations as well due to their modularity [4]. software and hardware (SW/HW) entities from different Water flows down of a dam is the simplest way to manufacturers that are geographically dispersed, its capture the water energy in order to convert it into control and management would not become an easy task. electric current by rotating the rotor of many turbines to In addition, information integration in this distributed form a hydroelectric power plant.

This rotational different manufacturers. Interoperability in distributed motion turns the rotor of a generator to produce systems is a problem that mainly includes electricity. For mass production of electricity, large scale communication networks and information exchange. WTs is used on shore and off shore, and therefore called Communication networks used in power systems can be wind power plants or wind farms. If these WTs are categorized in three main types [7]; fixed-line networks installed in the distribution level, they are DERs in the such as the public switched telephone network (PSTN), low voltage levels. However, wind power plants exist in wireless networks such as the global system for mobile the high voltage levels, and feed all the produced energy (GSM) communications, and computer networks such as to the grid without active control. Recently, the IEC LANs and WANs. Electric utilities employ these standard 61400-25 is proposed for data modeling of wind networks in different fields of applications; satellite power plants components and for communication communications for time synchronization through the between these components and a supervisory control and global positioning system (GPS), WANs for real time data acquisition (SCADA) system [3]. control, monitor, and intensive data collection, etc. Solar energy is collected from solar radiation via Computer WANs normally follow a specific photovoltaic (PV) cells that absorb and convert it into communication model, which is either open or closed. electric current, and this is the reason why they are called The description of the open model is available for public ECSs. Such cells are grouped in modules and are use, like ISO’s Open System Interconnection (OSI) installed in small as well as large scale. Large scale PV model, Internet model (TCP/IP protocol suite), and IEEE systems are called PV power plants, solar parks or solar 802 model. The closed model is a proprietary model, like farms. In addition, solar energy can be used to heat water IBM’s system network architecture (SNA). The users of and then collect the vapor to rotate steam generators in such model are limited to the hardware and software of a order to produce electricity. These are called solar specific vendor. Fig. 2 shows the open models [8-9]. The thermal power plants, which exist in the high voltage OSI model has seven layers, while the Internet model has levels, and feed all the produced energy to the grid four. The link layer of the Internet model represents the without active control. Nevertheless, the IEC 61850-7- network interface to the communications infrastructure, 420 and the IEC 61850-7-4 standards can be used and normally follows the IEEE 802 standard, which is the together in order to build DERs logical nodes.

  • Comparison of the IEEE 802.11, 802.15.1, 802.15.4 and 802.15.6 Wireless Standards
    Comparison of the IEEE 802.11, 802.15.1, 802.15.4 and 802.15.6 wireless standards Jan Magne Tjensvold∗ September 18, 2007 1 Introduction This paper contains a comparison of some of the wireless standards authored by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) [1]. It explain some of the differences and similarities between the IEEE 802.11, 802.15.1, 802.15.4 and 802.15.6 wireless standards with an emphasis on the physical layer. 2 Wireless standards The wireless standards that we will investigate in this paper is only a selec- tion from all the standards available. These explanations are not meant to be exhaustive. 2.1 IEEE 802.11 - WLAN/Wi-Fi Wireless LAN (WLAN, also known as Wi-Fi) is a set of low tier, terrestrial, net- work technologies for data communication. The WLAN standards operates on the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Industrial, Science and Medical (ISM) frequency bands. It is specified by the IEEE 802.11 standard [2] and it comes in many different variations like IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n. The application of WLAN has been most visible in the consumer market where most portable computers support at least one of the variations. 2.2 IEEE 802.15.1 - Bluetooth The IEEE 802.15.1 standard [3] is the basis for the Bluetooth wireless communi- cation technology. Bluetooth is a low tier, ad hoc, terrestrial, wireless standard for short range communication. It is designed for small and low cost devices with low power consumption. The technology operates with three different classes of devices: Class 1, class 2 and class 3 where the range is about 100 meters, 10 meters and 1 meter respectively.

  • Investigate M2M-Related Communication Standards That Exist on the Global Market Today
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Agder University Research Archive Investigate M2M-related communication standards that exist on the global market today by Aleksander Albretsen Thesis in partial fulfilment of the degree of Master in Technology in Information and Communication Technology Agder University College Faculty of Engineering and Science Grimstad Norway June 2006 Abstract Most M2M applications use well-known communication technologies to interconnect the devices. Even though they use well-known communication technologies there are no widely used and well-defined M2M standards regarding the data exchange (application layer). This thesis investigates and identifies M2M related communication standards that exist on the global market today, and are applicable for M2M standardisation. This thesis is limited to the following segments within M2M: Security, Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) and Utility Control. Today, and in the future, IP will play an important role within M2M. This thesis is therefore mainly focusing on standards that implement how to transfer the application layer using the IP-stack. M2M is defined in this thesis as an application with a central server communicating with end-devices through a gateway, using remote communication from server to gateway. The following standards are investigated and found applicable in one or more of the selected segments: CIP, MODBUS, LonWorks, KNX, DLMS/COSEM, M-BUS, SIA, M2MXML, OPC and ZigBee. Each of the standards is explained within the thesis. All standards are identified and categorised, and area of applications and proposed solutions are described. This thesis discusses the applicability regarding each segment, multiple services behind one gateway, bandwidth consumption, software update and interconnection of networks.

SOLTANIAN, A. TONNERRE and O. RÉBALA National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, MD 20899, USA Abstract. The emergence of several radio technologies, such as Bluetooth and IEEE 802.11, operating in the 2.4 GHz unlicensed ISM frequency band, may lead to signal interference and result in significant performance degradation when devices are colocated in the same environment. The main goal of this paper is to evaluate the effect of mutual interference on the performance of Bluetooth and IEEE 802.11b systems. We develop a simulation framework for modeling interference based on detailed MAC and PHY models. First, we use a simple simulation scenario to highlight the effects of parameters, such as transmission power, offered load, and traffic type. We then turn to more complex scenarios involving multiple Bluetooth piconets and WLAN devices. Keywords: WPANs, Bluetooth, IEEE 802.11b, interference 1.

  • Analysis of Wifi and Wimax and Wireless Network Coexistence
    International Journal of Computer Networks & Communications (IJCNC) Vol.6, No.6, November 2014 ANALYSIS OF WIFI AND WIMAX AND WIRELESS NETWORK COEXISTENCE Shuang Song and Biju Issac School of Computing, Teesside University, Middlesbrough, UK ABSTRACT Wireless networks are very popular nowadays. Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) that uses the IEEE 802.11 standard and WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) that uses the IEEE 802.16 standard are networks that we want to explore. WiMAX has been developed over 10 years, but it is still unknown to most people. However compared to WLAN, it has many advantages in transmission speed and coverage area. This paper will introduce these two technologies and make comparisons between WiMAX and WiFi. In addition, wireless network coexistence of WLAN and WiMAX will be explored through simulation. Lastly we want to discuss the future of WiMAX in relation to WiFi. KEY WORDS WiMAX, WiFi, wireless network, wireless coexistence, network simulation 1. INTRODUCTION With the development of multimedia communication, people need wireless broadband access with higher speed, larger coverage and mobility. The emergence of WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) technology met the people's demand for wireless Internet to some extent. If wireless LAN technology (WLAN) solves the access problem of the "last one hundred meters", then WiMAX technology is the best access solution of the "last mile". Though WiMAX is an emerging and extremely competitive wireless broadband access technology, the development prospects of its market is still unknown. Hybrid networks as a supplement to cell based or IP packet based services, can fully reflect the characteristics of wide network coverage.
