Data aggregate point (DAP) placement is one of the great challenges in implementing smart grid. The placement problem involves determining the optimal number and locations of DAPs, while maintaining a desired level of quality for each communication link that connects a smart meter to its associated DAP. Having smart meters on different feeders in the power network, connecting to the same DAP in the...
Efficient demand side management through dynamic power pricing is an important application in the smart grids. However, in the absence of a detailed user consumption model, it is difficult to set an optimal power price. In this paper, we propose to efficiently capture the user consumption behavior through a user-dependent acceptance price. Each rational user will decide its own acceptance price based...
The task allocation is important part of cooperation behavior modeling. It's influenced by communication and combat capability. According to the existing study, our task allocation model chooses the strategy of agency communication to expend communication network. We use iceberg model to classify the combat capability, and propose the method based on entity comprehensive capability and strategy of...
Smart grid has emerged in our fight against global warming by integrating renewable power sources into electrical power transmission network. We use dynamic pricing to control power demand in respond to the fluctuation in renewable power output. In dynamic pricing, the operator needs to collect information about power supply and to broadcast the latest power price. This information exchange is done...
How the QoS performance of a communication network is affected by the disturbances, such as channel impairments link failures, node mobility, etc.? In other words, how robust is the QoS performance? Before answering these questions, we need a clear definition of QoS performance robustness and a method to quantify it. This paper contributes in the two aspects. It first proposes a new approach to define...
