Using wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in delay and reliability critical environments is highly desired due to their unique advantages such as low cost, ease of deployment, and redundancy. However, successful deployment of resource-limited WSNs in such applications requires strict quality-of-service (QoS) provisioning techniques to meet the desired latency and reliability targets of those applications...
The quality of service (QoS) in Smart Grid (SG) communications has a significant importance on emerging SG applications. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) were considered as a compatible choice to fulfill this issue. In fact, WSNs could be widely used in a wide range of smart grid applications because they have been successfully adopted in several critical areas. Unlike other WSN applications, SG requires...
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are anticipated to be widely adopted in the various monitoring and control applications due to their versatility and low cost. One of the most promising and emerging WSNs applications is their use in monitoring smart grid assets. Although WSNs can provide cost efficient and reliable solutions, they are not suitable for delay critical application, because they were initially...
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are anticipated to become the preferred tools of choice for monitoring and controlling power utility assets in the smart grid due to their versatility. However, in some smart grid monitoring applications, data generation rates could fluctuate rapidly due to the sudden occurrence of critical faults or failures in the monitored equipment. As a consequence, critical data...
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are emerging as promising tools to aid in monitoring the smart grid. WSNs can be easily deployed in a wide number of smart grid assets such as substations, overhead power lines and power generation sites. They offer ubiquity and flexibility at a low-cost. However it may be difficult to offer the Quality of Service (QoS) demanded by the smart grid applications with WSNs...
In Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) based smart grid condition monitoring applications (e.g., the detection of a Partial Discharge (PD) event in high voltage transformers), network traffic dramatically increases when cascaded faults occur. Reliability and delay are among the main issues that are affected by this increase in the traffic rates. In this paper, we present an adaptive Quality of Service (QoS)...
