From Smart Grid to Internet of Energy

The recent emerging communication technologies, which can be regarded as promising technologies to improve smart grid systems and their components are an important factor in monitoring energy use. The purpose of From Smart Grid to Internet of Energy is to cover novel and emerging metering and monitoring technologies, communication systems and technologies in the smart grid areas in order to present a more valuable reference for readers from various engineering backgrounds.

Considering relevant topics on the essentials of smart grids to emerging wireless communication systems such as IEEE 802.15.4 based novel technologies, cognitive radio networks and Internet of Energy, this book offers a discussion on the emerging trends and research direction for communication technologies. Including research concepts and visualization of smart grids and related communication technologies, and enhancing the usability of the book for practicing network engineers with case studies.

• Includes global case studies and examples of communications systems integrated with smart grid
• Presents literature surveys for wide variety of smart grids, wired and wireless communication technologies, big data, privacy and security
• Covers all aspects of IoE systems and discusses the differences between IoE and Smart Grids
