The smart grid is a new type of power grid that will use the advanced communication network technologies to support more efficient energy transmission and distribution. The grid infrastructure was designed for reliability; but security, especially against

Modeling a Nationwide Public Safety Broadband Network

June 1, 2013
Author(s)
Richard A. Rouil, Antonio Izquierdo Manzanares, Michael R. Souryal, Camillo Gentile, David W. Griffith, Nada T. Golmie
As governments plan nationwide, interoperable broadband networks for their public safety services, the challenge arises of determining how and where to invest limited resources to meet demanding requirements. The United States is at the early stages of

Wireless Network Deployment in the Smart Grid: Design and Evaluation Issues

November 30, 2012
Author(s)
Camillo A. Gentile, David W. Griffith, Michael R. Souryal
The projected use of the power grid for “smart” applications such as advanced metering and distributed automation will require highly reliable, secure, well-designed and managed communication networks. While many of the benefits of wireless communications

On Distributed Energy Routing Protocols in the Smart Grid

November 5, 2012
Author(s)
Jie Lin, Guobin Xu, David W. Griffith, Xinyu Yang, Wei Yu
The Smart Grid is a new type of power grid that will provide reliable, secure, and efficient energy transmission and distribution. It promises to integrate distributed energy resources with conventional generation plants, and intelligently transmit energy

Wireless Networks for Smart Grid Applications

June 29, 2012
Author(s)
David W. Griffith, Michael R. Souryal, Nada T. Golmie
This chapter discusses the use of wireless networks in the context of the smart grid. First, it provides an overview of the various applications envisaged in the smart grid and discusses their communication requirements. Sifting through thousands of

Minimum-Risk Layer 2 Trigger Levels for Proactive Media-Independent Handovers

February 1, 2011
Author(s)
David W. Griffith, Alexandre Delye, Nada T. Golmie
Anticipated handovers that use Link Going Down (LGD) and Link Down (LD) trigger events require the network operator to set the LGD trigger high enough that the handover completes before the LD trigger event. However, setting the LGD trigger too high can

An Integrated PHY and MAC Layer Model for Half-Duplex IEEE 802.11 Networks

November 2, 2010
Author(s)
David W. Griffith, Michael R. Souryal, Camillo A. Gentile, Nada T. Golmie
This paper introduces an IEEE 802.11 analytical model that examines uplink and downlink communications between non-saturated stations and a non-saturated access point. The model integrates channel effects and collisions into a single expression for the

A New Call Admission Control Scheme for Heterogeneous Wireless Networks

October 31, 2010
Author(s)
Duk Kyung Kim, David W. Griffith, Nada T. Golmie
Call admission control between heterogeneous networks,such as an integrated 3GPP LTE and WLAN network, plays an important role to utilize the system resources in a more efficient way. In this paper, we propose that the preference to the WLAN is determined

Modeling Smart Grid Applications with Co-Simulation

October 5, 2010
Author(s)
Timothy Godfrey, Mullen Sara, Roger C. Dugan, Craig Rodine, David W. Griffith, Nada T. Golmie
Analysis of complex Smart Grid applications require simulation of communications networks and the power system. Analytical models of the communication systems provide a tool for examining the aggregate behavior of the system. An event level analysis in the
