Testing and Evaluation of the Impact Sensor Networks for Power Distribution and Utilization in Smart Grid

Smart Grid deploys wildly lots of sensors for various applications to sense operation environment, monitor production process and realize the automation control etc. However, due to the wireless and open communication, the electromagnetic phenomena in the communication and the electric network of the sensor networks usually produce the mutual interference. Electrical equipment and sensors are usually in high pressure electromagnetic environment. It is very important to ensure the reliability and stability in smart grid applications. Therefore, these sensing and communication devices must be tested through the equal parameter simulation environment under strict evaluation and verification, and they can be put to use in actual production operation system. In this paper, we analyze the application of wireless sensor networks in smart grid, and propose a novel test method and evaluation mechanism for the interaction of wireless sensor network and smart grid.
