Smart grid data compression and reconstruction by wavelet packet transform

A smart grid is a power network from generation to consumers and provides beneficial, steady, and safe electricity. It utilizes smart meters for billing, phasor measurement units to check the system's health., etc. As a result, it contains enormous volumes of real-time data that may be shared and stored by users, control centers, and services in a smart grid. It weakens the smart grid's communication networks. The size of the data in a smart grid will grow extremely in the future. As a result, it must reduce distortion in data compression and denoise while minimizing the demand on storage and communication networks. The goal of data compression and denoising should be to maximally conserve the useful data while accurately reflecting the state of the system and providing sufficient data regeneration at the receiving end. This paper has used lower-order different wavelets to represent a design to compress and reconstruct data at level three using wavelet Packet Transform. It works on the phasor measurement unit's current magnitude and voltage sag signals.
