Abstract
In recent years there have been an enduring argument regarding the mobilization of finest sustainable and economically feasible smart grid communication technology. One of the most suitable structure of communication technology for the future smart grid networks is Wireless Communication Technology (WCT). WCT networks can be conveniently commissioned with truncated capital and operational expenditures. The primary demands of the smart grid networks data traffic distribution can be categorized in two segments. First segment includes Home Area Network (HAN), where there is a direct connectivity between the consumer premises and utility billing department. Second segment includes direct connectivity between the utility power control distribution centre and Power generation facility. Previously the use of Power Line Communication (PLC) was suggested for providing communication connectivity. The major drawbacks of Power Line Communication are capital installation cost and 99.9% communication availability in the event of bad weather conditions and natural disasters. In this research we propose the use of two wireless communication technologies. In first segment Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) a type of Very High Frequency (VHF) Land Mobile Radio system (LMRS), can be commissioned between the consumer premises and utility billing department for the exchange of data traffic. In Second segment Microwave Backhaul Transmission in Super High Frequency (SHF) band can be utilized as a backhaul connectivity solution between the utility power control distribution centre and Power generation. Further by using Digital Mobile Radio and Microwave Transmission we can establish a smart grid green communication networks which will be economical with respect to deployment cost and efficient with respect to on line service availability.
