Abstract

In this paper, after reviewing the basic structure for implementing WSN in smart grid, we would give a case study for implementation of such a structure in a smart home. It will be shown that using new generation cellular network structure, gives a basic improvement the infrastructure needed for gathering the information and taking a real time monitoring and control of a simplified model of a smart grid executed as a smart home. We will take the advantage of computer simulations to show the reliability of this method and finally, we will analyze the advantages of using this proposed structure in a smart grid. [1, 4].
