Infrastructure for real-time communication in smart grid

The existing electricity grid is subjected to numerous challenges that are expected to be overcome by Smart Grid. It is expected to provide utility companies with better visibility and pervasive control over their assets and services. There is no full-proof technology that can provide real-time communication in Smart Grid. This paper explores the possible infrastructure for real-time communication in Smart Grid with modern techniques. Reliable communication can be maintained with better Quality of services. The paper also proposes the innovative algorithm to decongest the network for optimum bandwidth utilization. It is possible to have real-time communication of Big data in Smart Grid through right messages priority and better bandwidth utilization technique of Cognitive Radio.
