Abstract :
This paper addresses the challenge of developing communications architecture for the Smart Grid. It considers the similarity between the QoS requirements for Smart Grid communication and those addressed by previous work into multiservice networks and QoS Architectures. It discusses this previous work within the context of Smart Grid requirements and identifies the contribution it could make to the development of Smart Grid communications architecture.
