At present, the standardisation of electrical equipment communications is on the rise. In particular, manufacturers are releasing equipment for the smart grid endowed with communication protocols such as DNP3, IEC 61850, and MODBUS. However, there are legacy equipment operating in the electricity distribution network that cannot communicate using a...
To improve the efficiency of electricity distribution, smart grids allow communication between their devices. Pieces of legacy equipment operating in the distribution network do not communicate using any commercial protocol, such as DNP3, IEC 61850, or Modbus. Thus, herein, a middleware is proposed to allow the integration of the legacy electrical...
In this paper, we present an integration model of residencies' electrical meters into the structure of smart grid using WSN. The model was validated by a prototype implemented and tested in a controlled environment. The WSN, developed based on standard IEEE 802.15.4 communication, contains sensor nodes with an ARM Cortex M4 platform-based kits, fro...
The Interest in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs) has been growing due to its good and easy maneuverability, thrust-to-weight ratio and ability to take off and land vertically. While ever smaller components become cheaper and easily available, the motivation for creating these vehicles both for the private sector as universities has increased. This pa...
Electric power industries have expanded the automation of their networks in recent years to meet the growing demands for improvements in services. The introduction of the concept of Smart Grid, the increased availability of smart devices and improvements in telecommunications are key factors for that. Besides the benefits in control and management...
Although the concept of Smart Grid is not so new, it has aroused the interest of electric companies only in recent years and some countries still lack major studies on methods, techniques and rules. There are many devices that work with legacy or proprietary protocols within the grid that can not be replaced, making it difficult and endearing unifi...
Due to vandalism or weather conditions, disruption or damage in high voltage transmission line insulators may occur, causing a risk to the electricity supply for many cities. Studies show that the insulators states can be known by the value of the leakage current which passes through them and by other variables. In this paper, we present a context-...
Currently, electricity distributors make use of various types of equipment divided into levels of automation. This automation enables the integration of elements such as Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) to the supervision of the distribution electrical system, but there is not an appropriate environment to increase the scale of these elements....
Rede de Sensores Sem Fio (RSSF) é um conjunto de nós sensores organizados em uma rede cooperativa (HILL et al., 2000), com cada nó possuindo capacidade de processamento, memória, transceptor de RF e baterias. O sensoriamento de cada nó sensor e a comunicação entre eles são utilizados para monitorar e atuar sobre os mais diversos ambientes. O objeti...
