hi there guys I would like to share with you this nice master thesis about Latency and Bandwidth Analysis of LTE for a Smart Grid if you find it useful please add thanks and reputation.
Abstract:
Smart grid has been proposed as an alternative to the traditional electric-ity grid recently thanks to its advantages of real time control on consumptiondemands. The latest wireless network, 3GPP Long Term Evolution (LTE),is considered to be a promising solution to interconnecting the smart objectsin a smart grid because LTE provides both low latency and large bandwidth.However, the theories and standards for deploying a smart grid are still understudy. Furthermore, the performance of LTE network depends on the userdevices’ conditions as well as the network service operators. Therefore it isimportant to analyze the performance of LTE network experimentally. In thismaster thesis report, the specific requirements in terms of latency and band-width were first determined for a hypothetical smart microgrid which consistsof several key components, such as one substation/distributed generation, Pha-sor Measurements Units (PMU) and Advanced Meter Infrastructures (AMI).Then the latency and the peak data rats of the LTE networks provided by two service operators TELE2 and TELIA were investigated and compared. Theexperimental results show that both latency and peak data rate of the LTEnetwork provided by TELE2 fulfil the requirements for the smart microgrid,while the LTE network provided by TELIA gives a little longer latency. In ad-dition, the simulation results based on a proposed scheduler indicate that thelatency can be improved by an appropriate scheduler. This study has proventhat LTE network is a promising solution for smart grids.
