Cognitive Internet of Things (C-IOT)

Energy conservation is one of the essential requirements for the betterment of the Earth’s future. The main objective of this chapter is to provide an effective framework of smart grid (SG) using the intelligence of cognitive radio network (CRN). The SG connectivity will be enhanced by using the functionality of internet of things (IoT). Using IoT, the devices between the consumers, manufactures, and energy source provider (government) can conserve resources and economy. In this chapter, the requirement of smart grid, the need for IoT technology in SG, and the usage of CRN in SG are all elaborated. The infrastructural design pattern of cognitive radio-IoT-based smart grid is introduced in this chapter.
