Design and Implementation of Wireless Ad Hoc Smart Metering System for Power Quality

In order to facilitate the advanced measurement system with real-time interaction in smart grid and to satisfy the requirements for power quality management, a wireless ad hoc smart metering system for power quality using Internet of things (IoTs) technology is presented in the paper. By utilizing the energy metering module to collect energy information, the ZigBee ad hoc networks to transmit energy information, and the user monitoring terminal to support power grids management, the proposed system is able to efficiently realize the power quality information collection, transmission, processing and sharing. Experimental results demonstrate that the system performs real-time and precious monitoring of the distributed client power quality information, together with friendly and intelligent interaction capability.
