AMI and Its Wireless Communication Security Aspects with QOS: A Review

Abstract

Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) is a vital part of smart grid (SG).The communication infrastructure is a key element of AMI. This paper focuses on wireless communication security for AMI. Also, this paper reviews research on various different schemes for security of wireless communication infrastructure with the aim—to examine the newly emerged wireless communication technology; to identify the different kinds of attack on wireless communication infrastructure; to investigate research direction for security in AMI; to identify the different algorithms to overcome different kinds of attack; and to identify the different simulation platform for analyzing the different parameters. The survey of this paper tries to provide information the possibility of different kinds of attacks on communication infrastructure with their solution. This paper focuses on the security of wireless communication infrastructure of the AMI by providing routing algorithm, by avoiding the previous algorithm’s problem. The proposed algorithm is dynamic source destination sequenced distance vector routing (DS2DVR) which improves the security of wireless communication infrastructure. Different kinds of attack are considered for security. For simulation, network simulator 2(NS2) is used.
