Abstract
With the introduction of an automated electric power system known as smart grid, issues relating to power quality, shortages and inefficiency has been solved, One vital foundation necessary for the sustainability and stability of smart grid (SG) is a secured, reliable, stable and efficient communication network infrastructure. The aim of this paper is to examine smart grid communication networks (SGCN) and propose a SGCN architecture that is energy efficient with the integration of cognitive radio technology. The SGCN architecture is layered into the Home Area Network (HAN), Neighbourhood Area Network (HAN) and the Wide Area Network (WAN) and each layer is analyzed. The paper also examine the motivation behind the employment of CR in SGCN and the challenges involved in designing an effective and reliable SGCN Infrastructure.
