Smart grid sensor

According to Dr. William Kao of California Polytechnic University, the sensor network will be a key driver for providing real-time information to the smart grid. Among them, the measurement indexes needed for the smart grid can be divided into the following six categories:

Voltage, Current, Temperature, Humidity, Continuity, and Phase Measurement Important smart grid applications include Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), Smart Voltage Sensors, Capacitor Remote Control, Power Failure Detection, Transformer Monitoring, High Voltage Line Temperature, Weather Conditions, Distributed Generation and Load Balancing, Energy Storage and Dispatch.

Key applications in related industries include smart buildings, home energy management systems, smart urban transportation systems, and urban precision agriculture.

However, there may be a major limiting factor in the promotion of sensors, that is, data fusion requirements - data collection, screening, aggregation and analysis from multiple sources. In addition, lack of interoperability is also a hindrance to the development of the sensor market. Big constraints.
