An IoT-based Smart Grid Technology: Bidirectional Power Flow, Smart Energy Metering, and Home Automation

The Internet of Things (IoT) concept is one of the most popular concepts that can be applied from simple things to the smart appliances of today. IoT also helps human life to be more convenient and easier. IoT for learning and teaching in higher education is so important to help students gain their knowledge and experience before graduation and industrial work. An Introduction of IoT course for undergraduate students mostly focuses on the IoT concepts and fundamentals which may affect learners to understand well about the concepts. To apply those concepts into practice is still quite difficult for learners. This article proposes the development of a learning kit for the Smart Transformer Detection System using IoT as teaching material. The capability of this tool can help learners automatically detect and notify events using online tools. Moreover, it helps students monitor the transformer system with IoT concepts more clearly, practically, and understandingly. The study volunteered a sample group of students who used this kit in their learning and practices. Then, the sample did a survey on learning satisfaction. The results show that students were very satisfied with both accuracy of the work system and the quality of the learning kit.

The Internet of Things (IoT) has witnessed exponential growth in recent years, with billions of interconnected devices seamlessly communicating and exchanging data. While IoT offers unprecedented opportunities for innovation and convenience, it also introduces a plethora of security challenges. This abstract provides an overview of the key security concerns in IoT and explores emerging solutions to address them. Security in IoT is paramount due to the potential consequences of breaches. IoT devices are often resource-constrained and lack robust security features. Malicious actors can exploit this vulnerability to gain unauthorized access, compromise privacy, launch cyberattacks, and disrupt critical services. Therefore, securing IoT ecosystems is imperative for the continued growth and adoption of IoT technologies.

In the recent decade, there has been a lot of focus on developing intelligent systems and appliances to suit the century's needs and make life easier. During the same period, the electric power industry introduced Smart-Grid, a crucial innovation to meet today's electric supply-demand and effectively use electric resources. The smart grid is an aspect of the electricity industry's evolution and reformation. An electrical power grid is a complex system consisting of generation, transmission, distribution, storage, and utilization. Coordinating these systems further increases the complexity of this interconnection of systems. The existing power distribution system available in the industry consists of monitoring equipment such as Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition(SCADA) to monitor some network parts. However, there's no automated way of monitoring power outages or load current flow in some sub-sections of the distribution line. Physical inspection is not convenient as it's more time-consuming.Moreover, these sub-sections may have up to ten distribution transformers or even could be more. In this work, A novel IoT-based power line monitoring system has been introduced to overcome those issues. Narrow Band Internet of Things(NB-IoT) is used in this system as the primary wireless technology. A current sensor measures electrical line currents, and sensor values are pushed to a remote IoT cloud. Implemented system tested in several 33kV power lines and result and performances of the system is presented.
