Wireless sensor network for information based domestic power management

Abstract

Residential power consumption and the increasing environmental pollution emitted from the electric generators have lead to the energy management focus. To minimize the power consumption, the overall efficiency of electrical networks must have to be improved. Smart Grid concept has played an important role in moving towards better energy management. The current technologies and projects fail to address the energy waste issue and has given less afford on standby power management and energy monitoring. In this paper, we focus on the energy waste issue and proposed a wireless sensor network for gathering contextual information and controlling the domestic power consumption. Our proposed wireless sensor network consists of multi-modal multi-sensor nodes which is used to monitor different activities and movements, environmental factors and the power consumption of the appliances. Then it controls the operation of the appliances and manages their power consumption according to the gathered contextual information from the nodes thereby it prevents power consumption on unused or unnecessary services.

Trends and Perspectives of Renewable Energy Based on Microgrids: A Bibliometric Approach

“…El horizonte temporal se determinó a base de los principales hitos y puntos de inflexión del tema tratado. Los primeros intentos de proponer métodos para la evaluación de sistemas inteligentes, donde se proponían la incorporación de las fuentes de energías sostenible, se realizaron en la década del 2000 [22]. Es por ello por lo que, considerando el número de documentos seleccionados y los hitos relevantes, para analizar las tendencias se subdividieron en cuatro períodos (2001-2006, 2007-2011, 2012-2016 y 2017-2021).…”
