Wireless is Everywhere • Mobile phone • Voice communication • Facebook access • Transportation • Contactless ticket • Health • Sensors monitor body condition, e.g. heart rate
Challenges and Research Topics • Green: mobile phones can be used longer • Efficient: mobile data transmission is fast • Reliable: data transmission is successful • Secure: private information is protected
Topic 1: Home Energy Management System (HEMS) • Background • Many energy-hungry appliances in a house • Goal • Reduce energy consumption in HEMS • Approach • Survey of HEMS • Potentials of different • communications architectures • Propose algorithms to reduce • energy consumption • Simulate the algorithms
Topic 2: Impact of electric vehicles (EVs) on smart grid • Background • Many electric vehicles will connect to the power grid • Goal • Understand the impacts of EVs on smart grid: energy efficiency, communications and privacy requirement • Approach • Survey of demand response management (DRM) • Investigate the roles of EVs within DRM framework • Communication requirement for vehicles in charging, discharging, parking modes
