title = "Dualistic assessment of communication technology performance for control of large-scale smart distribution grids",
abstract = "The integration of Distributed Energy Resources (DER) and functionalities such as Demand Side Management (DSM) or Automated Meter Reading (AMR) into the electrical grid is progressing with the move towards a more environmentally friendly, decentralized approach to power generation. As deployments of these Smart Grids become more pervasive, advanced monitoring and control schemes lead to an increased importance of communication infrastructures, as they are instrumental in achieving a manageable and stable distribution grid. Therefore the available choices in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have to be assessed regarding their capabilities to support the necessary control algorithms and thereby the overall use cases. In this work a dualistic approach employing simulations as well as physical testbeds is presented. This serves to achieve a comprehensive assessment of communication network performance supporting utilities in rollout decisions for large-scale Smart Distribution Grid deployments.",
