Ami Mesh Networks Performance Method for Demand Response in Home Energy Management System

Abstract

In this project, we first introduce a general architecture of energy management system (EMS) in a home area network (HAN) based on the smart grid and then propose an efficient scheduling method for home usage. The home gateway receives the demand response (DR) information indicating the real time electricity price that is transferred to an energy management controller (EMC). With the DR, the EMC achieve optimal power scheduling scheme that can be delivered to each electric appliance by the HG. Accordingly, all appliances in the home operate automatically in the most cost effective way. When only the real time pricing (RTP) model is adopted, there is the possibility the most appliances would operate during the time with the lowest electricity price. Our proposed power scheduling method would effectively reduce both the electricity cost and power shutdown problem using mesh topology.
