We will position the work within the smart grid framework\, and motivate its interest in this r egard. We will then go over some of the sources of electromagnetic noise t hat are present within power substations and which make it a hostile envir onment for classical wireless communications. Specific measurement campaig ns have allowed us to characterize the EM noise in substations\, and in pa rticular its impulsive nature\; we will describe some of the models develo ped as well as an example of receiver adapted to this type of noise. Final ly\, we will touch upon a few additional potential avenues to enable wirel ess communications within substations.\n\nSpeaker(s): Fabrice Labeau - Ass ociate Professor McGill University\, \, \, \n\nAgenda: \n11:00 Introductio n to IEEE Vehicular Technology Society\n\n11:10 Technical Presentation: Sm art Grid within power substations: specific wireless communications challe nges\n\n12:00 Conclusion\n\nRoom: 49-502\, Bldg: Advanced Engineering Buil ding (#49)\, St Lucia Campus\, The University of Queensland\, Brisbane\, Q ueensland\, Australia LOCATION:Room: 49-502\, Bldg: Advanced Engineering Building (#49)\, St Luci a Campus\, The University of Queensland\, Brisbane\, Queensland\, Australi a ORGANIZER:chandima@ieee.org SEQUENCE:1 SUMMARY:Smart Grid within power substations: specific wireless communicatio ns challenges URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/46422 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p><span lang="EN-CA">In this talk\, we will report the work carried out over the last few years in the framework of an active collaboration with Hydro-Quebec\, the power utility in the provinc e of Quebec\, Canada\, for the deployment of wireless technologies within power substations. &nbsp\;We will position the work within the smart grid framework\, and motivate its interest in this regard.
