Abstract
The reliability and stability of communication systems are crucial for utility centres to deliver power to the consumers in an efficient manner. This chapter investigates optimal placement of Data Aggregation Units (DAUs) in smart distribution grids equipped with smart metres and smart automation devices (SADs). The DAUs are used as relay points to transmit the data from smart metres and SADs to the control centre in a cost-efficient manner. The optimization of DAU placement is done based on the iterative K-means clustering method. This work presents an optimal placement of DAUs in a wireless network, which includes smart metres and SADs that help the utilities communicate within themselves with less delay.
