The scope of this section includes fundamental and applied research articles, as well as survey and tutorial style articles that contribute significantly to the understanding of a topic related to smart grid communications. Areas covered by this section include, but are not limited to:
· Scalable network and system architecture (e.g., FAN, HAN, NAN, and BAN) for smart grids
· Communication protocols optimized for (real-time) information collection and control applications
· Machine learning-based smart grid communications
· Fifth generation (5G) and machine type communications (MTC)
· Power Line Communications (PLC)
· Capacity and network planning, resource and service discovery
· Self-healing and adaptive communication protocols and algorithms
· Physical and MAC layer protocols for smart grid communications
· Multi-hop communication and mesh networking
· Coexistence, convergence and interoperability mechanism
· Performance of smart metering and smart grid communication solutions
· Performance of electric vehicle and their supply equipment networks
· Performance of microgrid communication networks
· Joint communication and control for smart energy systems
· Interoperability and performance of communication solutions for substation automation and control of distributed energy resources
· Results from field trials
Submissions in all styles including full-transactions papers (original research), tutorials/surveys (review), magazines (mini review) and letters (brief research report) are encouraged. All studies must contribute significantly to the smart grid communications literature. All submissions will be rigorously reviewed by the experts in the field.
