Service priority based reliable routing path select method in smart grid communication network

The new challenges and schemes for the Smart Grid require high reliable transmission technologies to support various types of electrical services and applications. This paper concentrates the degree of importance of services and tries to allocate more important service to more reliable network routing path to deliver the key instructions in the Smart Grid communication networks. Pareto probability distribution is used to weight the reliability of IP-based router path. Inorder to definition the relationship of service and reliability of router path, we devise a mapping and optimal functionis presented to access. An optimal method is used for adapting to find the appropriate value to match the objective function. Finally, we validate the proposed algorithms by experiments. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the random routing algorithms. © 2012 International Journal of Computer Science Issues.
