6.  IEEE 802.15.4 was proposed for wireless personal area network communication.  Physical layer and data link layer  Characteristics: short distance transmission 、 low power consumption 、 low cost  ZigBee  Based on IEEE 802.15.4  Network layer and application layer 6 Smart Grid-ZigBee

7.  Local network and Internet  ZigBee devices can communicate with each other.  ZigBee devices can not communicate with servers directly on the Internet.  An additional mechanism is required. Smart Grid-ZigBee(cont.) 7

8.  6LoWPAN （ IPv6 over Low-Power Wireless Personal Area Networks ）  Based on IEEE 802.15.4  Network layer – IPv6  Compatible with Internet  Do not need additional protocol translation. Smart Grid - 6LoWPAN 8

9. ZigBee/6LoWPAN 9

10.  There is still no universal network management protocol standard to manage two different types of ZigBee and 6LoWPAN devices.  This paper proposed Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) application layer protocol to manage ZigBee and 6LoWPAN WSNs. 10 Problem

11.  Control communication protocol  Point to point  Multiple points  Applications  Voice over Internet Protocol(VoIP)  Instant Message  Network Management Network management-SIP 11

12.  IPv6 and SIP are added to the Smart Grid management system.  Smart Grid  ZigBee-based  6LoWPAN-based  Hybrid  SIP network management module 12 System Architecture

16. SIP network management module 16 Subscribe / Notify Instant Message

17. Subscribe and Notify Module 17  Servers can subscribe data which it wants to monitor from end devices.  Example:  Electricity consumption  Temperature of meter

18. Instant Message Module 18  Servers can send commands to devices.  Example:  Shutting down or starting devices  Changing devices settings

19.  This paper compared the communication protocols between power plants and clients, and suggested how network management applications can be carried on these protocols.  Two major network management protocols: SNMP(Simple Network Management Protocol)and SIP. 19 Conclusion and future work

20.  Comparing SNMP and SIP, especially analyzing the transmission performance and the system resources consumption on a device.  This would allow administrators to manage a smart grid with the best management protocol. Conclusion and future work (cont.) 20
