Jamming-Resilient Backup Nodes Selection for RPL-based Routing in Smart Grid AMI Networks Mobile Netw. Appl. (IF 2.602) Pub Date : 2020-09-12 Taimin Zhang, Xiaoyu Ji, Wenyuan Xu
Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) is the core component of the smart grid. As the wireless connection between smart meters in AMI is featured with high packet loss and low transmission rate, AMI is considered as a representative of the low power and lossy networks (LLNs). In such communication environment, the routing protocol in AMI network is essential to ensure the reliability and real-time
