Abstract

This paper is an effort towards constructing a comprehensive model for the smart grid as a network of networks with the ability of evaluating events in presence of every smart grid feature. To this end, the network modelling laws are employed to attain a proper structure for the model, the automata theory is used to explain the performance of the proposed model, and the hybrid function theory is utilized to define an appropriate mathematical description for it. By evaluating the smart grid cooperative processes, and determining the role of special smart grid features in these processes, a six-layered hierarchical structure is chosen. Each layer of this structure is considered as an automaton and its autonomous performance is described by a hybrid function, mathematically. The composition of these six hybrid functions introduces the final formulation of the model. To verify the suitability of the proposed model the mechanism of the smart load management strategy is captured.
