Smart Grids provide many benefits for society. Reliability, observability across the energy distribution system and the exchange of information between devices are just some of the features that make Smart Grids so attractive. One of the main products of a Smart Grid is to data. The amount of data available nowadays increases fast and carries several kinds of information. Smart metres allow engineers to perform multiple measurements and analyse such data. For example, information about consumption, power quality and digital protection, among others, can be extracted. However, the main challenge in extracting information from data arises from the data quality. In fact, many sectors of the society can benefit from such data. Hence, this information needs to be properly stored and readily available. In this chapter, we will address the main concepts involving Technology Information, Data Mining, Big Data and clustering for deploying information on Smart Grids.

The concept of “smart city” is often used implying that the reader has a clear and common notion of what it means. However, in the current literature it is very hard to find a precise definition. What is even more interesting, it is not so easy to find a precise definition of what a city is.

The Internet of Things is considered to be the next big opportunity, and challenge, for the Internet engineering community, users of technology, companies and society as a whole. It involves connecting embedded devices such as sensors, home appliances, weather stations and even toys to Internet Protocol (IP) based networks. The number of IP-enabled embedded devices is increasing rapidly, and although hard to estimate, will surely outnumber the number of personal computers (PCs) and servers in the future. With the advances made over the past decade in microcontroller,low-power radio, battery and microelectronic technology, the trend in the industry is for smart embedded devices (called smart objects) to become IP-enabled, and an integral part of the latest services on the Internet. These services are no longer cyber, just including data created by humans, but are to become very connected to the physical world around us by including sensor data, the monitoring and control of machines, and other kinds of physical context. We call this latest frontier of the Internet, consisting of wireless low-power embedded devices, the Wireless Embedded Internet. Applications that this new frontier of the Internet enable are critical to the sustainability, efficiency and safety of society and include home and building automation, healthcare, energy efficiency, smart grids and environmental monitoring to name just a few.

A decade ago, I first wrote that people moved, and networks needed to adapt to the reality that people worked on the go. Of course, in those days, wireless LANs came with a trade-off. Yes, you could use them while moving, but you had to trade a great deal of throughput to get the mobility. Although it was possible to get bits anywhere, even while in motion, those bits came slower. As one of the network engineers I worked with put it, “We’ve installed switched gigabit Ethernet everywhere on campus, so I don’t understand why you’d want to go back to what is a 25-megabit hub.” He un- derestimated the allure of working on the go.

Over the past few decades, wireless communications and networking have witnessed an unprecedented growth, and have become pervasive much sooner than anyone could have predicted. For example, cellular wireless networks are expected to become the dominant and ubiquitous telecommunication means in the next few decades. The widespread success of cellular and WLAN systems prompts the development of advanced wireless systems to provide access to information services beyond voice such as telecommuting, video conferencing, interactive media, real-time internet gaming, and so on, anytime and anywhere.

The book you’re holding, physically or electronically, is the result of a very interesting, challenging but also rewarding research project. The research was carried out in different contexts and cooperations but it was centered around the following question: how can we make the RF transmitters of our modern com- munication systems (WiFi, GSM, LTE, and so on) more flexible and more efficient at the same time.

It is commonly accepted today that optical fiber communications have revolutionized telecommunications. Indeed, dramatic changes have been induced in the way we interact with our relatives, friends, and colleagues: we retrieve information, we entertain and educate ourselves, we buy and sell, we organize our activities, and so on, in a long list of activities. Optical fiber systems initially allowed for a significant curb in the cost of transmission and later on they sparked the process of a major rethinking regarding some, generation-old, telecommunication concepts like the (OSI)-layer definition, the lack of cross-layer dependency, the oversegmentation and overfragmentation of telecommunica- tions networks, and so on.

The new digital radio system DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting, nowadays often called Digital Radio) is a very innovative and universal multimedia broadcast system which will replace the existing AM and FM audio broadcast services in many parts of the world in the future. It was developed in the 1990s by the Eureka 147/DAB project. DAB is very well suited for mobile reception and provides very high robustness against multipath reception. It allows use of single frequency networks (SFNs) for high frequency efficiency.

The next-generation wireless broadband technology is changing the way we work, live, learn, and communicate through effective use of state- of-the-art mobile broadband technology. The packet-data-based revolu- tion started around 2000 with the introduction of 1x Evolved Data Only (1xEV-DO) and 1x Evolved Data Voice (1xEV-DV) in 3GPP2 and High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) in 3GPP. The wireless broad- band fourth-generation technology (4G) is an evolution of the packet- based 3G system and provides a comprehensive evolution of the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System specifications so as to remain competitive with other broadband systems such as 802.16e (WiMAX)

During the past two decades there has been a substantial growth in research in wireless communications. The number of journals published from various parts of the world catering to the research community has grown exponentially. Despite such a growth, the engineering community still needs more information so as to thoroughly comprehend wireless channel characteristics. What specifically must be understood are the effects of channel degradation brought on by statistical fluctua- tions in the channel.
