Abstract:
This paper describes the architecture of an ubiquitous control solution for smart grids, distributed process control nodes, home automation and wide-area measurement systems. The proposed architecture is based on a next generation network as control and integration platform. Every network entity, like sensors, actors or process control nodes, has a Session Initiation Protocol Uniform Resource Identifier and presence status. The real-time, two-way information and process control communication between the network entities on the one side, and the grid and process control network operators or facility manager and house owners on the other side, will be realized via the Session Initiation Protocol and Presence Service. The main achievement of this paper is a detailed system design with a description of the used components and a first prototype implementation.
