DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.

TIME DIVISION MULTIPLEXING TECHNIQUE FOR COMMUNICATION SYSTEMHODECEDSIET
Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) is a method of transmitting multiple signals over a single communication channel by dividing the signal into many segments, each having a very short duration of time. These time slots are then allocated to different data streams, allowing multiple signals to share the same transmission medium efficiently. TDM is widely used in telecommunications and data communication systems.
### How TDM Works
1. **Time Slots Allocation**: The core principle of TDM is to assign distinct time slots to each signal. During each time slot, the respective signal is transmitted, and then the process repeats cyclically. For example, if there are four signals to be transmitted, the TDM cycle will divide time into four slots, each assigned to one signal.
2. **Synchronization**: Synchronization is crucial in TDM systems to ensure that the signals are correctly aligned with their respective time slots. Both the transmitter and receiver must be synchronized to avoid any overlap or loss of data. This synchronization is typically maintained by a clock signal that ensures time slots are accurately aligned.
3. **Frame Structure**: TDM data is organized into frames, where each frame consists of a set of time slots. Each frame is repeated at regular intervals, ensuring continuous transmission of data streams. The frame structure helps in managing the data streams and maintaining the synchronization between the transmitter and receiver.
4. **Multiplexer and Demultiplexer**: At the transmitting end, a multiplexer combines multiple input signals into a single composite signal by assigning each signal to a specific time slot. At the receiving end, a demultiplexer separates the composite signal back into individual signals based on their respective time slots.
### Types of TDM
1. **Synchronous TDM**: In synchronous TDM, time slots are pre-assigned to each signal, regardless of whether the signal has data to transmit or not. This can lead to inefficiencies if some time slots remain empty due to the absence of data.
2. **Asynchronous TDM (or Statistical TDM)**: Asynchronous TDM addresses the inefficiencies of synchronous TDM by allocating time slots dynamically based on the presence of data. Time slots are assigned only when there is data to transmit, which optimizes the use of the communication channel.
### Applications of TDM
- **Telecommunications**: TDM is extensively used in telecommunication systems, such as in T1 and E1 lines, where multiple telephone calls are transmitted over a single line by assigning each call to a specific time slot.
- **Digital Audio and Video Broadcasting**: TDM is used in broadcasting systems to transmit multiple audio or video streams over a single channel, ensuring efficient use of bandwidth.
- **Computer Networks**: TDM is used in network protocols and systems to manage the transmission of data from multiple sources over a single network medium.
### Advantages of TDM
- **Efficient Use of Bandwidth**: TDM all
Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

Advanced control scheme of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbine us...IJECEIAES
This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.

13. Dr. Jana Jagodick Polytechnic

Project Specification
• Used as the basis for planning
• Specification – is the definition of your
project (often in the charter)
• Will probably need to be refined as
many errors are likely to exist from
when 1st put together
14. Dr. Jana Jagodick Polytechnic
of Namibia, 2012
Project Specifications - Errors
• Errors can arise from
•Holistic perspective
•The interfaces
•Timescales
•External dependencies
•Resources
15. Dr. Jana Jagodick Polytechnic
of Namibia, 2012
Holistic Perspective
• May have taken too narrow a
perspective
• May duplicate or impact other
work carried out
• May be incompatible with other
work
16. Dr. Jana Jagodick Polytechnic
of Namibia, 2012
Interfaces
• Transfer points
• Agree on what, how and when
• It is a well known fact that most
miscommunications occur at the
interfaces
17. Dr. Jana Jagodick Polytechnic
of Namibia, 2012
Timescales
• People who draw up specifications
often underestimate time involved
for tasks
• Remember the Sydney Opera
House example
18. Dr. Jana Jagodick Polytechnic
of Namibia, 2012
External dependencies
• Project tasks may depend on the
tasks of others
• Make this clear so people
involved know in advance of your
needs – and are able to meet
them!
19. Dr. Jana Jagodick Polytechnic
of Namibia, 2012
Resources
• People tend to ignore resources
• Most projects need materials,
equipment and staff
• Check that the numbers are
practical and correct

Determining Milestones
An activity with zero duration
usually marking the end of a
period i.e. the completion of
a number of activities
Come up with some
milestones you
will pass in doing the
Project Management course

Compile a task list
Once the milestones
have been determined,
a project task list can be
put together, giving the
task a number and
description and a time
period

Estimating Time
“An overestimate of the time for the project is crucial
for its success” Healy
Estimating time can be done in 3 different ways:
1.Time comparison (being able to compare tasks
with similar tasks that have been done before)
2.Setting a time on the basis of milestones (based
on the date of expected launch – so when is it
needed)
3.Build up a picture of durations using detailed
expanation of how the project comes together
26. Dr. Jana Jagodick Polytechnic

Contingency
You cannot predict everything that will happen in your
project, so you need to build in ‘contingency’ or buffer
This is a way of treating risk!

28. Dr. Jana Jagodick Polytechnic

Schedule
• Schedules show the task name and start and finish
date for each task
• Schedules are only estimates
• They will have to change with time but are useful
starting points

• Analyse the organisation’s cost of
time
• Project planning
• Scheduling
• Job clarification

32. Dr. Jana Jagodick Polytechnic
of Namibia, 2012
Job Clarification
Ask the questions:
• What is the purpose of the job/task/activity?
• What are the measures of success?
• What are priorities and deadlines?
• What is exceptional performance?
• What resources are available?
• What costs are acceptable?
• How does this relate to other people and tasks?
Getting answers will help clarify the job

Monitor Progress
• Helps to ensure that the project is on
schedule and is progressing
according to plan
• Goals and milestones help to ensure
this
