Secure message exchange protocol for Smart Grids

Smart Grid (SG) communication become very hot topic for smart, intelligent and distributed transmission systems for electric power. However, security issues are still open and this is one of main concerns to the deployment of SG. In order to cope with this challenging concern, we propose secure message exchange protocol in this paper, for secure communication in SG system. Particularly, in the proposed protocol, we pay attention to robustness and resistance of exchanged messages to external noise, with a certain level of self-correction. Robustness and resistance to external noise is due to Quick Response (QR) code properties.
