Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

It is almost impossible to imagine a modern society without devices constantly connected to the Internet. The number of such devices is constantly growing, not only in the conventional fields of application, but also in new areas, including smart grids, smart houses, smart transportation, autonomous vehicles, robotics, etc. This growth has called for advances in the materials, design techniques, algorithms, modelling tools and manufacturing technologies of modern devices and gadgets. The concept of the Internet of Things further revolutionized many habitual areas of human life. However, devices interconnected in networks are heavily dependent on electric power. Therefore, their proper operation depends on effective energy use, especially when undergoing the transition from unidirectional power supply patterns to a multi-energy market. In general, the planning of multi-layer heterogeneous networks with complex topology is an important task, because the energy efficiency of integrated technologies needs to be improved. Heterogeneous networks of energies have further accelerated the revolution of energy structure and operational modes of IoT systems and devices. Thus, the combination of energy-efficient planning and the diversification of energy sources for IoT represents an effective way to resolve the global energy crisis and climate change by reducing carbon emissions. The ongoing scientific revolution in the field of IoT is affecting and integrating various types of networks, systems, and devices, leading to the need for the coordination of energy generation, energy distribution, the operation of energy systems, and the IoT system, as well as separate devices as a single bundle. This requires the study of aspects of energy efficiency in IoT, especially with respect to planning energy-efficient algorithms, structure designs, and promising techniques for real-world applications that will improve energy efficiency at various scales, from separate devices to large systems.

Therefore, this Special Issue is focused on studies presenting new ideas, advanced theories, and experimental results in the field of the energy-efficient operation of modern IoT systems.

Tests on the content of the electrical component of the electromagnetic field (EMF) were carried out with an NHT3DL broadband meter by Microrad using a 01E (100 kHz ÷ 6.5 GHz) measuring probe. Measurements were made during training flights (Cessna C172, Cessna C152, Aero AT3, and Technam P2006T aircrafts). A neural network was used, the task of which was to learn to predict the successive values of average (ERMS) and instantaneous (EPEAK) electromagnetic fields used here. Such a solution would make it possible to determine the most favorable routes for all aircrafts. This article presents a model of an artificial neural network which aims to predict the intensity of the electrical component of the electromagnetic field. In order to create the developed model, that is, to create a training sequence for the model, a series of measurements was carried out on four types of aircraft (Cessna C172, Cessna C152, Aero AT3, and Technam P2006T). The model was based on long short-term memory (LSTM) layers. The tests carried out showed that the accuracy of the model was higher than that of the reference method. The developed model was able to estimate the electrical component for the vicinity of the routes on which it was trained in order to optimize the exposure of the aircraft to the electrical component of the electromagnetic field. In addition, it allowed for data analysis of the same training flight routes. The reference point for the obtained electric energy results were the normative limits of the electromagnetic field that may affect the crew and passengers during a flight. Monitoring and measuring the electromagnetic field generated by devices is important from an environmental point of view, as well as for the purposes of human body protection and electromagnetic compatibility. In order to improve reliability in general aviation and to adapt to the proposed requirements, aviation training centers are obliged to introduce systems for supervising and analyzing flight parameters.

The digitalization of production in smart grids entails challenges related to data collection, coordination, privacy protection, and anomaly detection. Machine learning techniques offer effective tools for processing Big Data, but identifying critical system states amidst vast amounts of data remains a challenge. To expedite data analysis, preprocessing through machine learning algorithms becomes essential. This paper introduces the advanced FedSVD algorithm, utilizing Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), which efficiently decomposes large datasets, establishes relationships, and identifies irrelevant data. The algorithm operates in federated machine learning systems, enabling local data processing on private devices while sharing only results with the global learning model. This approach enhances information processing confidentiality and facilitates the exchange of anomaly detection outcomes among network devices. The results of the study demonstrate that the modified FedSVD processing is 5 ms faster on average in comparison to the non-modified one. The proposed FedSVD algorithm calculates anomaly detection with higher accuracy by an average of 1–3% compared to the non-modified FedSVD and SVD ones. The advanced FedSVD algorithm proves to be a decentralized, confidential, and efficient solution for anomaly detection in smart grid systems. Full article
