文摘

Smart meters take measurements at minute intervals of time. The energy disaggregation of smart meter data provides accurate information regarding the electricity consumption but also reveals detailed information pertaining to the customer. Load signatures-that is unique for every appliance can be used to declare the behavioral pattern of the customers such as their sleep-wake cycles, usage period of various appliances, time during which the house is empty and by far, which particular channel is being viewed on the television. The smart meter data is transmitted to the utility company at regular intervals of time over the internet. Data that has such potential to access private information can be tampered with, by an undesirable third party during transmission. This is a vital privacy threat to the customer and has hyped the researches pertaining to smart meter data security in the recent times. To assure security, we introduce an algorithm that aims at encryption of data prior to transmission. The algorithm employs the FFT algorithm and various nonlinear systems to generate chaotic signals. The obtained chaotic signal is amalgamated with a transformed version of the smart meter data and securely transmitted over a suitable network. The proposed algorithm is tested on a real household's power signal data.
