Increasing Smart Meter Privacy Through Energy Harvesting and Storage Devices
, IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, Vol: 31, Pages: 1331-1341, ISSN: 1558-0008Smart meters are key elements for the operation of smart grids. By providing near realtime information on the energy consumption of individual users, smart meters increase the efficiency in generation, distribution and storage of energy in a smart grid. The ability of the utility provider to track users' energy consumption inevitably leads to important threats to privacy. In this paper, privacy in a smart metering system is studied from an information theoretic perspective in the presence of energy harvesting and storage units. It is shown that energy harvesting provides increased privacy by diversifying the energy source, while a storage device can be used to increase both the energy efficiency and the privacy of the user. For given input load and energy harvesting rates, it is shown that there exists a trade-off between the information leakage rate, which is used to measure the privacy of the user, and the wasted energy rate, which is a measure of the energy-efficiency. The impact of the energy harvesting rate and the size of the storage device on this trade-off is also studied.

A Learning Theoretic Approach to Energy Harvesting Communication System Optimization
, IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, Vol: 12, Pages: 1872-1882, ISSN: 1536-1276A point-to-point wireless communication system in which the transmitter isequipped with an energy harvesting device and a rechargeable battery, isstudied. Both the energy and the data arrivals at the transmitter are modeledas Markov processes. Delay-limited communication is considered assuming thatthe underlying channel is block fading with memory, and the instantaneouschannel state information is available at both the transmitter and thereceiver. The expected total transmitted data during the transmitter'sactivation time is maximized under three different sets of assumptionsregarding the information available at the transmitter about the underlyingstochastic processes. A learning theoretic approach is introduced, which doesnot assume any a priori information on the Markov processes governing thecommunication system. In addition, online and offline optimization problems arestudied for the same setting. Full statistical knowledge and causal informationon the realizations of the underlying stochastic processes are assumed in theonline optimization problem, while the offline optimization problem assumesnon-causal knowledge of the realizations in advance. Comparing the optimalsolutions in all three frameworks, the performance loss due to the lack of thetransmitter's information regarding the behaviors of the underlying Markovprocesses is quantified.

Introduction
, The Oxford Handbook of Health EconomicsThe discipline of health economics builds on the insights of microeconomic theory and has developed a substantial empirical basis. It has contributed significantly to addressing and understanding the profound health issues confronted in almost all countries, and has a large impact on the development, implementation, and evaluation of health systems policy. This article helps to investigate areas of interest to policymakers. It discusses the best way to organize and compensate health care providers and describes the rapid growth in expenditure in most developed countries. It discusses the factors that have driven this growth, such as population aging, general economic growth, and the adoption and use of new medical technologies. It surveys the successes and lacunae of the health economics research endeavor and hopes that such successes will be replicated and extended in the future.

On the use of LEO satellite constellation for active network management in power distribution networks
, IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid, Vol: 3, Pages: 1371-1381, ISSN: 1949-3053The passive nature of power distribution networkshas been changing to an active one in recent years as the number of small-scale Distributed Generators (DGs) connected to them rises. The consensus of recent research is that currentslow central network control based upon Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems is no longer sufficient and Distributed Network Operators (DNOs) wish to adopt novelmanagement mechanisms coupled with advanced communication infrastructures to meet the emerging control challenges. In thispaper, we address this issue from the communication perspective by exploiting the effectiveness of using a Low Earth Orbit (LEO)satellite network as the key component of the underlying communication infrastructure to support a recently suggested activenetwork management solution. The key factors that would affect the communication performance over satellite links are discussed and an analytical LEO network model is presented. The delivery performance of several major data services for supporting the management solution is evaluated against a wide range of satellitelink delay and loss conditions under both normal and emergency traffic scenarios through extensive simulation experiments. Our investigation demonstrates encouraging results which suggests that a LEO network can be a viable communication solution for managing the next-generation power energy networks.
