Abstract

In smart grid infrastructure, where Smart Meters continuously send usage data to central servers for invoicing, monitoring, and optimization, data transmission reliability is crucial. However, transmission mistakes brought on by noise, interference, and signal attenuation can impair system performance. In this study, the Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) is used and tested as an error detection method in Smart Meter communication networks. In comparison to conventional parity approaches, CRC offers greater safety by using polynomial division to identify single-bit and burst mistakes with high accuracy. To investigate the operational efficacy, bandwidth effect, and error detection properties of CRC, a smart grid network was simulated using Cisco Packet Tracer. These findings confirm that CRC is a cost-effective, scalable, and safe method for ensuring dependable communication in wide-area smart grid configurations.
