Department of Energy, “smart grid generally refers to a class of technology that is trying to bring utility delivery systems into the 21st century” [1]. The emergence of M2M communication has also begun in developing smart grid. Such communication occurs among the different components of smart grid, such as sensors, smart meters, gateways, and other intelligent devices [2].
