Communication architecture is a crucial component in smart grid. Most of the previous researches have been focused on the traditional Internet and proposed numerous evolutionary designs. However, the traditional network architecture has been reported with multiple inherent shortcomings, which bring unprecedented challenges for the Smart Grid. Moreover, the smart network architecture for the future Smart Grid is still unexplored. In this context, this paper proposes a clean-slate communication approach to boost the development of smart grid in the respective of Smart Identifier Network (SINET), named SI4SG. It also designs the service resolution mechanism and the ns-3 based simulating tool for the proposed communication architecture.
