Description

This report describes a fall 2014 survey of the design and deployment of the synchrophasor data networks used by some of the operational entities of the North American electric power industry. This survey was focused on wide-area networking for real-time streaming of measurement data collected by phasor measurement units (PMUs) in substations and delivered to control room and off-line applications for transmission owners and reliability coordinators. These applications employ complex and sophisticated algorithms to convert PMU field data into high-value operational and planning information.
