A feasibility study of the power infrastructure defense system protocol through the network traffic analysis with its simulator

It is necessary to maintain stabilized operation of the power system responding to a severely adverse condition in the system. There is a need to develop the intelligent Power Grid Monitoring System, In which the PMU(Phasor Measurement Unit) measures the synchrophasor and transmits it to the PIDS(Power Infrastructure Defense System). The IEEE PC37.118 protocol defines the message format to implement the communication of both the PMU and the PIDS. In this paper, we measure and analyze the network traffic from simulation of the PMU to simulation of the PIDS according to the network routing, a time zone and latency, and thus verify the protocol in the PIDS.
