Large scale distributed measurement systems are the object of several applications and research works. The goal of the present work is to develop, by employing GPS receivers, measurement techniques suited to the continuous monitoring of the electrical quantities in distribution networks, in terms of synchronized phasors. The proposed measurement procedures, differently from commercially available Phasor Measurements Units (PMUs), are based on general-purpose acquisition hardware and processing software, thus guaranteeing the possibility to be easily reconfigured and reprogrammed, according to the specific requirements of the different possible fields of application and to their future developments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
