“…The specific cyber phenomena studied was communication delay due to: cyber attack, data manipulation, and man-in-the middle attacks. Similar testbeds with physical communication connections were proposed by the authors in [62,63], with the exception that the communication system emulator used was OPNET TM . In both cases, the testbed involved the interfacing of the RTS with the monitoring and control node via a host computer running OPNET exchanging information by its System-in-the-Loop (SITL) interface.…”

The integration of smart grid technologies in interconnected power system networks presents multiple challenges for the power industry and the scientific community. To address these challenges, researchers are creating new methods for the validation of: control, interoperability, reliability of Internet of Things systems, distributed energy resources, modern power equipment for applications covering power system stability, operation, control, and cybersecurity. Novel methods for laboratory testing of electrical power systems incorporate novel simulation techniques spanning real-time simulation, Power Hardware-in-the-Loop, Controller Hardware-in-the-Loop, Power System-in-the-Loop, and co-simulation technologies. These methods directly support the acceleration of electrical systems and power electronics component research by validating technological solutions in high-fidelity environments. In this paper, members of the Survey of Smart Grid International Research Facility Network task on Advanced Laboratory Testing Methods present a review of methods, test procedures, studies, and experiences employing advanced laboratory techniques for validation of range of research and development prototypes and novel power system solutions.

“…On this foundation, the system performance evaluation index was established by considering the network topologies, control targets, communication performance, and other factors, thus verifying the influence of different system attributes on the control effect of a closed-loop system. Overall, the optimal control strategy aiming at the interference mechanism between the power and communication domains was the focus in this kind of application [22].…”

Abstract:With the development of smart grid technology, there has been an increasingly strong tendency towards the integration between the aspects of power and communication. The traditional power system has gradually transformed into the cyber-physical power system (CPPS), where co-simulation technologies can be utilized as an effective measure to describe the computation, communication, and integration processes of a power grid. In this paper, the construction methods and application scenarios of co-simulation platforms in the current research are first summarized. Then, a scheme of the real-time hardware-in-the-loop co-simulation platform is put forward. On the basis of power grid simulation developed with the Real-Time Laboratory (RT-LAB), and the communication network simulation developed with OPNET, the control center was developed with hardware devices to realize real-world control behavior instead of digital simulations. Therefore, the mixed-signal platform is capable of precisely simulating the dynamic features of CPPS with high speed. The distributed simulation components can be coordinated in a unified environment with high interoperability and reusability. Moreover, through a case study of a wide area load control system, the performance of the proposed platform under various conditions of control strategies, communication environments, and sampling frequencies was revealed and compared. As a result, the platform provided an intuitive and accurate way to reconstruct the CPPS environment where the influence of the information side of the CPPS control effects was verified.

“…The context of collectively assessing reliability of power systems is approached by various studies till date in different perspectives. Cyber physical modelling in control engineering performing a number of studies involving co-simulation platforms can be seen increasingly, during recent years [2][3][4]. Here, mathematical relations are observed between control equations concerning some feature of power grid and they relate to the corresponding control equations of the secondary system.…”

On the status of reliability studies involving primary and secondary equipment applied to power system. Abstract-Growth in infrastructure and energy utilization consistently put forward the demand for added quality and quantity of electric power. Reliability concerns over power systems are widespread within its different associated divisions like 'primary' power system structure, protection system, control equipment, ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) etc. This paper is a review of the present status of practices regarding reliability analysis in these divisions and works towards collectively assessing some of the studies in the respective areas. The idea of integrating reliability analysis from the above areas is introduced along with pointing out the major challenges associated. A set of tools for operators to make use in these reliability evaluations and modelling are mentioned. The earlier attempts towards combined overall system reliability analysis are discussed and the approach in this regard with the help of 'control functions' is emphasised. The paper includes works dealing with theory, different methodologies and data associated with power system reliability.
