Cluster: Trustworthy cyber infrastructure and technologies for wide-area monitoring and control
Real-time Streaming Data Processing Engine for Embedded Systems Objectives • Design and implement a streaming data processing engine that can handle a large volume of data and ensure error/attack resiliency of the application/algorithm. Achievements • Understanding streaming data produced by the devices in the power grid. • Format and accuracy of measured data • Components of phasor networks: PMUs, phasor data concentrators (PDC), and SCADA • Explore use of hardware support to enable fast processing of data collected by the measuring devices
Secure Wide-Area Data and Communication Networks for PMU-based Power System Applications Objectives • Design and develop security architectures and technologies for PMU data sharing; e.g., NASPInet. • Develop techniques for providing security (CIA properties) for communication networks. • Develop risk-based approaches for integrating security solutions. • Integrate with communication systems and evaluate performance and security. Achievements • Papers on “Exploring a Tiered Architecture for NASPInet” and “Security Requirements, Challenges, and Opportunities Provided by PMU Networks.” • Industry Interactions: • Participating in NASPI DNMTT for several years. • Interacting with TVA on OpenPDC and PMU Registry. • Subcontract with Entergy on their FOA 58 award to help with their NASPInet pilot. 5
Lossless Compression of PMU Data Archives Objectives • Determine how to compress PMU signals without losing important data. • Implement compression algorithms with real data-archiving systems. Achievements • Developed Slack-Referenced Encoding (SRE) pre-processing technique that transforms the data based on their spatial and temporal correlation before compressing them. Improved compression ratios, particularly for phase angles. • Paper accepted for presentation at the upcoming IEEE PES Summer Meeting.
