Survey on the Factors Required in Design of Communication Architecture for Future DC grids

This paper aims first to survey various aspects of DC grids from grid topologies to TSOs structure which has been carried out in several studies, and second try to highlight the factors to be considered in the design of the universal communication architecture for DC grid control and protection purposes. The result of the survey will be used as the first step to introduce the possible communication solutions such as network and data transfer protocols in order to ensure the reliable data delivery in operation of multi-national DC grids.
