A low cost prototype of a Phasor Measurement Unit using Digital Signal Processor

A network of reliable and efficient electricity depends on an acquisition system and data transmission in real time. Monitoring the dynamic performance of large areas of the transmission systems is based on Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs). The advantage of using PMUs is on a high rate of acquisition and synchronization measurements using Global Positioning System (GPS). This paper presents the development of a low cost PMU prototype, based on IEEE C37.118 standards using Digital Signal Processor (DSP).
