PMUs are smart grid technology used to measure synchrophasors, standard voltage and current phasors referenced to an absolute time reference State estimation (using power flow meters) state measurement Synchrophasors must be measured simultaneously PMU time synchronization provided by GPS time reference receivers Phasor Measurement Units 14. Demonstrate that the IEEE C37.118 Standard Synchrophasors for Power Systems can be broken by a spoofer Defines required accuracy as 10 degrees) These effects can have significant impacts on PMU- based power grid control systems Local PMU-driven automated control is most vulnerable (e.g., Chicoasen-Angostura system) 23. radionavlab.ae.utexas.edu
