Large-scale Data Acquisition and Scada Applications over Power Line Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
A system that enables narrow band power line communication to be used for data acquisition applications over large areas, such as a district or a town, is presented in its design and architecture. We present the capabilities of the system, which include the possibility to use existing applications and field-level equipment and extend their communication ability to the wide-area power line network. The core of the communication system is designed to employ not only power line communication, but also other communication channels. Copyright © 2005 IFAC

Difficulties in Modeling SCADA Traffic: A Comparative Analysis
Modern critical infrastructures, such as water distribution and power generation, are large facilities that are distributed over large geographical areas. Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) networks are deployed to guarantee the correct operation and safety of these infrastructures. In this paper, we describe key characteristics of SCADA traffic, verifying if models developed for ...
متن کاملA Secure SCADA System using MiniSec Sensor Network
SCADA refers to a large-scale, distributed measurement(and control) system. SCADA is not a specific technology, but a type of application. SCADA stands for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition — any application that gets data about a system in order to control that system is a SCADA application. A SCADA application has two elements: 1. The process/system/machinery we want to monitor a contr...
متن کاملA Petri-net Model for Operational Cycle in SCADA Systems
Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system monitors and controls industrial processes in critical infrastructures (CIs) and plays the vital role in maintaining the reliability of CIs such as power, oil, and gas system. In fact, SCADA system refers to the set of control process, which measures and monitors sensors in remote substations from a control center. These sensors usually ha...
متن کاملUnavailability of critical SCADA communication links interconnecting a power grid and a Telco network
The availability of power supply to power grid customers depends upon the availability of services of supervision, control and data acquisition (SCADA) system, which constitutes the nervous system of a power grid. In turn, SCADA services depend on the availability of the interconnected networks supporting such services. We propose a service oriented stochastic modelling methodology to investiga...
