Information and Communication Technologies in Modern Electrical Networks: A Brief Review

Hassan Abouelgheit

Abstract


Information and communication have a long history in power systems. The advancement of digital signal processing, digital circuits and RF circuit manufacturing provide a solid foundation for new generations of digital grids with wide monitoring and controlling capabilities. Information and communication build the cornerstone for a reliable, secure and efficient network operation. In this paper, relevant information and communication technologies in modern power systems are covered and classified according to the application areas, communication protocols and network areas. Moreover, applications based on information and communication technologies were briefly discussed.


Keywords
