Considerations about synchrophasors measurement in dynamic system conditions

This paper focuses on some concepts that are to be considered to ensure interoperability of phasor measurement units (PMU) during dynamic phenomena. Interoperability of devices in dynamic system conditions is needed to allow accurate analysis and, in the near future, control of phenomena like power system oscillations. The paper emphasizes the need to extend the IEEE standard to ensure the measurement latency and accuracy are known during field measurements. It also introduces a sequential logic aiming at providing the user with more robust measurements, together with more information about the measurement quality.
