Access Technology Comparison

• Example. BPL vs. GPRS (2G) “experience” comparison:

• Performance example:– Firmware Update (FW). Data Concentrator:

FW image = 1,5 MB; Minimum throughput GPRS = 20 min; BPL = 2 min

Maximum throughput GPRS = 10 min; BPL = 6 s

– Data Concentrator web page:

Web page = 0,05 MB; Minimum throughput GPRS = 40 s; BPL = 4 s

– Telecontrol status update (with data) :

Minimum throughput / Maximum Latency GPRS = 4,88 s; BPL = 0,81 s

Maximum throughput / Minimum Latency GPRS = 2,64 s; BPL = 0,33 s

Failure

• Secondary substations in Urban environment. Underground scenarios are bad for GPRS.

• Real Example

Minimum threshold 1%

Are 2G/3G Technologies Ready?

• Public telecommunications networks do not prioritize the traffic of the utilities.

Do we get the resources we require?

• Smart Metering is just the first “app” of PRIME.

• Need to map the LV assets: obliged to improve SAIDI (System Average Interruption Duration Index).

Smart Grid. Application Number 2: LV Feeder Mapping

• Key facts:

– LV grid mapping is generally notknown.

– PRIME Control messages are used to retrieve LV feeder and phase mapping of Smart Meters.

– No extra resources needed in the telecom network.

• Need to remotely access RTU’s in the LV Grid: remote control of feeder switches, control of renewables connection, …
