Application of ATM-based network for an integrated distributionSCADA-GIS system

摘要

In this paper, an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM)-based networknis applied as the communication backbone between geographicalninformation system (GIS) and supervisory control and data acquisitionn(SCADA). Because the ATM network is a true multiservice network thatnprovides broadband services and meets the different quality of servicenrequirements, this technique is increasingly important in a modernncommunication system. The paper begins with the event generator thatnbrings different messages to the ATM network from various local areannetworks. A statistical evaluation is then employed to examine thenamount of message flow and the quality of service, where the outcome isnassessed based on traffic, capacity and performance of the proposednmethod. Test results help solidify the effectiveness of the approach fornpower system communication applications
