Title
Performance Evaluation of IEC 61850-90-5 over a latency optimized 3GPP LTE Network
Abstract
This paper evaluates the performance of the IEC 61850-90-5 protocol stack transmitted over a latency optimized non-commercial 3GPP LTE network through experiments in a lab environment. IEC 61850-90-5 is designed for Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) communication but can also be extended to other areas of control and protection in smart grids, using the routable GOOSE and routable sample value features. The test was carried out using a PC that emulated a PMU in sending periodic IEC61850-90-5 packets. Different IEC 61850-905 packet sizes and transmission rates were considered to determine the availability, throughput and latency of the LTE based network. The latency was minimized by applying a low latency scheduling mechanism and local breakout where user plane functionality of the core network is located at the edge of the Radio Access network. From the results it can be seen that an LTE network with latency optimized configuration performs well in terms of throughput and latency whereas a reference network without local breakout show significantly higher latency and jitter.
