Abstract: | This report provides all the details about the models and the quantitative results presented in [1], about
the simulation of communication scenarios inside the Electrical Power System. In particular, the scenarios deal with the communication between one area control centre and a set of substations in a distribution grid, exchanging commands and signals by means of a redundant communication network. The communication may be affected by threats such as the communication network failure, or intrusions into the communication, causing the loss of commands or signals. The scenarios have been modeled and simulated in form of Stochastic Activity Networks, with the purpose of evaluating the effects of such threats on the communication reliability. |
