Distributed Network Protocol Version 3.0 (DNP3.0) is the communication protocol developed for the interoperability between a RTU and a central control station of SCADA in the power utility industry. In this paper DNP3.0 is implemented by using HDL with FPGA and C program on Hitachi H8/532 processor. DNP3.0 is implemented from physical layer to network layer in hardware level to reduce the computing load on a CPU. Finally, the ASIC for DNP3.0 has been manufactured from Hynix Semiconductor. The commercial feasibility of the hardware through the communication test with ASE2000 and DNP Master Simulator is performed. The developed protocol becomes one of IP, and can be used to implement SoC for the terminal device in SCADA systems. Also, the result can be applicable to various industrial controllers because it is implemented in HDL.

In this paper, a communication module between Relay agents in a multi-agent system based power distribution network protection system is realized using DNP3.0(Distributed Network Protocol), which is the standard communication protocol of distribution automation system in KEPCO. The key words for agent communication in the multi-agent based protection system are defined and represented by use of DNP application function code. The communication module developed based on the proposed communication scheme is tested by use of the Communication Test Harness, a test tool for DNP protocol, then used to the multi-agent system based power distribution net work protection system.

In this paper, the power system automation based on CAN communication protocol is introduced. Along with digitalization of electrical device, the various on-line services such as remote control, remote monitoring, remote parameter setting, fault data recording and remote diagnostic have been realized and become available. Therefore, it is necessary for those electrical devices to have real-time and reliable communication protocols. Author proposes DNPC(Distributed Network Protocol with CAN) which is proper to the power system SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) and DCS (Distributed Control System). The physical and datalink layer of DNPC protocol consists of the CAN2.0B which has the real-time characteristics and powerful error control scheme. As the transport and application layer, DNP3.0 is adopted because of its flexibility and compatible feature. Using the DNPC protocol, the power system automation is realized.

This paper introduces prototype design of 765kV Substation control system based on fiber optics LAN and distributed network protocol. Two major important facts, immunity of any surge which frequently occurs in Ultra High Voltage Substation and the most suitable communication protocol for substation control system, are considered on the system design conception. To meet the first fact, use of fiber optics cable and isolation transformer are considered, and to satisfy the second fact, DNP3.0(Distributed Network Protocol) which is IEC870-5 compatible is adopted.

As the power system develops rapidly into a smarter and more flexible state, so must the communication technologies that support it. Machine to machine (M2M) communication in Smart Grid environment has been discussed in European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI). The power system is not easily replaceable, due to system replacement cost. The M2M gateway is required in other to improve interoperability in M2M environment. The Distributed Network Protocol 3.0 (DNP3.0) is the most important standard in the SCADA systems for the power. It has been used for device data collection/control in Substation Systems, Distribution Automation System. If the DNP3.0 data model is combined with a set of contemporary web protocols, it can result in a major shift. We selected Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) based on RESTful as M2M protocol. It is a specialized web transfer protocol for use with constrained nodes and constrained networks. We have used the OPNET Modeler 17.1 in order to verity the SOAP versus CoAP. In this paper, we propose the CoAP-based M2M Gateway to Distribution Automation system using DNP3.0 in Smart Grid Environment.

The Energy Management System (EMS) communicates with power plants and substations, monitors the substations and plant operational status of the transmission and substation system for stability, continuity, real-time, and economy of power supply, and controls power plants and substations. Currently, the power exchange EMS communicates with power plants and substations based on the serial communication-based Distributed Network Protocol (DNP) 3.0 protocol. However, problems such as the difficulty of supply and demand of serial communication equipment and the lack of installation space for serial ports and modems are raised due to the continuous increase in new facilities to perform communication, including renewable power generation facilities. Therefore, this paper presents a TCP/IP-based communication method instead of the existing serial communication method of the power exchange EMS, and presents a security risk analysis that may occur due to changes in the communication method and a countermeasure to the security risk.

본 논문에서는 대표적인 산업용 프로토콜인 DNP(Distributed Network Protocol) 3.0과 TETRA(Terrestrial Trunked Radio)의 Gateway System Architecture를 제안한다. TETRA는 재난망 무선통신 기술로써 여러가지 타입의 무선 인터페이스를 제공한다. 이러한 TETRA 기술을 이용해서 원거리에 있는 각 산업용 장비들의 감시 제어를 보다 효율적으로 수행 할 수 있다. 하지만 아직 TETRA의 국내 표준이 이루어지지 않은 상태이기 때문에 본 논문에서는 다양한 산업용 장비와 인터페이스를 할 수 있는 표준을 제공하고자 한다.
