Solutions for Power Grid Infrastructure 

As power utilities strive to deliver more with their existing grid infrastructurecontrol and protection functions have become more dependent on data that is synchronized with greater precision. Critical infrastructure sectors like power grid are highly dependent on GPS-delivered position, navigation and timing (PNT) data. Mitigating outages and disruptions to GPS reception, whether accidental or malicious, is essential to ensuring availability of vital infrastructure resources.

Accurate, reliable time synchronization has always been important to power grid operations, but even more so now. The smart grid fundamentally changes the role of time information from something used to correlate historical data points for post-event fault analysis to enabling real-time visibility for higher efficiency management of load and generation fluctuations, problem analysis and isolation, and reducing the impact of wide area outages.

Microsemi offers a broad portfolio of products, technologies and services to help customer secure a sky-delivered PNT platform for critical infrastructure, such as power utilities.
