Power Electronics 

Distributed Control•

Each power electronics subsystem 

contributes to the overall system operation.

•

Previous work showed the sensitivity of the  system to the controllers

–

Failed or compromised controllers can cause  serious power system failures

•

Cyber and physical interactions cause new  vulnerabilities:

–

Frequency domain interactions

–

Confidentiality interactions  16

Information Flow Security in CPS

•

The physical nature of a security boundary  tends to expose information outside the 

cyber world.

•

The timing pattern could expose high‐level  system behaviors since time is global and 

can be observed by all the security levels.

Summary•

UPQC –

Provides a bidirectional ac‐ac interface 

between the bulk power system and distributed  energy resources

•

DIC –

Provides long and short‐term energy  storage capabilities to improve performance in 

both the bulk and distributed systems

•

CPS –

Determines and mitigate vulnerabilities in  power electronic based systems in the bulk 

power grid
