Grid Modernization – Private LTE Communications Enabling the Future of Devices

Having a secure and reliable system is key in ensuring connectivity for daily operations, identifying faults, communication during natural disasters and future smart initiatives. By creating a Private LTE network brings control back to the utilities from the public carriers. There are many new areas and technologies that have been enabled through use of different RF bands ranging from 600mHZ to 6.0 Ghz that will enable utilities to maintain protection and control while also gathering data to make better operational decisions. From EV chargers to AMI Meters, technology has adapted and so now do utilities. Speaker(s): J.T. Mills, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/368476
