As electric power systems grow increasingly complex, the need for real-time, wide-area monitoring has become essential for ensuring grid stability and resilience. This project introduces a national initiative in Korea aimed at developing and demonstrating a next-generation monitoring system based on synchro-waveform technology. Unlike conventional PMU-based systems that rely primarily on phasor data, this approach leverages high-resolution time-domain waveform measurements, enabling improved detection of transient events and system anomalies caused by inverter-based resources. The project combines advanced sensing infrastructure, data analytics, and communication protocols to create a robust monitoring framework spanning multiple regions. This presentation outlines the project's objectives, system architecture, key technical components, and future plans for nationwide rollout and integration into Korea's smart grid strategy.
