RTDS Technologies Inc. provides power systems simulation technology for fast, reliable, accurate, and cost effective study of power systems with complex High Voltage Alternating Current (HVAC) and High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) networks. The RTDS Simulator is a fully digital electromagnetic transients power system simulator that operates in real time. Real Time Digital Simulator (RTDS ®) technology replaces the previous generation of network analyzers which were based on analogue technology. The RTDS Simulator was developed without precedence - created specifically for real time power system simulation, utilizing advanced custom hardware and software technologies. 4 b4 Y7 i: h4 s' Z1 C" e8 Y( N3 l8 x- E2 {+ G, {* \
The RTDS Simulator enables power industry experts to define the network configuration and run real time tests for many aspects of service life. System problems are discovered faster - solutions are designed and tested immediately.
