Abstract

The present review considers the hardware and control system structure of the modern SCADA systems. The commonly used communication infrastructure and data transmission protocols are described. Especially the trends in using wireless communication technology applications are analyzed. A number of different SCADA system applications are represented and its advantages and disadvantages are also discussed.

Keywords
