openPMU Demostration

During this workshop, an openPMU was set-up and a live demonstration was given. The following materials are available:

• openPMU sources used for the demonstration, here
• openPMU measurements taken in Sweden when the prototype was built and checked (here), and the measurements taken in Rio during the demonstration (here)
• Dr. David Laverty made available a Matlab file for converting the data, available (here)
