Abstract: With the wide application of GOOSE in smart substation, the investigation of real-time and reliability of GOOSE appears increasingly important. Due to the complexity of GOOSE and high cost of research, the traditional measured method is not good enough to meet the research demands. However, the simulation analysis method can work well in the field. The method of implementing GOOSE simulation platform based on the OPNET was introduced. The platform can be widely applied in various kinds of analysis and research of GOOSE.

Key words: GOOSE, OPNET, Simulation platform, Dynamic simulation
