Single of phasor measurement unit (PMU) in smart grid is analyzed. On the power transmission links, single of voltage and current are measured by kinds of PMUs, messages of PMUs are concentrated to PDC (Phasor data concentrator) and super PDC in power systems. Signal quality is important to power transmission, power utilization and power control for stability a power system. Harmonics, inter-harmonics, decaying DC (direct current) offset, and additive white Gaussian noise are analyzed. Odd-number harmonics and inter-harmonics affect the quality of power signals. Decaying DC offsert components influence current signal of power transmission line whose model is modeled by EMTP (Electromagnetic transient program) worldwide. Noise is generally a negligible factor on power transmission lines, since signal-to-noise (SNR) is always below 40 dB.
