Research and application of substation cable trench inspection robot communication system

The substation cable trench inspection robot is mainly used to inspect the high-voltage cables in the underground cable trench of the substation, so as to find various hidden dangers in time. However, due to serious electromagnetic interference in the cable trench and no communication network underground, the environment is more complicated. Aiming at the complex environment in the cable trench, this paper designs a WLAN-based cable trench inspection robot communication program, combining WLAN with directional antennas, and relaying through relay routing, so that the communication between the robot and the PC is divided into pipeline communication and ground communication Two parts. At the same time, the communication hardware, software, and protocol are designed based on the B/S architecture, which effectively improves the communication distance. Through field verification, the packet loss rate of the communication system proposed in the thesis is less than 0.5‰, the communication is stable, and the communication task of the robot in the cable trench of the substation can be completed well.
