Research on Multi-station Integrated 5G Communication Scheme for Smart Energy Station

Smart energy station is a new generation of energy hub infrastructure based on substation, which realizes the multi-station functions of substation, energy storage station, photovoltaic station, charging station and data center station. To improve the processing capacity of the differentiated services of the smart energy station and the efficient coordination of data communication between each station, this paper proposed a multi-station integrated 5G communication scheme for smart energy station. Firstly, the related communication QoS requirements of the multi-site converged services is analyzed for smart energy stations. Secondly, a layered 5G-based communication networking model for smart energy stations is depicted including terminal-perception layer, edge-computing layer, communication-network layer, middle-platform layer and service-platform layer. Finally, a multi-station integrated 5G communication scheme is specified based on the proposed model by an application case, which is combined with UPF deployment strategy for Edge computing and 3-layered 5G-slicing strategy for services’ security. The case illustrates that the proposed scheme performs effectively for the multi-station Integrated services of smart energy stations.
