A Communication Retrofitting Scheme of Distribution Automation Based on 5G Communication Technology
This paper delves into the applicability of 5G communication technology in the field of distribu-tion automation.It analyzes and compares the commonly used communication technologies in the distribution networks and elaborates on the advantages and applicability of 5G technology within distribution automation systems.Based on the characteristics and practical conditions of aged switching stations,a com-munication retrofitting scheme for distribution automation systems based on 5G technology is proposed.This scheme boasts several merits,including uninterrupted power supply during the retrofitting process,simulta-neous protection upgrades,technological maturity conducive to widespread adoption,and relatively low dif-ficulty and cost of implementation,which makes the process more efficient,reliable and secure.
