[0046] Among them, the narrowband devices are connected to the first network server through the edge physical proxy device, and then connected to the corresponding first backend server through the first network server. When the narrowband devices are connected to the edge physical proxy device, narrowband communication is used. Narrowband communication mainly uses low-frequency signals to transmit data.

The first network server is used to forward the narrowband data received from the narrowband devices to the first backend server.

[0048] When the broadband devices are connected to the router, broadband communication is used. Broadband communication mainly uses high-frequency signals to transmit data. The transmission rate is very high, but the coverage range is limited. Broadband communication can be specifically implemented as communication technologies such as 4G, 5G, WiFi, etc. The broadband devices send the broadband data to the second backend server through the router, switch, and the second network server. The broadband devices can be specifically implemented as devices that use broadband for communication.

[0053]

[0054] Broadband devices specifically include remote inspection devices and operation and maintenance management devices.

[0069] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the wide-narrow convergence aggregation node device is further provided with an optical fiber or network cable interface for connecting to devices such as an access switch for data exchange.

[0070] Return to Figure 2 , and the access switch is used to realize data exchange between the authentication server, the wide-narrow access controller, and the wide-narrow convergence aggregation node device.

[0071] The authentication server can be specifically implemented as a broadband and narrowband authentication server (AS). The authentication server is generally deployed centrally in the substation main station and communicates with the substation sub-station. The authentication server can be deployed in a primary and standby mode. The authentication server is suitable for managing the digital certificates of broadband devices, narrowband devices, and wide-narrow access controllers, including certificate issuance, certificate authentication, certificate recovery, etc.

[0072] The wide and narrow band access controller, namely the wide and narrow band AC, is an edge computing device that supports wide and narrow band integrated communication.

It supports the management of all wide and narrow band integrated AP devices, including the registration, networking, and configuration distribution of the wide and narrow band integrated AP.

[0073] Figure 5 FIG. shows a schematic diagram of a substation broadband integrated wireless networking according to another exemplary embodiment of the present invention. As Figure 5 shown, the dashed line represents the wireless network connection, and the wireless network includes a broadband network and a narrow band network, while the solid line represents the wired network.

[0075] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the narrow band devices communicate with the wide and narrow band integrated AP in narrow band, and the broadband devices communicate with the wide and narrow band integrated AP in broadband. Multiple wide and narrow band integrated convergence node devices, namely the wide and narrow band integrated AP, can be distributedly deployed in the substation. The present invention does not limit the number and deployment method of the specifically deployed broadband integrated convergence node devices.

[0076] According to an embodiment of the present invention, when deploying one or more wide and narrow band integrated convergence node devices, one or more wireless access points AP for broadband communication can also be complementarily set for the broadband network, such as the WAPI wireless access point AP that uses the WAPI protocol for broadband communication, abbreviated as WAPI AP.

[0080] According to an embodiment of the present invention, when deploying narrow and wideband fusion convergence node devices in a substation, it is necessary to reasonably arrange multiple narrow and wideband fusion convergence node devices according to the data acquisition requirements in the substation and the locations where narrow and wideband fusion convergence node devices can be set. If there is a need for a broadband network but it is not covered, one or more wireless access points AP for broadband communication, such as WAPI wireless access points AP, need to be set up to meet the corresponding network requirements.

[0081] Embodiment 2

[0082] According to an embodiment of the present invention, when broadband devices and narrowband devices want to access the narrow and wideband fusion convergence node, the authentication server and the narrow and wideband access controller manage the access and data transmission of broadband devices and narrowband devices.

[0083] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the authentication server first issues a convergence node device certificate to multiple narrow and wideband fusion convergence node devices connected to the authentication server. The convergence node device certificate is a certificate that identifies the legal identity of the narrow and wideband fusion convergence node device.

[0084] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an adaptive protocol library is also set in the narrow and wideband fusion convergence node device to meet the connection requirements of various devices, including broadband devices and narrowband devices. According to an embodiment of the present invention, after multiple narrow and wideband fusion convergence node devices are set up in the substation, the narrow and wideband fusion convergence node devices start to work and will send out AP signals. Broadband devices and narrowband devices can select the narrow and wideband fusion convergence node device with the strongest signal that can be searched to connect.

[0085] According to an embodiment of the present invention, since different devices in broadband devices and narrowband devices may have multiple communication methods, one of the communication methods can be selected according to the data to be sent and received for communication.

[0089] In a substation, there are many energized devices, and each energized device will generate an electromagnetic field, resulting in a relatively complex electromagnetic environment in the substation. When an access device transmits data, it may be affected by such factors and exhibit phenomena such as data packet loss and data errors.

[0090] Therefore, the device to be accessed can select multiple narrow-wideband convergence aggregation node devices for access and transmit the uplink communication data to be sent to the multiple narrow-wideband convergence aggregation node devices.

[0091] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the device to be accessed can select multiple narrow-wideband convergence aggregation node devices closest to the access device for communication connection and send the uplink communication data.

[0092] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the device to be accessed can also connect to multiple narrow-wideband convergence aggregation node devices according to the signal strength. The device to be accessed determines a preset number of narrow-wideband convergence aggregation node devices according to the signals sent by the multiple narrow-wideband convergence aggregation node devices that can be received, and uses them as the narrow-wideband convergence aggregation node devices to be connected to obtain a set of narrow-wideband convergence aggregation node devices to be connected. The present invention does not limit the determination method of the preset number. For example, the preset number is set to 5.

The wide - and - narrow - band access controller responds to the communication verification request sent by the wide - and - narrow - band convergence node device, parses the communication verification request, and obtains the multi - node access device certificate and the convergence node device certificate of the device to be accessed.

[0094] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the device to be accessed includes wide - band devices and narrow - band devices deployed in a substation. The device to be accessed first sends a first device registration request to any one of the wide - and - narrow - band convergence node devices in the wide - and - narrow - band convergence node device set.

[0095] If the device to be accessed is a wide - band device, the wide - band device sends the first device registration request to the wide - band wireless communication module through wide - band communication; if the device to be accessed is a narrow - band device, the narrow - band device sends the first device registration request to the narrow - band wireless communication module through the narrow - band communication module.

[0096] The first device registration request includes the device information of the device to be accessed. The device information of the device to be accessed includes: a unique identification code for identifying the device to be accessed: device ID, communication method, the convergence node device ID of each wide - and - narrow - band convergence node device in the wide - and - narrow - band convergence node device set, and data usage. The convergence node device ID is the unique ID of the wide - and - narrow - band convergence node device to which the device to be accessed will be connected.

[0097] According to an embodiment of the present invention, after receiving the first device registration request, the wide - band convergence node device packages the first device registration request and the convergence node device certificate to generate a second device registration request, and sends it to the wide - and - narrow - band access controller. The wide - and - narrow - band access controller parses the second device registration request to obtain the first device registration request and the convergence node device certificate.

[0098] The wide - and - narrow - band access controller responds to the second device registration request sent by the wide - and - narrow - band convergence node device, parses the second device registration request, and obtains the first device registration request and the convergence node device certificate of the wide - and - narrow - band convergence node device that received the first device registration request.

[0099] Subsequently, the wide - and - narrow - band access controller sends the convergence node device certificate to the authentication server. The authentication server authenticates the convergence node device certificate. After successful authentication, the authentication server sends a first authentication success message to the wide - and - narrow - band access controller.

[0100] The broadband and narrowband access controller responds to the first authentication success message sent by the authentication server after authenticating the aggregation node device certificate, registers the device to be accessed according to the device information, and writes each piece of information in the device information of the device to be accessed into the registration information table. And apply to the authentication server for a multi-node access device certificate for the device to be accessed. The device information includes the aggregation node device ID of each broadband and narrowband fusion aggregation node device in the broadband and narrowband fusion aggregation node device set to be connected.

[0101] After the broadband and narrowband access controller successfully registers the device to be accessed, it applies to the authentication server for a multi-node access device certificate for the device to be accessed. The authentication server makes a multi-node access device certificate according to the device information of the device to be accessed and sends it to the broadband and narrowband access controller.

[0102] Subsequently, the broadband and narrowband access controller responds to the received multi-node access device certificate made according to the device information, and sends the multi-node access device certificate to the device to be accessed through the broadband and narrowband fusion aggregation node device.

[0103] The broadband and narrowband access controller responds to the received made multi-node access device certificate, and first sends a registration success message and a device certificate to the broadband and narrowband fusion aggregation node device. Subsequently, the broadband and narrowband fusion aggregation node device sends the multi-node access device certificate to the device to be accessed.

[0104] After the device to be accessed receives the multi-node device certificate, each time it establishes a communication connection with a broadband and narrowband fusion aggregation node device in the broadband and narrowband fusion aggregation node device set, it sends a communication connection request to the broadband and narrowband fusion aggregation node device, and the communication connection request includes the multi-node access device certificate.

[0105] After the broadband and narrowband fusion aggregation node device receives the communication connection request, it generates a communication verification request according to the communication connection request and the aggregation node device certificate and sends it to the broadband and narrowband access controller.

[0106] The broadband and narrowband access controller responds to the received communication verification request sent by the broadband and narrowband fusion aggregation node device, parses the communication verification request, and obtains the multi-node access device certificate and the aggregation node device certificate of the device to be accessed.

[0107] Subsequently, step 620 is executed. The broadband and narrowband access controller sends the multi-node access device certificate and the aggregation node device certificate to the authentication server so that the authentication server can perform certificate authentication.

[0108] The authentication server performs certificate authentication. If the authentication passes, it sends a second authentication success message to the broadband and narrowband access controller.

[0109] Subsequently, step 630 is executed. In response to the second authentication success message sent by the authentication server after successful certificate authentication, the broadband and narrowband access controller sends an allow connection message to the broadband and narrowband convergence node device, so that the device to be accessed can access the broadband and narrowband convergence node device and become an access device.

[0110] The device to be accessed can become an access device of multiple broadband and narrowband convergence node devices through the above method.

[0111] Based on the authentication success message, the broadband and narrowband access controller allows the device to be accessed to access the broadband and narrowband convergence node device, and sends an allow connection message to the broadband and narrowband convergence node device that receives the communication connection request. After receiving the allow connection message, the broadband and narrowband convergence node device negotiates a secret key with the device to be accessed to determine the session secret key. After the device to be accessed completes the secret key negotiation, it becomes an access device connected to the broadband and narrowband convergence node device.

[0112] The session secret key includes the private key and public key of the access device, and the private key and public key of the broadband and narrowband convergence node device.

[0113] When the access device communicates with the broadband and narrowband convergence node device, it encrypts the uplink communication data according to the public key of the broadband and narrowband convergence node device and sends it to the broadband and narrowband convergence node device. After receiving the encrypted uplink communication data, the broadband and narrowband convergence node device decrypts the uplink communication data according to the private key of the broadband and narrowband convergence node device to obtain the data content of the uplink communication data.

[0114] When the broadband and narrowband convergence node device needs to communicate with the access device, it encrypts the downlink communication data according to the public key of the access device and sends it to the access device. After receiving the downlink communication data sent by the broadband and narrowband convergence node device, the access device decrypts the downlink communication data according to the private key of the access device to obtain the data content of the downlink communication data.

[0115] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the access device includes a broadband device and a narrowband device. When the broadband device communicates with the broadband and narrowband convergence node device, it establishes a communication connection with the broadband wireless communication module for communication. When the narrowband device communicates with the broadband and narrowband convergence node device, it establishes a communication connection with the narrowband wireless communication module for communication.

[0116] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the uplink communication data includes narrowband data and broadband data. The downlink communication data includes data sent to the narrowband device and data of the broadband device.

[0117] According to an embodiment of the present invention, after broadband devices and narrowband devices are connected to the converged wide and narrowband aggregation node device, the wide and narrowband access controller manages the access devices according to the device type. The access devices include broadband devices and narrowband devices. Among them, the broadband devices include remote inspection devices and operation and maintenance management devices; the narrowband devices include online monitoring devices, such as various sensors.

[0118] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the wide and narrowband access controller can manage the access devices according to the registration information table. The registration information table also includes the device type of the access devices, specifically whether they belong to broadband devices or narrowband devices, and which type of device they are among the broadband devices or narrowband devices.

[0119] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the wide and narrowband access controller can also create device lists of different categories, such as the device list of broadband devices and the device list of narrowband devices, and can be further subdivided, such as the device list of remote inspection devices, the device list of operation and maintenance management devices, and the device list of online monitoring devices.

[0120] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the wide and narrowband access controller can also provide a management interface for the backend. The backend management personnel can obtain the management situation of the wide and narrowband access controller for various devices, including various device lists, through the management interface.

[0121] The management interface also provides management controls in the device list. Users can disconnect the access devices in the device list according to the management controls, set the disconnection time, etc., and set to add to the blacklist to prohibit the device from accessing the converged wide and narrowband aggregation node device in the future, etc. The present invention does not limit the specific implementation manner of the management controls and the management manner of the access devices.

[0122] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the access device determines a target converged wide and narrowband aggregation node device from the converged wide and narrowband aggregation node device set, and the uplink communication data sent by the access device to the target converged wide and narrowband aggregation node device is the target uplink communication data. The specific manner for the access device to determine a target converged wide and narrowband aggregation node device from the converged wide and narrowband aggregation node device set can be implemented as selecting the converged wide and narrowband aggregation node device with the shortest distance as the target converged wide and narrowband aggregation node device, or selecting the converged wide and narrowband aggregation node device with the strongest signal as the target converged wide and narrowband aggregation node device. The present invention does not limit the specific manner for selecting the target converged wide and narrowband aggregation node device.

[0123] According to an embodiment of the present invention, in the concentration of wide and narrowband integrated convergence node devices, other wide and narrowband integrated convergence node devices except the target wide and narrowband integrated convergence node device are verification wide and narrowband integrated convergence node devices. The uplink communication data sent by the access device to the verification wide and narrowband integrated convergence node device is verification uplink communication data. The verification wide and narrowband integrated convergence node device may include multiple wide and narrowband integrated convergence node devices, and the verification uplink communication data may include multiple uplink communication data.

[0124] According to an embodiment of the present invention, after receiving the target uplink communication data, the target wide and narrowband integrated convergence node device obtains the target data content of the target uplink communication data. Subsequently, the target wide and narrowband integrated convergence node device sends the target data content to the wide and narrowband access controller.

[0125] After receiving the verification uplink communication data, the verification wide and narrowband integrated convergence node device obtains the verification data content of the verification uplink communication data. Subsequently, the verification wide and narrowband integrated convergence node device sends the verification data content to the wide and narrowband access controller.

[0126] Subsequently, step 640 is executed. In response to receiving the target data content sent by the target wide and narrowband integrated convergence node device and the verification data content sent by the verification wide and narrowband integrated convergence node device, the wide and narrowband access controller verifies the target data content according to the verification data content, and determines whether the target data content is consistent with the verification data content; step 650 is executed. If they are consistent, the target data content is uploaded to the backend server.

[0127] When determining whether the target data content is consistent with the verification data content, determine the first number of target data information included in the target data content, and determine the second number of verification data information included in the verification data content. Determine whether the first number is the same as the second number. If they are different, it is determined that packet loss occurs in the target data content, and the verification data content is uploaded to the backend server.

[0128] If the first number is the same as the second number, then determine whether the order of each piece of target data information in the target data content is the same as the order of the corresponding piece of verification data information in the verification data content. If they are different, it is determined that a data order error occurs in the target data content, and the verification data content is uploaded to the backend server.

[0129] If the order of each piece of target data information in the target data content is the same as the order of the corresponding verification data information in the verification data content, then determine whether each piece of target data information is the same as the corresponding verification data information. If they are the same, it is determined that the target data content is consistent with the verification data content, and the target data content is uploaded to the backend server.

[0130] If a piece of target data information is different from the corresponding verification data information, it is determined that there is an error in the data content of the target data, and the verification data content is uploaded to the backend server.

[0131] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the broadband and narrowband access controller may also, after receiving the target data content, first upload the target data content to the backend server so that the backend server can perform data processing. After receiving the subsequently sent verification data content, the target data content is verified according to the verification data content to determine whether the target data content is consistent with the verification data content. If they are consistent, no processing is performed.

[0132] If they are inconsistent, a data correction message including the verification data content is sent to the backend server. [[ID=VIII]]

[0133] When the backend server receives the target data content or the verification data content, it processes the target data content or the verification data content.
