[0002] The rapid development of the power industry, particularly the promotion and application of smart grids and the power Internet of Things (IoT), has placed higher demands on communication modules for data transmission in power companies' automated metering (AMI) systems. As a core component in these systems, concentrators are primarily responsible for collecting data from downstream metering devices and uploading it to the master station. To meet the requirements for efficient and stable transmission of power data, concentrators must possess high bandwidth, high reliability, and excellent anti-interference capabilities. These capabilities are crucial for improving power management, ensuring data accuracy, and guaranteeing stable power system operation.

[0003] Conventional concentrator communication modules typically rely on serial ports (RS-232 / RS-485) and GPRS (2G / 3G) for data transmission. While these communication methods met initial needs to a certain extent, with the expansion of power systems and the increasing demands for data transmission speed, stability, and security, traditional solutions are becoming inadequate. To address these issues, the industry has attempted to upgrade GPRS modules, introduce higher-level wireless communication technologies (such as 4G), or replace the entire concentrator. However, these approaches still have limitations and have failed to fundamentally improve communication performance and compatibility.

[0004] A major problem with existing technologies is that the serial ports and GPRS communication technology used in traditional concentrators are unable to meet the high-speed, high-capacity data transmission requirements of modern power systems. Especially in complex power environments, unstable and slow data transmission has become a bottleneck restricting system performance. Furthermore, upgrading the communication module or replacing the concentrator often requires high costs and a long implementation cycle, and it is difficult to ensure good compatibility with existing systems. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new communication module that can overcome the limitations of traditional serial ports, utilize high-speed and stable 4G communication technology, and maintain compatibility with equipment from different manufacturers, thereby effectively improving data upload efficiency and reducing overall system complexity and cost.

[0019] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings in the present specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] Please see the attached Figure 1 , an embodiment of the present invention provides a concentrator high-speed 4G communication module, comprising: 1. Ethernet interface In this embodiment, the Ethernet interface of the concentrator's high-speed 4G communication module serves as a connection channel with downstream devices (such as electricity meters and sensors), responsible for rapid data transmission. The Ethernet interface utilizes an industrial-grade design, supporting Ethernet and TCP / IP protocols, ensuring stable operation in high-interference power environments. This interface is primarily used to transmit power data from downstream devices to the concentrator's intelligent MCU for subsequent data processing and forwarding. The Ethernet interface supports a standard RJ45 connector, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of devices, particularly those from different manufacturers. The maximum data transmission rate supported is 1 Gbps, enabling efficient transmission of large amounts of power data from downstream devices, avoiding the bottlenecks associated with traditional communication methods.

[0021] After downstream devices collect power usage data, it's first transmitted to the concentrator via an Ethernet interface. The Ethernet interface encapsulates the data and transmits it to the intelligent MCU for analysis. The intelligent MCU converts the parsed data into a format suitable for 4G communication. The data is then passed to the all-network 4G communication chip for upload to a remote master station or cloud platform. During data transmission, the Ethernet interface enables full-duplex communication, supporting simultaneous data reception and transmission, thereby improving data exchange efficiency.

[0022] In this embodiment, the Ethernet interface adopts an industrial-grade circuit design, and its physical layer chip is DM9161CEP, which is connected to the GPIO port of the intelligent MCU (103) via the RMII interface, as follows: The interface circuit includes an impedance matching network consisting of two 49.9Ω resistors (R1, R2) with an accuracy of ±1% connected in series, which is soldered between the differential signal lines (TX+, TX-) of the RJ45 connector and the transmitting end of the physical layer chip (U1); The pin definition of the RJ45 connector complies with the ANSI / TIA-1096-A standard, where pins 1 and 2 are used to receive differential signals (RX+, RX-), and pins 3 and 6 are used to transmit differential signals (TX+, TX-). The shield layer is grounded via a 0.1μF capacitor (C1). (3) The configuration register of the physical layer chip (U1) is initialized to: Write 0x2100 to register address 0x00 (enable auto-negotiation function); Register address 0x04 is written to 0x05E1 (set full-duplex mode); Register address 0x16 is written to 0x0003 (CRC check and short packet padding are enabled); (4) The specific connection method of the signal transmission path is: The PD0-PD7 pins of the intelligent MCU (103) are connected to the RMII_TXD[0:1] and RMII_RXD[0:1] signal lines of the physical layer chip (U1); The LED1 pin of the physical layer chip (U1) is connected to the PA0 pin of the intelligent MCU (103) to indicate the link status; (5) The data transmission process includes the following steps: The MODBUS-RTU protocol data frame sent by the lower-level device is input via the RJ45 connector (102); The physical layer chip (U1) performs Manchester decoding and generates parallel data and writes it into the receiving buffer; The intelligent MCU (103) reads the buffer data through an interrupt mode and performs a CRC-16 check; The data packets that pass the verification are converted into TCP / IP format, and the encapsulated target IP address is the preset main station server address (192.168.1.100); (6) Anti-interference measures include: Connect a TVS diode (D1, SMBJ5.0CA) and a 10μF tantalum capacitor (C2) in parallel at the power input. The signal line should be ≥3mm away from the edge of the PCB and covered with ground (GND copper foil width ≥0.5mm); A grounding area is set at the bottom of the physical layer chip (U1) and connected to the ground layer through vias (V1-V8).

[0023] 2.USB interface The USB interface in the concentrator's high-speed 4G communication module serves as a key external connection port, enhancing system compatibility and providing flexible device access. Supporting standard USB 2.0 protocols and featuring plug-and-play functionality, the USB interface facilitates data exchange with devices from different manufacturers (such as electricity meters and sensors) without requiring additional configuration or driver installation. While enabling efficient data exchange, the USB interface significantly enhances system flexibility and compatibility, particularly in field environments where Ethernet connectivity is unavailable.

[0024] When a downstream device connects to the concentrator via a USB port, it transmits real-time collected power data to the concentrator's intelligent MCU. The MCU then parses and processes the data, transferring it to a fully networked 4G communication chip. This data is then uploaded to the power company's main station or cloud platform via the wireless 4G network for storage and analysis. The plug-and-play nature of the USB port allows field personnel to quickly connect devices and exchange data, streamlining on-site operations.

[0025] The physical connector of the USB interface uses a USB Type-B female connector, and its pin definition strictly complies with the USB 2.0 specification. Pin 1 (VBUS) is connected to the 5V power line through a 1A resettable fuse (F1). Pins 2 (D-) and 3 (D+) are connected to the DP and DM signal terminals of the USB3300 control chip (U2) through 22Ω impedance matching resistors (R3 and R4) in series, respectively. Pin 4 (GND) is connected to the PCB ground layer through a star grounding method.

[0028] After receiving data transmitted from the Ethernet or USB interface, the intelligent MCU will first parse and convert the data format to ensure that it complies with the requirements of the 4G communication protocol. The intelligent MCU will then drive the full-network 4G communication chip to transmit the data, select the best available channel, and upload the data to the remote master station or cloud platform.

[0029] In this embodiment, the intelligent MCU uses an ARM Cortex-M series processor, which has high computing power and can quickly complete operations such as data parsing, format conversion, and protocol processing. At the same time, the intelligent MCU also has low power consumption, making it suitable for long-term stable operation in the power industry.

If it is wrong, discard the data packet. Encapsulate valid data into TCP / IPv4 format: The source IP address is fixed at 192.168.0.100 (C0 A8 00 64). Write the preset master station address (C0 A8 01 C8) to the destination IP address. The TCP window size is fixed at 1460 bytes; The data is sent to the 4G module via the SPI interface (30MHz), and a 2-byte length header (big endian) is added to each data packet. The channel selection mechanism is implemented through the preset APN configuration table: When powered on, the device automatically scans the first five digits of the SIM card IMSI number (46000 / 46001 / 46003) to match the corresponding APN.

[0033] 4. Full network 4G communication chip In the concentrator's high-speed 4G communication module, the all-network-compatible 4G communication chip is a key component for data upload. This chip supports multiple communication standards, including FDD-LTE, TD-LTE, WCDMA, and GSM, providing stable communication capabilities across diverse network environments. This communication chip enables high-speed, stable data transmission, meeting the high data upload speed and quality requirements of the power information collection system. The all-network-compatible 4G communication chip works in conjunction with the intelligent MCU to ensure efficient data upload to the master station via the 4G network, significantly improving the system's communication performance.

[0034] In this embodiment, the all-network 4G communication chip is the core data transmission component of the concentrator's high-speed 4G communication module. It is responsible for encapsulating data transmitted by the intelligent MCU into a format suitable for 4G network transmission and enabling data upload via the wireless 4G network. This chip supports multiple standards such as FDD-LTE, TD-LTE, WCDMA, and GSM, making it widely compatible and adaptable to network environments provided by different regions and operators, ensuring communication stability and reliability during data upload.

[0035] Specifically, the working principle of the full-network 4G communication chip includes the following steps: Data Reception and Transmission: The intelligent MCU sends the parsed and formatted data to the all-network 4G communication chip. Based on pre-set network parameters, the chip initiates a connection to the carrier's network and selects the appropriate channel for data transmission. This process enables the all-network 4G communication chip to achieve high-speed data uploads.

[0036] The all-network 4G communication chip automatically connects to the network, automatically selecting the optimal signal strength and available network based on the surrounding environment and network load. The chip supports multiple 4G standards and dynamically adjusts channels under varying network conditions (such as weak signal strength or high network load), ensuring stable and efficient data transmission.

[0037] To ensure the security of power data, the all-network 4G communication chip supports data encryption. During the data upload process, all transmitted data is encrypted using an encryption algorithm to prevent illegal interception or tampering during transmission, enhancing system security.

[0038] The all-network 4G communication chip supports multiple communication protocols, making it compatible with different operators' networks. It interacts with the operator's network through a built-in protocol stack, ensuring that data can be successfully uploaded to the remote master station or cloud platform.

[0039] The full-network 4G communication chip uses the ME3630-W module, and its implementation details are as follows: The module is connected to the PCB via a 1.27mm pitch board-to-board connector. The pin definitions are as follows: The module's firmware configuration parameters are stored in the 0x0000F000 address segment of the internal Flash.

[0040] The data transmission process includes the following physical layer operations: Receive TCP / IP data packets (including a 2-byte length header) sent by the smart MCU through the SPI interface; After stripping the length header, add the PPP protocol header (FF 03 00 21) and encapsulate it into a PPP frame. Select a dedicated bearer channel based on the QoS class identifier (QCI=6); The SM4 national secret algorithm is used for data encryption, and the encryption key is solidified in the module security area (0x0001E000-0x0001E00F); The signal is transmitted to the base station via a built-in PA amplifier (output power 23dBm±1dB), with the transmission frequency band locked to Band 3 (1800MHz) and Band 38 (2600MHz). 5.PCB circuit board In the concentrator high-speed 4G communication module of this invention, the PCB (printed circuit board) serves as the carrier and connection platform for all electronic components, playing a vital role in supporting and connecting the various modules. Through a well-designed circuit layout, the PCB not only facilitates signal transmission between modules but also ensures system stability, reliability, and anti-interference capabilities. A sound PCB design also determines the overall system's electrical performance and long-term operational stability. PCB layout and routing are particularly crucial in scenarios involving high-frequency, high-speed data transmission.

[0041] In this embodiment, the PCB circuit board utilizes a multi-layered design to ensure stable and reliable transmission of high-speed data transmission signals. The board is designed with multiple circuit layers, each responsible for a different functional area, such as power supply, signal transmission, and signal isolation. To ensure interconnection and signal integrity between modules, the PCB design utilizes a layout optimized for high-frequency signals, ensuring that electrical signals between modules can complete data exchange with the lowest possible latency.

[0042] To reduce signal interference and improve electrical performance, this embodiment utilizes a multi-layer circuit board design. A PCB typically contains at least four layers: a signal layer, a power layer, a ground layer, and a power return layer. By properly arranging the signal layer, ground layer, and power layer layout, electromagnetic interference (EMI) is minimized and signal stability is improved.

[0043] Each module (such as the Ethernet port, USB port, intelligent MCU, and all-network 4G communication chip) is connected via traces on the PCB circuit board. Specifically, the signal transmission lines utilize a differential signaling design, effectively reducing signal interference and noise, ensuring efficient data transmission. Furthermore, to reduce power consumption and increase transmission speed, the circuit board's signal traces utilize short paths and wide bandwidths to minimize signal attenuation and delay during transmission.

[0044] To ensure efficient system operation, the PCB features independent power management areas, ensuring stable power supply to each module. Load balancing is considered in the power circuit design, preventing the impact of power supply voltage fluctuations on the communication modules. The power layer and ground layer are well isolated to prevent interference from power supply noise.

[0045] In high-frequency signal transmission environments, the PCB's anti-interference capabilities are particularly important. To enhance this capability, a large ground plane is used on the circuit board surface, and this ground plane is properly isolated from other signal layers to reduce electromagnetic interference. Furthermore, the PCB design considers heat dissipation, employing a heat dissipation design to ensure that each module maintains a stable operating temperature even under prolonged, high-load operation.

[0046] Working principle: First, the power data collected by the lower-level equipment is transmitted to the inside of the module through the Ethernet interface or USB interface. After receiving the data, the intelligent MCU, as the control core of the system, is responsible for parsing and formatting the data, and converting it into a format suitable for transmission through the all-network 4G communication chip. The intelligent MCU controls the 4G communication chip to select the best network channel to ensure that the data can be uploaded under the optimal network conditions. During the data upload process, the all-network 4G communication chip not only provides a stable communication channel, but also ensures the security of the data through encryption technology. At the same time, the entire system realizes the electrical connection and signal transmission between modules through the PCB circuit board. The power management system ensures the stable operation of each module, and the anti-interference design improves the reliability of the system. Through precise signal control and optimized circuit layout, this module ensures that data transmission always remains efficient and stable in a complex power environment, and has strong anti-interference ability. Through the synergistic effect of the above-mentioned modules, the concentrator high-speed 4G communication module of the present invention can efficiently and stably complete the task of uploading power information, meeting the high requirements of modern power systems for data transmission speed and stability.
