Conventionally, the transmission network 2 adopts a double-ring network to ensure transmission stability, and the transmission network 2 is connected to all stations of a subway line. The source control platform 1 is connected to the ATS and the AFC. The source control platform 1 uses the ATS to obtain the driving position information of the subway vehicles and uses the AFC to collect the passenger flow information.

The edge computing controller 4 is connected to the transmission network 2 through the convergence switch 3. The data acquisition linkage terminal 5 is connected to the edge computing controller 4 and the station terminal device. The convergence switch 3 and the edge computing controller 4 are redundantly arranged, that is, each of the data acquisition linkage terminals 5 is connected to at least two of the edge computing controllers 4 at the same time, and each of the edge computing controllers 4 is connected to at least two of the convergence switches 3 at the same time.
[0023] The data acquisition linkage terminal 5 is used for online monitoring and control of the station terminal equipment.

Correspondingly, the station terminal equipment includes a 10kV switch cabinet, a 1500V switch cabinet, a 400V switch cabinet, a UPS (uninterruptible power supply), ventilation and air conditioning equipment, water supply and drainage equipment, power lighting equipment and escalators.

The above-mentioned smart meter, circuit breaker sensor, battery sensor and modular multilevel converter are respectively connected to a group of edge computing controllers 4 (2 edge computing controllers 4). The bridge arm of the modular multilevel converter is composed of a series of sub-modules connected in series, and the sub-modules are composed of semiconductor power switching devices such as IGBT. The converter receives the dispatching instructions of the upper system, flexibly controls the number of sub-modules put into the upper bridge arm and the lower bridge arm, stabilizes the converter power and output characteristics, and the rectification state can maintain the stability of the DC bus voltage, and the inverter state can increase the energy feedback utilization efficiency.

[0027] The number of the edge computing controllers 4 is not limited to 2 groups, but mainly depends on the size of the station, that is, the number of the data collection linkage terminals 5 and the like.
[0028] The data acquisition linkage terminal 5 collects the operating data of the station terminal equipment in real time and transmits it to the edge computing controller 4. The edge computing controller 4 controls the station terminal equipment through the data acquisition linkage terminal 5 according to the control strategy. For example: adaptive dynamic parameter optimization of the chiller and air-conditioning unit is performed in combination with the changes in station environmental parameters and the peak and low passenger flow periods. The edge computing controller 4 transmits the operating data of the station terminal equipment it receives and the calculation results of the control strategy to the source control platform 1 through the aggregation switch 3 and the transmission network 2.
