Dynamic Protocol Switching for Abnormal Waveform Data Transmission
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional abnormal waveform monitoring systems in distribution systems are inefficient in transmitting large-capacity data, such as voltage and current waveforms, due to their reliance on the Distributed Network Protocol (DNP), which leads to increased analysis time and delays in responding to faults.
Innovation Solution
A system and method that dynamically switch between data transfer protocols based on data capacity, using Distributed Network Protocol (DNP) for smaller data sets and File Transfer Protocol (FTP) or Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) for larger data sets, allowing for quick transmission of abnormal waveforms from Remote Terminal Units (RTUs) to a Front End Processor (FEP) and then to a main server, enabling rapid analysis and fault management.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Speed
If the Distributed Network Protocol (DNP) is used for data transmission in conventional abnormal waveform monitoring systems, then the system can transmit voltage and current waveform data, but the transmission speed is slow and analysis time is increased
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically selects between DNP and FTP protocols based on the type of data being transmitted. For abnormal waveform data requiring rapid analysis, FTP is selected to achieve faster transmission speeds, while DNP is used for常规 monitoring data
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the transmission protocol parameter from a fixed DNP protocol to a variable protocol selection mechanism that can switch between DNP and FTP based on data characteristics and transmission requirements, thereby optimizing transmission speed for different scenarios
2Productivity
If the DNP protocol is used for transmitting large-capacity waveform data, then the system maintains protocol simplicity, but the transmission efficiency decreases and fault response time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements dynamic protocol selection where FTP is activated specifically for large-capacity abnormal waveform data transmission to improve productivity and reduce transmission time, while maintaining DNP for other monitoring functions
Solution Approach 2:
The Front End Processor acts as an intermediary that receives data from RTUs and selectively applies different transmission protocols (DNP or FTP) based on the data type and transmission requirements, thereby optimizing overall system productivity
