Research on the Application of 5G Edge Computing Technology in the Power Internet of Things

The basic guarantee factor for the construction of power Internet of Things is the comprehensive perception and interconnection of information. In the case of ensuring the normal operation of the power system, the efficiency and stability of the system should be improved as much as possible. With the digital transformation of the power grid, a large amount of data is generated by power terminals, which puts forward higher requirements on computing, storage, and network performance. Therefore, edge computing technology is introduced into the power Internet of Things. The edge computing framework proposed in this paper is based on the business needs of the power grid, and this paper describes the application of edge computing in typical scenarios such as transmission, substation, and distribution. edge computing has lower latency, higher efficiency, security protection and other performance. Therefore, the application of edge computing in the power Internet of Things is of great significance.
