Power Line Carrier-Based Ultra-Low-Power Dual-Mode Wireless Four-in-One Communication Solution
2025-10-11
This solution leverages the electricity user consumption data collection system platform to enable the gathering of data from electricity, water, gas, and heat meters. In local communication, the concentrator primarily uses either narrowband high-speed OFDM power line communication (BW1600) or dual-mode communication (BW1601, combining power line and low-power wireless) for downstream transmission. These methods deliver high communication speeds and ensure reliable network performance, while also providing flexible adaptability to a wide range of application scenarios.

Power Line Carrier-Based Remote Automatic Meter Reading Solution
2025-10-11
Currently, the electricity consumption information collection systems—also known as remote meter-reading systems—used by State Grid and China Southern Power Grid include a master station data server platform, concentrators, meter terminals or data collector terminals, a remote network connecting the concentrators to the master station (typically utilizing GPRS/3G/4G networks), and a power-line carrier (PLC) local network linking the concentrators to the meters or collectors, as illustrated below. BoviaX’s meter-reading solution leverages the PLC local network to communicate directly with meters via the grid’s distribution lines, eliminating the need for dedicated wiring and making installation and maintenance particularly convenient. Additionally, the system can be equipped with the company’s newly developed 4G module, effectively addressing communication challenges between the master station and concentrators.

Electricity is an energy source that uses electrical power as its driving force. Invented in the 1870s, the discovery and application of electricity sparked the second industrial revolution, marking one of the three major technological leaps in human history since the 18th century—and fundamentally transforming the way people live ever since. The large-scale electric power systems that emerged in the 20th century stand as one of humanity’s most significant achievements in the history of engineering science. These systems consist of interconnected components, including power generation, transmission, transformation, distribution, and consumption, enabling the conversion of natural primary energy sources into electricity via mechanical devices. The electricity is then efficiently delivered to users through a network of transmission lines, substations, and distribution networks.

Guiyang Smart Substation Ethernet Communication Solution
2025-10-11
A digital/smart substation is built upon intelligent primary equipment and networked secondary devices, leveraging the IEC61850 communication protocol. The IEC61850 standard divides the substation’s communication architecture into three layers: the process layer, the bay layer, and the station control layer. High-speed network communication is employed both within each layer and between them.
The substation’s overall communication network can be further categorized into two key components: the station control layer communication network, which connects the station control layer with the bay layer, and the process layer communication network, linking the bay layer with the process layer.
This advanced substation design enables seamless information sharing and interoperability among smart electrical devices, paving the way for a modernized power infrastructure.
