RS485通讯、低压电力载波通信、短距离无线通讯技术作为现有的三种主流抄表技术,因其自身技术缺陷,已无法满足电力系统高度可靠的要求。而塑料光纤作为新一代电力传输介质,对于智能集抄系统及窄带物联网(NB-IoT)具有重要的战略意义。从塑料光纤的特性、塑料光纤用于智能集抄系统的设计、实施路径以及应用角度出发,系统阐述了塑料光纤作为通信介质用于智能集抄等方面具备巨大的价值,对比结果表明,塑料光纤智能抄表系统可实现串口通讯速率快、可靠性高、稳定性强及提升抄表效率等技术优势,从而对我国塑料光纤的高端应用提供实际指导意义。

The existing three main stream meter reading technologies, including RS485 communication, low-voltage power line carrier communication and short-range wireless communication technology have been unable to meet the highly-reliable requirements of the power system due to their own technical defects. As a new generation of power transmission medium, plastic optical fiber has important strategic significance for smart collection system and narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT). In this paper, the characteristics of plastic optical fiber, plastic optical fiber used in smart collection system design, implementation path and application point of view, the great value of the plastic optical fiber as a communication medium for smart collection are expounded. The comparison results show that the plastic optical fiber intelligent meter reading system can achieve the serial communication speed, high reliability, stability and enhance the efficiency of meter reading and other technical advantages. The results provide the practical guidance for the high-end applications of plastic fiber in our country to provide practical guidance.
