Abstract

This research proposes a scheme of power information system based on quantum communication, aiming at improving the reliability and security of power service transmission. The new algorithm LD-WFQ (improved weighted fair queue) prioritizes the data packets that are about to timeout by estimating the expected time consumption of the data packets to be encrypted, so as to reduce the quantum encryption timeout rate of low priority services. The experimental results show that the LD-WFQ algorithm does not affect the performance of high priority services while reducing the ratio of overtime data packets, and shows good optimization effects under different key request rates. Compared with the traditional WFQ algorithm, the LD-WFQ algorithm has obvious advantages in meeting the requirements of power business encryption and improving the utilization rate of quantum keys, and has practical application significance.

Dong Wu, Linyu Peng, Dili Peng +4 more

In order to meet the demand of quantum key generation rate for power business encryption, a quantum security encryption communication framework for power enterprises is proposed. Combining the deployment mode of power distribution terminal and communication network architecture, this paper uses the M/M/1 model with preemptive priority to calculate the queuing delay of each service’s quantum key, and compare it with the delay requirements to determine whether quantum encryption is possible. The simulation results show that the key generation rate is required to reach 205 kbit/s if the quantum encryption requirements of all services need to be met under the service type and traffic volume of this case. Conclusion: Under the limited generation rate, a reasonable and scientific method is given for the selective application of quantum encryption to power information services.

Guochun Li, Su-xiang ZHANG, Wei Deng +3 more

With the expansion of the power grid and the increase of the complexity of the power system, the power grid has more stringent requirements for the security of the services transmission. In the secondary protection system of power systems, traditional encryption devices use symmetric encryption algorithms to add and decrypt communication data. Quantum keys have extremely high security. Applying the quantum keys to the power communication network encryption devices can greatly improve the security of service transmission. The quantum key resources generated by the existing quantum key distribution devices is limited, and it is difficult to ensure that all power services data are encrypted and transmitted. Therefore, it is necessary to prioritize the confidential transmission of important services by establishing appropriate evaluation methods for services importance. A relative importance matrix based on the transmission performance indicators of each service was built under the background of quantum communication, so as to obtain the importance of the power communication network business, and to carry out subsequent quantum key application strategy research.

The power communication system provides powerful technical support for realizing the intelligent operation and information management of the power grid and improving the operation efficiency and power supply quality of the power grid. Quantum key distribution (QKD) is considered one of the most promising technologies for commercialization. QKD uses a single photon to encrypt data to produce a more secure and reliable password. This paper intends to study the hierarchical, centralized control architecture of power dispatching based on quantum essential supply (QKD). The performance indexes of MDI-QKD under symmetric and asymmetric conditions were studied by local optimization. The optimal key formation rate of the algorithm is analyzed. From the perspective of quantum critical utilization, a quantum key utilization scheme for grid backbone dispatching service is proposed. The dynamic adjustment test of multi-node time slot and service key update rate is carried out. Experiments show that the MDI scheme can effectively improve the effectiveness of a multi-node QKD system. Thus, the security of data transmission of the core business of power dispatching data networks can be ensured to the greatest extent. AMDI can effectively reduce the transmission timeout of low-priority data streams because the delay of high-priority data streams reaches the proportion. It can be an excellent solution to the power system and the password requirements.

This paper proposes an information encryption transmission method for power system communication network based on quantum security communication technology, which can effectively encrypt the information in power system and ensure the security of information transmission. Based on quantum secure communication technology, the communication network architecture of power system is constructed. Quantum-layer quantum key distribution Network (QKD) uses BB84 protocol to realize quantum information exchange and optical synchronization, provide quantum key to control layer, and encrypt network information of power system. The control layer is responsible for monitoring QKD status, reasonably managing keys, and issuing communication commands to the communication layer. The communication layer switch encrypts and transmits the power system communication network data generated by the application layer through the minimum attenuation routing algorithm according to the controller instruction. Experiments show that this method can realize the information encryption of power system communication network, and the quantum key encryption function, key source exchange function and the number of encryption services meet the requirements. The application of this method can improve the throughput and communication connectivity of power system communication network.
