Abstract

In this paper, we make use of the software defined network (SDN) technology’s characteristic of separating the function of forwarding and control to concentrate control function in the control layer (comprised by SDN controllers), and design a kind of communication network architecture for energy interconnection. Firstly, we give the concept of Intelligent Energy Controller (IEC), and make it as the device to arrange information from underlying network and implement commands from upper layer. Then, we describe the architecture and running process of the system, by introducing in detail the design of the architecture and the flow of information flowing in the network and how to process them. At the end, we analyze the benefits and hidden dangers of the architecture, to reveal the advantages and disadvantages of the architecture, as a reference to related researches.
