2023-04-07 AsiaInfo

Recently, AsiaInfo's product system of 5G private network and solutions for the energy industry have been developed into use in Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant, with a total contract amount of 140 million, which was another hundred-million level nuclear power order of AsiaInfo since the nuclear power projects of Hainan Nuclear Power Plant and Fuqing Nuclear Power Plant. With the leading solutions and services for private network of 5G energy industry, AsiaInfo will work together with China Nuclear Power Engineering Co., Ltd., China Mobile System Integration Co., Ltd., CMCC Jiangsu Lianyungang branch and other units to build a 5G production private network for Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant that is physically isolated from the external network and has high security, professionalism and integration, so as to lend powerful digital and intelligent capabilities into the operation of Tianwan nuclear power units in the new era. 


Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant, located in Lianyungang of Jiangsu, is the nuclear power base with the largest total installed capacity “in operation+ under construction” around the world, and with a total installed capacity of 9.138 million kilowatts. After its completion, the annual power generation hereof will exceed 70 billion kWh. It is a new responsibility for the high-quality development of China's nuclear power industry and a major force supporting to achieve China's strategic goal of “carbon peak and carbon neutrality”. 


The private network solutions of 5G energy industry provided by AsiaInfo for Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant adopts the network architecture of full sunk core network and independent networking, covering and supporting mobile communications and data transmissions in the production area (including the nuclear island, conventional island, auxiliary system plant) and front area (including office building, training center, document building, etc.) of the nuclear power plant. On the basis of ensuring network security, the 5G network interworking between the production private network and the nuclear power plant internal network has achieved, so has the network interworking between the network of production area and all indoor and outdoor areas of the front area, which has laid a digital intelligence foundation for a high-quality development of Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant. 


Products and Solutions for AsiaInfo's 5G Energy Private Network 

High Security  High Professionalism  High Integration 


AsiaInfo's solutions for 5G energy private network are driven by the business needs of the energy industry, with the 5G private network products independently developed and researched by AsiaInfo as the core, integrating pioneering technologies such as 5G and AI, currently have been put into use in nuclear power bases such as Changjiang of Hainan, Fuqing of Fujian, and Qinshan of Zhejiang. 


High Security As the Overall Plan for Safety Protection of Electric Power Monitoring System issued by National Energy Administration required, the security framework built for nuclear power plants based on the 5G private network should achieved “secure partitioning, network dedicated, horizontal segregation, and vertical certification”. AsiaInfo's solutions for 5G energy private network can realize independent private core network, complete physical isolation, data not to appear, maximum fit of meeting the requirements of secondary electric power protection, so as to provide safety control and protection in accordance with safety regulations for production business and meet the strict requirements of information security in the nuclear power field. 


High Professionalism To solve the problem of extreme environments in nuclear islands, AsiaInfo has designed the radiation-resistant base station with high performance, strong extension, and good durability; Which can realize electro-magnetic compatibility and ensure the safe and stable operation of nuclear power; CMTS is provided as well, which is a hypervelocity dedicated coaxial transmission system. Compared with traditional coaxial systems, CMTS speed of data interaction is increased by more than ten times; Including digital distributed Antenna System with ultra-large capacity that can provide a single plant room with concurrent capacity equal to 400 terminals. 


High Integration AsiaInfo's solutions for 5G energy private network can achieve the integration between business and network. The solutions provide supporting basic application products such as intelligent terminal cabinet, 5G private network terminal, positioning bracelet, and a unified operation management platform with 5G private network functions, building a one-stop platform management capability covering multi-service integration and expansion of trunked dispatch system, precise localization system, AIoT, edge computing, intelligent self operation and maintenance network management system, etc., to achieve integration and collaboration of network management, business integration, information security, sensor access, terminal management and spatial awareness, which has laid a solid foundation for the digitization, mobility, and whole process tracking of the operation and maintenance process. 


AsiaInfo's 5G private network products 


The 5G private network products independently developed and researched by AsiaInfo, including the core network products, wireless network products, and operation platforms of the 5G private network, edge computing platform products, and other software and hardware, are combined with multiple capabilities such as 5G private network planning, design, construction, operation and maintenance, and provide customers with end-to-end one-stop solutions as those products.
