A Time-sensitive Traffic Scheduling Algorithm for Industrial Network of Power Grid

Abstract

Industrial Internet communications in power scenarios are highly time-sensitive and require low network latency and high stability. Therefore, in order to ensure the smooth operation of the automated production line, we propose a time-sensitive traffic scheduling (TsTS) algorithm combined with SRv6 technology based on the application background of industrial and civil converged networks. The method is: through the previous hop node sensing of network congestion Link congestion, and then adjust the detour path for time-sensitive traffic through Dijkstra’s algorithm. Moreover, in order to effectively reduce the link overhead of SRH and prevent bandwidth waste caused by large IPv6 addresses, we also propose a node list compression algorithm for detour paths. The core method is to put only necessary nodes into SRH, that is, Sensitive traffic can be forwarded with the help of ordinary routing. Experiments show that this method performs well in terms of delay and link utilization.
