Abstract
The coordination of various terminals in the power grid requires time consistency. If there is an error in time synchronization, it will cause time misalignment and difficulties in grid data analysis. Due to the existence of massive terminals in the power grid, the existing time synchronization technology cannot be applied to the big data scenario for multi-source grid. Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) effectively combines Internet of Things (IoT) and mobile network technologies to achieve a more flexible time distribution mechanism and more accurate edge-side time synchronization accuracy. MEC and Precision Time Protocol(PTP) are applied to time distribution for the power grid in this paper. And a high-precision time distribution mechanism based on MEC for multi-source power grid is described in this paper. Simulation results show that the time synchronization accuracy can be improved by using MEC for time distribution.
