Object-oriented optical interconnection distributed parallel processor array network for integrated substation automation system

In order to advance the level of integrated substation automaton system (ISAS), a novel object-oriented optical interconnection distributed parallel processor array network used to ISAS is established. The function unit (FU) and the optical interconnection network (OIN) are important parts of the ISAS. The FUs include protection unit, control unit, monitoring unit, man-machine unit and so on. The massively optical interconnection distributed parallel processor array network consists of various kinds of protection units, control units and other units by means of the OIN. In this paper, the architecture and implementation of FU and OIN are described in detail. Results show that the ISAS not only has high parallel processing ability to coordinate the relationship organically between the FUs, but also has advantages of high speed, large bandwidth, immunity to electromagnetic interference as well as being simple, reliable, economic and easy to compact
