Abstract :
The so-called "multimedia network RTU" featured in this article integrates real-time video capturing and transmission, audio analysis and electric equipment diagnosis, global positioning system (GPS), substation security supervision, and Internet protocol (IP) communication into traditional RTUs. This article: Describes three key features of the proposed system distinguishing it from the existing RTUs Details the hardware and software architecture and functions of MNRTU Provides a typical application example in Shanxi province that verifies the availability and advance of MNRTU
