Research on Power Service Route Planning Scheme Based on SDN Architecture and Reinforcement Learning Algorithm
Abstract
:1. Introduction
- We establish a power communication network service route planning architecture based on SDN and define power service and network state parameters.
- We aim to reduce the variance of network risk and propose a route planning scheme based on the SARSA algorithm for service routes while satisfying the conditions of link bandwidth and RPSO.
- Assuming that power services arrive in chronological order, we provide a route planning process for multiple services.
