With the development of intelligentization of thermal power plants

5G communication technology has gradually entered the field of wireless network in thermal power plants. On the basis of introducing key technical characteristics of 5G communication technology

this paper analyzes the system architecture of 5G communication technology in the data transmission scenarios of mobile equipment

wiring difficulties equipment and remote equipment

by taking the intelligent inspection system

wireless control system of the bucket-wheel stacker and wireless control system of the water source as examples. Finally

against the security of 5G communication technology in thermal power plants

several suggestions such as network hierarchical management

network slicing isolation

distributed security certification and the establishment of an artificial intelligence security platform are put forward.
