Abstract: In order to overcome the problem of poor load balance of power heterogeneous communication equipment, this paper proposes a software defined network (SDN)-based load balance selection method for power heterogeneous communication equipment, which divides the architecture into three levels: application, control and infrastructure. This paper introduces the load balance structure of distributed and centralised integration, and uses the centralised control of wireless access point to realise the unified control of communication equipment terminal access. Taking the minimum mean square error of load rate and the minimum total number of resources occupied as the objective function, the genetic algorithm is introduced to solve the optimal solution of the objective function, real business and network connection relevance, so as to obtain the load of power heterogeneous communication equipment. The experimental results show that the total time-consuming is about 9 s, and the average blocking rate is 0.04.

Keywords: software defined network; SDN; power; heterogeneous; communication equipment; load balancing.
