Abstract
In this paper, we first analysed the ability of DSSS resistance against noises, which are main interferences to the four types in power line communications. Based on the characteristic of these noises, we made a noise source of power line which is similar with the result measured, in practice. We simulated and analysed the BER performance of BPSK with DSSS over this noise model and one without the DSSS, for comparison. Result showed that the BPSK with DSSS system has improved by 8 dB, as compared to those without the DSSS, as against power line noises.
