전력선 이용 통신(PLC)은 전화선, CATV 망, 위성에 이어 제4의 통신망 산업으로 급부상하고 있다. 본 고에서는 피엘콤 이더넷 PLC를 중심으로 PLC의 기술특성 및 인터넷 접속가격 비교를 통해 국내 PLC 시장을 전망하였다. PLC는 기술적인 측면에서 제한된 전송전력, 높은 부하 간섭, 가변감쇠, 그리고 임피던스 레벨 등의 단점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 속도 및 가격 측면에서는 절대 및 비교우위를 가지고 있다. 따라서 기술적인 문제점들을 해결하여 상용화에 성공할 경우 기존의 인터넷접속 서비스 상품과 경쟁하는 제3의 유선통신망으로 등장하면서 기존 통신서비스 시장의 구도를 크게 바꾸어 놓을 것으로 전망된다.

In order to simplify the wiring of construction heavy equipment, researches on PLC(Power Line Communication)-CAN(Controller Area Network) communication module are actively proceeding. Even if a PLC-CAN communication module is developed, a simulator capable of judging whether the PLC-CAN communication module is operating normally is needed. In this paper, we designed and developed a simulator that can measure the status of PLC-CAN communication module. We analyzed the characteristics of the power line communication frequency band by analyzing the characteristics of the power line and compared the noise characteristics with the passenger car in order to characterize the heavy equipment noise.

전력선 이용 통신(PLC : Power Line Communication)는 전화선, CATV망, 위성에 이어 제4의 통신망 산업으로 급부상하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 젤라인 및 피엘콤의 PLC를 중심으로 기술특성 및 인터넷 접속가격 비교을 통해 PLC 와 다른 대체상품과의 경쟁력을 분석하였다. PLC는 기술적인 측면에서 제한된 전송전력, 높은 부하 간섭, 가변감쇄, 그리고 임피던스 레벨등의 단점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 PLC는 다른 대체상품에 비해 속도 및 가격측면에서 절대 및 비교우위를 가지고 있다. 따라서 기술적인 문제점들을 해결하여 상용화에 성공할 경우 기존의 인터넷접속 서비스 상품과 경쟁하는 제3의 유선통신망으로 등장하면서 기존 통신서비스 시장의 구도를 크게 바꾸어 놓을 것으로 전망된다.

In this paper, collecting real-time data frames that occur during RS232 communication between an HMI and PLC of automation equipment by sniffing real-time information data frames through MCU without modification of the HMI or PLC, a method is proposed that allows users to collect data without being dependent on the modification of PLC and HMI systems. The user collects necessary information from the sniffing data through the parsing operation, and the original communication interface is maintained by transmitting the corresponding sniffing frame to the destination. The MCU's UART communication interface circuit is physically designed according to the RS232 communication standard, and this additionally improves efficiency more so than an interrupt-based system by using the DMA device inside the MCU. In addition, the data frame IO operation is performed by logically separating the work of the DMA interrupt service routine from the work of the main thread using the circular queue. Through this method, the user receives the sniffing data frame between the HMI and PLC in RS232 format, and the frame transfer between PLC and HMI arrives normally at the original destination. By sniffing the data frame without further modification of the PLC and HMI, it can be confirmed that it arrives at the user system normally.

Power Line Communication (PLC) is a system for carrying data on a conductor used for electric power transmission. Recently, PLC has received much attention due to connection efficiency and possibility of extension. It can be used for not only alternative communication, in which communication line is not sufficient, but also for communication between home appliances. Korea Electronic Power Cooperation (KEPCO) is constructing the system, which automatically collects values of power consumption of every household. Due to the randomness and complicated physical characteristics of PLC protocol (KS X4600-1), it has been believed that the current PLC is secure in the sense that it is hard that an attacker guesses or modifies the value of power consumption. However, we show that the randomness of the protocol is closely related to state of the communication line and thus anyone can easily guess the randomness by checking the state of the communication line. In order to analyze the security of PLC, we study the protocol in detail and show some vulnerability. In addition, we suggest that PLC needs more secure protocol on higher layers. We expect that the study of PLC help in designing more secure protocol as well.

This paper first outlines the technology used in Power Line Communications(PLC) systems, and the political support being offered to the technology, from the point of view of its effect on electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). The radio spectrum needs protection from other interferers, and there is a regime in place to provide this interference avoidance/mitigation. Nevertheless, PLC has several features that mean that it is capable of creating such interference. These features are discussed, and some published field trial results are reviewed. Difficulties in achieving compatibility between the requirements for radio protection and the requirements for operation of the PLC system mean that there is no consensus as yet as to how PLC system components can be made compliant with EMC requirements. It is concluded that there is little prospect of an accommodation between the competing demands, so that if PLC is to become widespread it will be at the expense of the radio environment.
