네트워크 통신(network communication)을 위해서는 개별 정보가전기기의 전원인가 상태가 상시 유지되어야 하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위해, 통신요청시에는 그 때마다 통신동작이 가능하도록 충분한 전력공급을 제공하는 절대조건을 만족시키는 반면, 통신대기시에는 최소한의 전력만이 공급됨으로서 해서 초절전을 실현할 수 있는 정보가전기기의 PLC통신모듈용 전원장치를 먼저 개발하였다. 그리고, 최근 절전이 강조되고 있은 시점에서, 제품자체의 절전기능이 포함되어 전기에너지를 절약할 수도 있지만, 사용자의 절전의지와 행위에 의해서도 전기에너지를 절약할 수 있다. 이러한 관점에서 볼때 본 연구개발에서는, 제품의 전원플러그를 콘센트에 꽂는 과정에서 콘센트와 전원플러그 사이에 전기에너지량을 계측할 수 있는 전자회로 및 계측값을 나타내는 표시장치 그리고 필요에 따라서 통신기능을 포함하는 전기콘센트 단위의 Electric Energy Metering Sensor(이하 EEMS) 모듈을 개발하였다.

This paper is about design broadband impedance matching circuit for Coupler to improve power transfer efficiency in the power line communication (PLC) system. The Tchebycheff gain function algorithm is represented to design broadband matching circuit. A practical PLC Coupler impedance matching circuit is designed, and the characteristics for S11 and S21 of PLC coupler are enhanced comparing with unmatched one. This is done by maximizing the power transfer gain from modem to the load.

In the case of construction equipment, internal wiring has a very complicated structure such as an electrical wiring and hydraulic equipments. Because of these complex wiring, a lot of time is spent on maintenance and equipment manufacturing. In this paper, we design and implementation of the high-reliability PLC(Power Line Communication) -CAN(Controller Area Network) communication module to reduce electrical wiring of the construction equipment.

In this paper, We proposed remote dimming control system for Light Emitting Diode(LED) street light using Power Line Communication(PLC). LED will be used widly by indoor or outdoor lighting because of semi-permanent life and environment restriction. For energy saving of street light, the dimming control system is very necessary and the PLC is a very efficient technique. Thus, in this paper we proposed the remote dimming control system for LED street light using PLC. A performance of the proposed system was validated by experimental results.

In this paper, we propose and analyze the equalizer schemes, zero-forcing (ZF) and minimum mean square error (MMSE) in power line communication (PLC) system for automatic meter reading (AMR). For efficient implementation of AMR system with PLC, effects of impulsive noise and multipath channel should be mitigated. To overcome these effects, the above equalizer schemes are employed. System performance is evaluated in term of bit error rate. From simulation results, it is confirmed that the equalizer can significantly improve bit error rate (BER) performance in PLC system, and MMSE equalizer provides better performance than ZF scheme. The results of this paper can be applied to AMR system as well as various smart grid services using PLC.

In this paper, we proposed real time free-length monitoring systems interlocking with the spring free-length sorter which shows the state of production connected to the spring production device. This systems enable the administrator to check the quality or quantity of product and the defect rate, etc., in the remote place. The proposed systems are comprised of the wireless device interlocking with PLC device, the server program, and user GUI program. The wireless device transmits the received data from PLC device to server program using Wi-Fi. Server program represents the data from the wireless device on the screen and insert those data into database. User GUI program shows data stored in database and supports the function which converts the stored data in DB to excel file.

In this paper, we propose the implementation and performance analysis of power line communication based on SISO/MIMO-OFDM which focuses on high speed data transmission in smart grid and future power line grid. We employ Zimmermann frequency model and Middleton Class A model as the multipath power line fading channel and impulse noise channel, respectively. In this paper, in order to improve the three-phase or single-phase PLC performance, we introduce a new MRC (called a&f-MRC) which effectively sums up multiple antenna diversity gain and multipath fading diversity gain. Via simulation, we prove the performance advantage over existing SISO/MIMO systems. In addition, we offer the tradeoff on system design through comparing with MRC, EGC and SC.

Since powerline for powerline communications (PLC) is designed for supplying electric power using 60 Hz wave, they will have different electrical behaviors for high data rate PLC whose bandwidth is allocated between 1 MHz and 30 MHz. Thus, it is necessary to investigate the different properties in this frequency bandwidth for the high data rate PLC. In this paper, low voltage (220V) powerline impedance for indoor high data rate PLC in between 1 MHz and 30 MHz is measured. For measurement a low voltage coupling unit is made and a vector network analyzer is used. A T-equivalent circuit of the low voltage coupling unit is obtained and then powerline impedance is derived by measuring the reflection coefficient of the total powerline network. With the method proposed, impedance is measured in case of a general korean apartment and its property is analyzed. Measurement shows that the average impedance is about 100Ω.
