In this paper, a new interference-free Home CDMA-PLC(Code Division Multiple Access-Power Line Communication) system based on the binary ZCD(Zero Correlation Duration) spreading code is proposed as a key solution to overcome the previous problems. Binary ZCD spreading code sets with enlarged family sizes are generated by carrying out a chip-shift operation of the preferred pairs. The properties or the proposed ZCD-PLC systems are effective for MPI(Multi-Path Interference) and MAI (Multiple Access Interference) cancellation in the CDMA-PLC systems. By BER performance simulation, we certified the availability of proposed ZCD-CDMA-PLC system.

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.

In this paper, the characteristics of the household AC power line network is analyzed for the low bit rate powerline communication (PLC) in the frequency range from 10㎑ to 450㎑ The PLC channel transfer characteristics including its characteristic impedance are derived based on the network topology which is constructed with the household power lines loaded with the various types of electric apparatus. Both the distributed circuit analysis and the lumped circuit model based analysis are applied for the characterization of the PLC channel and the results are compared by the computer simulations. The analysis illustrates very well the adverse effects caused by the loading of electric apparatus and as well those casued by the reflection of wavers in the household AC Power line communication network.

Power Line Communication(PLC) is the old technique. But it's worked in a very low spees. Developing of wireless communication technique, PLC is adopted these tech, for high speed communication. However, Power line environment differ from wireless environment. This paper survey modulation techniques and find the best modulation technique which is appropriate for power line environment.

This paper presents the implementation of Power Line Communication(PLC) module which can reduce standby-power consumption. The suggested PLC module consists of PLC modem, coupling circuit, ZCP(Zero-Cross Point) Circuit and main SMPS control relay. The test results under power line communication test-bed used home appliance show the 77% saving of standby-power.

In this paper, a communication system that is not using the communication line but power line is presented. It will be very useful for an information-oriented society with tole-metering and home automation. Conventional system has a difficulty in transmitting information due to decreasing communication voltage. Proposed idea is a special type switching amplifier system which has a low inner resistance and using high efficient ferrite core in a coupling circuit. This new system is proposed to overcome the loss of conductor load and coupling circuit in a PLC system.

This paper deals a watt-hour meter monitor system applying a Power Line Communication (PLC) MODEM and a Data Concentrator Unit (DCU) which can apply to Internet map based Graphical User Interface (GUI). The PLC MODEM is profitable by saving the cost of installing dedicated wiring, and Internet map GUI also is able to contribute an easy access to monitoring system for non export users. This system makes it possible to monitor the amount of electricity of previous/ current month metering data via Internet mapping service. The implement system can easily apply a PC-management for the electric charges and maintenance with gathering the metering data.

This paper presents the design and implementation of MIB for SNMP-based PLC system which is applicable to communication for railway vehicles. The proposed MIB has four nodes which are "Basic Information", "Configuration", "Stats", and "Alarm." The essential peripheral functions for "Alarm" to improve the performance of PLC are deyised. ACF is for auto connecting devices without intervention of the user. DEC is for checking the loss of data and the presence of error. DLPF is for preventing the loss of data and error To evaluate the proposed system, the experimental set-up is developed and the experiments are successfully carried out. The conclusion points out that the suggested MIB contributes the betterment of the conventional PLC systems.

This paper describes the measurement and analysis of the basic line constants in PLC(Power Line Communication) in the residential building. An apartment is considered as one of the conventional residences to get the line constants in this paper, Agilent 4263B LCR Meter is used to measure the detailed values each area and the specific results and averaged analysis data are shown in the tables. The measured results are a little bit different from the calculated values using conventional formula due to the line arrangement, neglected factors, complex permittivity, and etc. This paper describes many kinds of lines and wiring figures of domestic construction. It can be utilized with the analyzed line characteristics in frequency domain as a planning reference of PLC.
