This paper describes that send some signal from encoder attached to crankshaft of marine-engine to measuring instrument using power line modem(PLM) and display cylinder pressure, rpm and etc. on LCD. Conventional method that sends signal along the long signal line has some inconvenience from too long signal line length caused by huge volume of ship's engine. Power line modem can have short signal line from outlets to measuring instrument. Because it use exist power line for send signals, so it have low installation cost and could have good merits in job sites. Through this experiment, pressure in cylinder, engine rpm and etc. signals through PLM are well recognized at measuring instrument.

This paper has studied a remote AMR(Automatic Meter Reading) system using the power line and the telephone line as a communication media and the digital power meter. In the developed system, because we have used the power line and telephone, the facility is very easy and then its cost is not expensive. The system includes following elements: a digital power meter, an indoor communication system using a power line modem and a telephone line interface system for sending data to the utility company.

To realize the power line communication system, the line coupler is one of the most important systems, which must be adjustable to the power line characteristics. In this paper, three kinds of line couplers were designed and simulated with the Pspice, which could be useful to the power line communication systems in C-Band(95kHz-148.5kHz) frequency

To design the light control system using the PLC(Power Line Communication) with the ballasts of MH(Metal Halide) lamps, we analyzed the noise effect on the power line by the electronic ballast. For the power line characteristics are changed by the loads, the ballast have to be designed to be suitable to the PLC. Therefore, this paper proposed the optimal ballast and designed two kinds of PLM(Power Line Modem) which one is ASK type and the other is FSK type. Two type of PLM have used the manchester codes or DS/SS code. Experimental results have shown that the FSK type modem by the DS/SS coding technique have the best characteristics.

The design of coupling and rectifying circuits for the maritime VHF digital modem is investigated in this paper. To monitor the transmitting power of the modem, a directional coupler which is used to extract a small fraction of the transmitter signal power, and a rectifying circuit which make DC voltage proportional to the coupled rf power are designed and fabricated. The parallel-coupled line coupler with directivity of above 25 dB at 160 MHz bands is designed and it is shown that the output voltage of the rectifying circuit is linearly changing from 0.85 V to 1.6 V when the transmitting power of the modem is varying from 1 W to 25 W. The proposed coupler and rectifying circuits are expected to be suitable for maritime VHF digital modem.

In the embodiment of power line modem, the important elements are selection of a suitable line-coupler, choice of a modulation method good for channel environments, and an efficient data coding method etc. In this paper an appropriate modulation method was implemented their results in details and verified by the simulations. The data compensation request techniques that uses error checking was discussed. Finally, application of other modulation method by detection of error rate per bit according to vary of channel error caused by electric equipment that is connected to power line was studied.

This paper describes the implementation of control and monitoring system of ship's lamps at local area using power line communication method, power line modem(PLM). We design modem, microprocessor interface for electric power control by frequency control and analog to digital signal conversion, lamp device. PLM communication is very economical using existing electric power line unlike RS-232, RS-485 communications. We verify and confirm by experimental work that control and monitor lamp system for ship by an PLM communication.

PLC (Power Line Communication) is the communication method using the existing power line installed in houses and offices to convert and transmit high frequency communication signal from tens of KHz to tens of MHz, and receive the filtered signal using high frequency filter. The advantage of PLC is that PLC uses the existing power line installed in houses and offices so it does not require separate power line. Easy and convenient access using electric outlets is another advantage of PLC. However, PLC has some disadvantages such as limited transmission power, high load interference and noise, variable signal attenuation, characteristic of impedance selective possibility of frequency property. This study designed the boiler temperature control system by unit using the modem designed on the basis of technology used for PLC modem, and designed remote control system using internet. After conducting experiments with those two systems, it was possible to control stably. By commercializing this product, we can avoid unnecessary heating of separate temperature control unit, and save the cost according1y, and it is possible to control on a remote site using internet in a more convenient way.

For the power line communication, we studied its characteristic impedance, noise characteristics, loss characteristics and the coupling circuit between the communication MODEM and power lines. As the results of the experiments, we concluded that the power line impedance in a house varied in the wide range because the electric systems generate the current and voltage hamornic noises.
