In order to enhance standardization and interoperability of local level systems, AHU control network was designed with basement(8 point) and basis story(15 point) and then the network was constructed by power line communication. Each devices of AHU system were programed with neuron C of $L_{ON}W_{ORKS}$ as an open protocol. As a result of a study, each devices of the network were controlled with self dispersion process by $L_{ON}W_{ORKS}$ protocol and wiring could be reduced by power line communication.

This paper describe a method for measuring line impedance as a function of frequency for an energized powerline in normal operation. A small sinusoidal signal of a powerline communication utility frequency 30khz$\sim$1Mhz band is continuously injected into the line, and a implemented impedance analyzer calculates the indoor powerline channel impedance from the measured magnitude and phase of resulting voltage and current. The impedance measurement is executed over a range of frequencies to produce a wideband impedance versus frequency characteristic. Implemented impedance analyzer can analysis powerline communication environments measuring line impedance due to load caused in indoor. And measured analysis information through the database can use to evaluate performance of modem and to decide test environment standard.

This paper is concerned with the implementation of power line communication system with 9.6Kbps. This system is suitable to establish the smart home using the power line having been installed in house. In the suggested power line communication system, we use the chirp signal with a linearity and spread spectrum frequency band of 100KHz~200KHz. We had the performance experiment for the implementation system. The experiment was achieved in the pseudo load network similar to real circumstance of power line communication. As the result, the communications under the circumstance were accomplished satisfactorily. We confirmed that the suggested 9.6Kbps power line communication system with the Chirped-SS method had the performance enough to commercialize the smart home.

Lighting control switches based on the power line communication technology are developed and extended to incorporate dimming control to provide energy saving and appropriate illumination. The developed switch uses a general purpose microprocessor and associated electronics. Both the power line communication and the dimming function are implemented in one microprocessor, and it enables the low price commercialization. The frequency of the carrier was set at 250kHz considering the transmission data length and signal attenuation in power lines. Tests on prototypes in an low-voltage power lines have shown that the switches have a robust operation characteristics with the length of power lines and the variation of load capacities.

The current marine internal communication systems are usually composed of NMEA0183, NMEA2000, and MiTS protocols which are located on the physical layer based on RS-422, RS-485, CAN, and EtherNet. However, general vessel communication method have a weak point that must establish the extra private line. But, the power line communication has advantage over general vessel communication method as it uses AC220V/DC24V without changing line. Therefore, we will propose a new bridge based on the DC-PLC(power Line communication) technique which support the NMEA0183 protocol inside vessel network systems.

An inductive coupler, which feeds communication to the electric power transmission line, is required to establish Power Line Communication(PLC). The electro-magnetic property of magnetic core and design technology for coupler are very important to manufacture an inductive coupler for power transmission line. The magnetic core with superior electro-magnetic property was manufactured by using nanocrystalline alloy and an inductive coupler, which can operate at the maximum 2,000 A current, was designed and manufactured by establishment of current saturation, signal out winding, and electromagnetic simulation in this study. Communication speed of 14 Mbps in 600 meter communication distance of the real electric power transmission line was obtained by using the inductive coupler and application possibility of the inductive coupler for the electric power transmission line was certified.

In this paper, we presented a modeling of the power line channel and a new digital communication system over the channel. Firstly, we proposed a new tranceiver structure with DS-CDMA spread spectrum technique and convolutional coder and block interleaver against severe noisy power line environment. Also, QPSK modulation technique was used to get bandwidth efficiency. And then we performed a simulative evaluation of the system using MATLAB communication/simulink toolbox. According to the simulation results, the proposed system gives $10^{-6}$ BER at 20dB SNR.

A lighting control switch, extended to incorporate a power line communication technology, is developed. The system uses not an exclusive microprocessor but a general one, and developed PPM protocol. The coupling circuit is a type of an isolation LC filter, and the impedance of the circuit was designed as low as possible to extend signal transmission distance. The frequency of the carrier, considering the data length and signal attenuation as the length of power lines, was set at 250 kHz. Tests on a prototype in an indoor power lines have shown that the switch has a stable operation with the distance of power lines
