  • Currently the development of powerline communication technology has become possible due to the high-speed communications. But the communication lines used for power line communication, not wires carrying power wiring is because when sending high-frequency wireless communication system unintentionally be influenced. To compensate for these shortcomings by using notch filters to reduce interference has been studied. Wavelet-based OFDM on the other hand by the method has been used to reduce interference. Wavelet-based OFDM has been used in the existing powerline OFDM scheme using FFT instead of the general structure of the CMFB filters to generate a signal. By doing so, subtly signals per frequency band, cut it, is to realize how efficient highways. It brought a deep filter characteristics, a flexible notch filter can be achieved without an external circuit has an advantage. In this paper, Using Wavelet OFDM powerline communication system is designed and presented the results of simulations.

  • Ferrite cores are used as a soft magnetic material in the fabrication of couplers for inductive powerline communication (PLC). However, it is difficult to adjust the size freely according to the power-line and power-grid environment. In this paper, we report that a nano-crystalline alloy with higher permeability than ferrite can be used as an inductive coupler for non-contact PLC. Since nano-crystalline are produced in the form of a thin ribbon, the size of the coupler can be freely controlled by the number of ribbons wound on the toroidal core. It was fabricated with induction type coupler and showed to be suitable for non-contact power line communication. Experimental results show that the communication bandwidth is 45 Mbps for 100 m and 8 Mbps for 200 m under the current fluctuation of less than 100 A, and the reception ratio is 100%.

  • This paper is about power line communication(PLC) over the low power voltage grid. The main advantage with power line communication is the use of an existing infrastructure. The PLC channel can be modeled as having multi-path propagation with frequency-selective fading, typical power lines exhibit signal attenuation increasing with length and frequency. OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is a modulation technique where multiple low data rate carriers are combined by a transmitter to form a composite high data rate transmission. The performance in consideration of the multi-path(echoes) powerline scheme is analyzed and verified by computer simulation.

  • Powerline communications (PLC) technology has been discussed and analyzed as a highly potential candidate of wireline access network solutions. In this paper, performance of double binary turbo coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system is analyzed and simulated in power line communications channel. In order to make power line channel environments, Bernoulli-Gaussian noise is considered. The performance is evaluated in terms of bit error probability. From the simulation results, it is demonstrated that the double binary turbo coding scheme offers considerable coding gain with reasonable encoding complexity. It is also shown that the system performance can be substantially improved by increasing the number of iterations.

  • In this paper, impedance characteristics of overhead medium-voltage (MV) power line for power line communication (PLC) is analyzed. For analysis, a two-port equivalent network model of MV power lines is derived. By applying the equivalent model and basic transmission line theory, input impedance at the signal induction part is calculated. And also calculated input impedance of power line itself that the medium voltage coupler and coaxial cable effect are removed. For verification, impedance of power lines is measured at a test field for an MV PLC. The results show that impedance of MV power line itself is between $200\;{\Omega}\;and\;300\;{\Omega}$ and converges to a half of their characteristic impedance with increasing frequency. And also measured data is very similar to calculated data.

  • Powerline communications (PLC) is a promising medium for network access technology where smart grid aided network services can be provided. In the presence of frequency selective fading in the PLC channel, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a technique for reliable communications. This paper presents a spectral efficient method using a superimposed hidden pilot for OFDM-based PLC systems. Based on the scheme using a hidden pilot, it is possible to estimate the channel with no consumption of bandwidth, but with utilization of power allocated to the hidden pilot. Computer simulations showed that the proposed scheme provides higher achievable data rate than that of the conventional schemes in low voltage and medium voltage transmission lines.

  • In this paper 10Mbps master-slave based PLC modems are tested for measuring and analyzing both network and application level performances in the general buildings. The devices under test consist of one master PLC modem and three slave modems. The selected parameters for inspecting the performances are throughput, latency and frame loss rate from the RFC 2544, and one-to-many and many-to-one throughput from the RFC 2285. The results of the performance test show that the PLC modems have Performed better in data transmission when the frame size is increased and the transmission speed is decreased. It is expected that these results will be useful to analyze the effect of noise sources when compared to the performance test under the noiseless environments.
