Time synchronization problems is very important in everyday life and a variety of industries, In this paper, we developed PLB(Power Line Broadcasting) system which broadcast time information to each device through power line modems. In our system, the smartphone synchronized to GPS time is used as a time source and we propose, develop and evaluate a relay system to solve the difficulties of long-distance transmission of power line modem technology.

PLC 시스템에서 사용되는 커플러는 전력선에 연결 형태에 따라 접촉식(Capacitive)과 비접촉식(Inductive)으로 분류된다. 특히 비접촉식 커플러에서 자기 코아(magnetic core)의 소재 특성은 커플러의 크기와 신호 손실 특성 등에 많은 영향을 준다. 본 논문에서는 비접촉식 커플러에서 자기 코아용 재료들의 물성특성과 재료 물성 변화에 따른 전력선 통신에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다.

This paper presents a systematic method of probing channel characteristics and communication reliabilities of home power line communication network applied to the Internet accessed control of home appliances. The effects of the three performance deteriorating factors, i.e., additive noise, channel attenuation, and intersymbol interference, can be systematically measured by applying the channel probing waveform in the frequency range from 100㎑ to 450㎑. Probability of bit error is derived with the probed channel parameters of the signal attenuation, noise and signal-to-interference ratio read in the frequency domain. The agreement between the derived probability of bit ewer and the measured probability of bit error support the validity of the proposed approach of probing home power line channel characteristics. The experimental results performed with the constructed test-bed applying the Proposed channel probing method and the operation reliability measurement of the overall networked system also support the feasibility of commercially deploying the PLC modem installed home appliances and their services for the Internet accessed home automation in densely populated residential apartment complexes.

This paper describes the comparison of Two frequency ranges for power line communication. The first one is that the frequency range from 100 to 400 KHz is supported by the Federal Communication Committee(FCC). The other one is that the frequency range from 1MHz to 30MHz is based on the European-supported EN5006A band. In this paper, the advantages and disadvantages of their frequency ranges are discussed for PLC. By ATP/EMTP software, the signal attenuation is simulated both the frequency ranges. It shows that the signal attenuation is bigger at high frequency than at low frequency.

The Home network system means that information appliances, Home PCs, etc., using wired or wireless network method enable to control and share with peripheral devices such as internet, shared data, a scanner and a printer, and it is networking solution, which intelligent communication will be possible as the system which can do a remote control such as TV Set, refrigerators, air conditioners, DVD players, digital camcorders based on external network using an internet, a potable information terminal and a mobile phone whenever, wherever and freely. In this study, the home network interface solution is used one of the wired network standards, PLC (Power-Line Communication) technology, so we can construct of intelligent home network's home controller without re-build a network at home. On keeping with current waves of thought, we will focus on a home controller development with great interest which is enabled to do an effective managed control, applying intelligent home network technology which can be new paradigm like a cyber apartment.

본 논문에서는 전력선 통신 모뎀에 필수적으로 사용하고 있는 AC 커플러의 대기모드 상태에서의 저전력 AC 커플러 개발에 관한 것으로, 전력선 통신(PLC : Power Line Communication) 모뎀은 디지털 가전기기를 위한 지능형 홈 네트워크 구축은 물론 원격검침 등의 각종 자동화 시스템에 활발하게 적용됨에 따라 저전력 대기모드 지원의 필요성이 요구되고 있다. 이러한 요구를 충족시키기 위해서 본 논문에서는 전력선 통신 모뎀에 필수적으로 사용하고 있는 AC 커플러의 대기모드 상태에서의 저전력 AC 커플러를 위해 1차측 AC 커플러를 송신측과 수신측으로 분리하여 설계하였다. 또한 수신 커플링 회로의 경우 현재 이용되고 있는 커플링 회로의 차단주파수를 10kHz에서 전력선 모뎀의 캐리어주파수에 영향을 미치지 않는 70kHz 고역 통과필터로 설계한다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 Simulation 및 실험을 통하여 제안된 AC 커플러가 기존 전력선 통신 모뎀과 동일한 성능을 유지하면서, 대기시 소모되는 소비전력을 크게 감소시켜, 기존 전력선 모뎀에 제안된 AC 커플러로 대치할 수 있음을 실험을 통해 규명하고 입증하였다.

In this paper, we propose the high speed PLC-based automatic control system for a smart LED streetlight. The proposed the automatic control system were constructed of a power line modem part and monitoring part, streetlight controller part for the high speed communication frequency band and streetlight ballasts characterization and real-time remote control using a high-speed PLC network, and it was designed to meet to lighting grades conditions of KS road lighting standards. The proposed automatic control system were easy monitoring of the power consumption using PC through to the comparison result of the existing streetlight system. As a result, it was confirmed to the possibility of efficient operation for the real-time monitoring and maintenance by induction of reasonable power consumption through to the LED streetlight state checking and remote-control. In addition, we proved to improvement of expected effects for the power cost savings, the energy efficiency, and streetlight differentiation and advanced.

AMR(Automatic Meter Reading)/AMI(Advanced Metering Infrastructure) is actively deployed all over the world. efficient, economical, stable and reliable system need to push forward the AMR/AMI business, so various researchs are in progress. In electric power system of domestic, a transformer is connected average twenty to thirty households and PLC is possible to communication within household connected same transformer. So if server and data concentrator unit(DCU) share circuit line through communication between transformers, communication network is able to efficient. Therefore we design new communication method between DCUs and test it and demonstrate the performance.
