In this paper, we proposed Interference suppression method of between AMI system and EV charging system. IEC12139-1 and HomePlug GreenPhy are using 2-30Mhz frequency band in power line communication. Both method while using the same frequency band, interference occurs in the system of each other. In this paper, we experiment a way to suppress the interference through the channel separation using a Walsh code.

기존 형광램프의 조도 조절이 가능한 조광가변 전자식 안정기의 경우 조광 설정 스위치와 조광가변 전자식 안정기와의 상호 연계 동작을 위해 안정기와 스위치 사이에 전원선 이외에 별도의 통신선로를 포설해야 하고, 이에 따른 비용 증가와 시공상의 어려움이 있다. 이런 단점을 극복하기 위한 방법 중의 하나로 전력선 통신을 사용할 경우 기축 건물에도 보다 쉽게 시공할 수 있으며, 별도의 통신 선로 포설에 의한 비용 부담도 줄일 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 (주)젤라인에서 개발된 ARM9 코어를 내장한 전력선 통신 칩(XPLC30)을 이용하여 기존 조광가변 전자식 안정기에 전력선 통신 기능을 추가하여 조광설정 스위치와 안정기간의 통신이 전력선을 통하여 이루어질 수 있도록 하고, XPLC30의 여분의 프로세싱 능력을 활용하여 기존의 조광가변 전자식 안정기에서 사용하던 조광 제어 칩의 여러 기능을 XPLC30 칩이 대신 할 수 있도록 하는 전력선 기반의 조광 체어 칩의 구현에 대한 연구를 하고자 한다.

In this paper, we propose a method for the efficient power use in power outage. The cost is high and conversion into the other function is difficult since the terminal used in conventional home network system has a dedicated function. This method is based on home network system employed with photovoltaic system. Throughout the modularization of the terminal, the variable function and cost reduction can be achieved. Additionally the unit cost can be reduced by using the power line communication. The prototype of light-control terminal has been implemented. The experimental results with the terminal show the performance of light-control system and the possibility of the commercialization can be achieved.

Recently, as the ship has undergone a development for smart ship or digital ship. PLC is communication system using the preexistence power line and using PLC as transmission medium to monitoring of equipments is an efficient way to design a system for ship. In this paper, we design and implement RFID monitoring system based on PLC for ship. This proposed system can support monitoring the moving of passenger, crew and important cargo by RHO tag data on shipboard.

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. To implement the multiple carrier scheme using a bank of parallel modulators would not be very efficient in analog hardware. Each carrier in an OFDM is a sinusoid with a frequency that is an integer multiple of a base or fundamental sinusoid frequency. Therefore, each carrier is a like a Fourier series component of the composite signal. In fact, it will be shown later that an OFDM signal is created in the frequency domain, and then transformed into the time domain via the Discrete Fourier Transform(DFT).

In the present study, the real-time monitoring system is developed based on the wireless sensor network (WSN) and power line communication (PLC) employed in the 3,000-ton-class training ship. The WSN consists of sensor nodes, router, gateway and middleware. The PLC is composed of power lines, modems, Ethernet gateway and phase-coupler. The basic tests show that the ship has rather good environments for the wired and wireless communications. The developed real-time monitoring system is applied to recognize the thermal environments of main-engine room and one cabin in the ship. The main-engine room has lots of heat sources and needs careful monitoring to satisfy safe operation condition or detect any human errors beforehand. The monitoring is performed in two regions near the turbocharger and cascade tank, considered as heat sources. The cabin on the second deck is selected to monitor the thermal environments because it is close to the heat source of main engine. The monitoring results of the cabin show the thermal environment is varied by the human activity. The real-time monitoring for the thermal environment would be useful for the planning of the ventilation strategy based on the traces of the human activity against inconvenient thermal environments as well as the recognizing the temperature itself in each cabin.

In this paper, to control with light dimming levels of the fluorescent lamps, we have used the power line instead of the signal line to transmit the control signals. To reduce the BER(Bit Error Rate) on the power line communication with the serious noise interferences. We have adapted the FSK(Frequency Shift Keying) modulation and demodulation technique. Since the electronic ballast produced the EMI(ElctroMagnetic Interference) noise in some frequency bands, we have reduced the EMI levels in the band below -50dB. By varying the switching frequency of the ballast for the FL032/T8 from 18kHz to 25kHz, it is possible that the dimming levels are controled with the range of 5∼100%

This study is to solve problems of depletion of RF bandwidth frequency, confusion possibility, security that current wireless communications system have and is to confirm possibility of applying next generation network. To solve problems of current wireless communications system, visible light communications system for power line communications using ATmega16 Microcontroller is was realized and receiver property was analyzed. PLC exclusive chip APLC-485MA, Microcontroller ATmega16, 5pi bulb type LED and high flux LED, visible light receiving sensor LLS08-A1 were used for transmitter and receiver. Performance was analyzed by designed program and an oscilloscope. It was showed average 20% improved receiver rate rather than bulb type LED in the case of high flux LED through voltage change rate on communication distance and LED type of distance between 10 to 50 cm. The blue LED showed the best performance among measured LED types with above 10% of voltage decreasing rate. But As it gradually becomes more distant, the precise date was difficult to obtain due to weak light. To overcome these sort of problems, specific values such as changing conditions and efficiency value relevant to light emitting parts and visible light receiving sensor should be calculated and continuous study and improvements should also be accomplished for the better communications condition.

The current marine communication networks 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. This paper proposes a new bridge based on the DC power line communication technique supported from the NMEA0183 to design inside marine systems.

Broadband power line communications have been receiving tremendous interest In recent years because this technology enables utilities to deploy a communication network over existing power line infrastructures. Despite the enormous potential, there is some skepticism about the technology and its commercial viability. In this paper, we investigate the performance characteristic of PLC through field test carried out in actual households. Also it addresses major field deployment aspects, such as range, coverage, the number of node for operation and maintenance.
