  • 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.

  • This paper reviews calculating of induced voltage onto a communication line from 22.9kV-Y Distribution Lines. The coexistence of both power line and communication line in parallel generates the induction of significant longitudinal voltage in the weak current line. In order to evaluate a precise induced voltage, this paper indicated some problems about coefficient and numerical formula. It also presents some induced voltage production technology standard application.

  • Recently, standard of living improved and Information-Communication industry developed rapidly. Thereby, interest about electric power quality is rising worldwide. So, research and Development to enhance electric power quality in various viewpoint until most suitable supply system from each kind device to improve electric power quality. And specially, interest about voltage quality is rising by diffusion increase of information communication appliance and minuteness control appliance etc. Also Power consumption is increasing, but expansion of large size generator by environmental and site security problem is difficult. So, introduction of distribution generation is investigated actively by electric-power industry reorganization. Voltage management of power system had been controlled by ULTC (Under Load Tap Changer) in substation and pole transformer on the high voltage distribution line. But, voltage control device on substation and distribution line is applied each other separatively. Therefore, efficiency of line voltage control equipment is dropping. Also, research about introduction upper limit of distribution generation is consisting continuously. This paper presents cooperation use way between voltage control device and introduction upper limit of distribution generation for most suitable voltage control in distribution power system.

  • In this paper, we propose the implementation and performance analysis of power line communication based on SISO/MIMO-OFDM which focuses on high speed data transmission in smart grid and future power line grid. We employ Zimmermann frequency model and Middleton Class A model as the multipath power line fading channel and impulse noise channel, respectively. In this paper, in order to improve the three-phase or single-phase PLC performance, we introduce a new MRC (called a&f-MRC) which effectively sums up multiple antenna diversity gain and multipath fading diversity gain. Via simulation, we prove the performance advantage over existing SISO/MIMO systems. In addition, we offer the tradeoff on system design through comparing with MRC, EGC and SC.

  • Modeling busbar distribution system as a transmission line is an important subject of power line communication in the smart grid concept. This requires extraction of busbar RLGC parameters, accurately. In this study, a comparison is made between conventional and modified method for the aspect of optimum RLGC parameters extraction in the 1 MHz to 50 MHz frequency band. The usefulness of these methods is shown both in time and frequency-domain analysis. The frequency-domain analyzes show that the inherent power of modified method can eliminate the errors especially due to the discontinuities arise in conventional method. This makes the modeling approach of modified method more advantageous for the busbars due to its robustness against disturbances in the S-parameters measurements which cannot be eliminated with the calibration procedure. On the other hand, time-domain simulations show that the transmission line representation of the modified method is closer to physical reality by handling causality issues.

  • In this paper, we developed a new method to transmit multiple visible light channels in time division mode using the AC power line frequency in order to prevent the crosstalk between adjacent optical signals. Synchronizing pulses are generated from the 220 V power line, and one pulse period is subdivided into several time slots for visible light channels. Each channel transmits data in a predefined time slot without interfering adjacent channels. In experiments, synchronizing pulses with a repetition rate of 240 Hz were generated from the 60 Hz power line, and three VLC channels with a bit rate of 9.6 kbps transmitted data independently using the time slots between synchronizing pulses. This configuration is very useful in constructing time division VLC networks for multiple sensors.

  • This paper presents a methodology and a model that can analyze the high frequency transfer characteristics from socket in the AC power port to the 5 V DC output port in the mobile charging circuit. This is to predict the output signals coming from the IEC(International Electrotechnical Commission) Standard(IEC 61000-4-4), EFT/B(Electric Fast Transient and Burst) immunity test for mobile charging circuit. Since the mobile charging circuit is energized from the AC power socket from the power line, it is necessary to know the high frequency transfer characteristics with activated AC power line. A simple CDN(Coupling-Decoupling Network) is designed and manufactured for measuring S-parameters of mobile charging circuit with and without AC power line activated. The result shows that the S-parameters of the specific mobile charging circuits are almost the same, independent of AC power line activation. Consequently, the S-parameters without AC line could be used to predict the output response to the EFT/B signals, and it was shown that the proposed methodology predicts the output responses quite accurately, which proves the validness of the methodology presented in this paper.

  • The current flowing through the overhead transmission lines causes induced voltage on the communication lines, which can be prevented by calculating the induced voltage at the planning stage for overhead transmission line installment through an agreement between the communication and electric power companies. The procedures to calculate the induced voltages, however, are complicated due to the variety of parameters and tower types of the overhead transmission lines. The difficulty necessitates the development of a simulator to measure the induced voltage on the communication lines. This paper presents two simulators developed for this purpose; one using the Data Base (DB) index method and the other using the Graphic User Interface (GUI) method. The simulators described in this paper have been implemented by the EMTP (Electromagnetic Transient Program).
