This paper deals with new scheme of remote load control management system with communication from RCU to controller using power line Power line communication is useful for economical data link but various problems and limitations are caused in using power lines for communications channel. A power line is not so good in the commercial electrical power, and its load noise and high frequency noise are so much. To decrease these noise, we used the FSK(Frequency Shift Keying) modulation method. The experimental results show that the proposed system in this paper is compatible with the conventional system with low cost and the feasibility is very high for new or remodeling plant.

Recently, a study on the Power Line Communication has been done by many companies and institutes due to its own merits that we can use the power line as a communication channel. But, there are serious problems about the harsh and unpredictable characteristics - noise, signal distortion and attenuation to be overcome in order that we commercialize the Power Line Communication. In this paper, we analyse the power line characteristics and apply the technology of PLC to control power of electric machinery by using ASK modulation.

In low-power VLSI systems, it is effective to suppress leakage current by shutting down megablocks in idle states. Recently, multi-threshold voltage CMOS (MTCMOS) is widely accepted to shutdown power supply. However, it requires short wake-up time as operating frequency increases. This causes large current surge during wake-up process, and it often leads to system malfunction due to severe Power line noise. In this paper, a novel wake-up scheme is proposed to solve this problem. It exploits pipelined wake-up strategy in several stages that reduces maximum current on the power line and its corresponding power line noise. To evaluate its efficiency, the proposed scheme was applied to a multiplier block in the Compact Flash memory controller chip. Power line noise in shutdown and wake-up process was simulated and analyzed. From the simulation results, the proposed scheme was proven to greatly reduce the power line noise compared with conventional schemes.

This paper investigates impulsive noise from a pole transformer in low voltage distribution system for power line communication. EMI noise from the pole transformer is indicated from the experiment. The noise has certain characteristics because it is caused by partial discharge. The noise level is above -35dBm without a filter. Therefore, the filter which is made of ferrite is used in order to eliminate the noise. the noise filters should be applied to both the phase line and the neutral line. Otherwise, It is likely to have little overall impact on elimination of noises. the performance of filter is verified with various experiments. In conclusion, the equivalent circuit of power line communication including noise source is described as a lumped circuit.

One of the major problems for accurate channel estimation in power line communication systems is impulsive noise. Traditional channel estimation algorithms are based on the assumption of Gaussian noise, or the need to locate the positions of impulsive noise. The algorithms may lose optimality when impulsive noise exists in the channel, or if the location estimation of impulsive noise is inaccurate. In the present paper, an effective channel estimation algorithm based on a robust cost function is proposed to mitigate impulsive noise. The proposed method can provide a closed-form solution, and the application of robust estimation theory enables the proposed method to be free from localization of impulsive noise and thus can guarantee that the proposed method has better performance. Simulations verified the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we have analyzed the change characteristics of induced noise due to the impedance change of the ground in both ends of telecommunication line. As what affects the induced noise, there are power influence or longitudinal transverse voltages and its weighted filtered voltage. In the result of measurement, we can see the noise level change due to the change of the ground impedance, that is, as the ground impedance at either end of the telecommunication line become grower, the noise level is increased, and as the ground impedance at either end of the telecommunication line become smaller, the noise level is decreased. However, we can't define the relation between ground impedance size and PIF in these measurement results, so we will have to carry out the measurement more deeply and more practically with various conditions in environmental viewpoint and/or experimental viewpoint to establish the definition between ground impedance size and PIF.

Localized communication networks for office automation, security monitoring, environmental management of buildings, computer communications, and other applications enjoy every increasing demand. This paper proposes a direct sequence spread spectrum communication system for use in power line data transmission. Advantages of power distribution circuits include reasonably universal coverage and easy access vis a standard wall plug. Disadvantages include limited communication bandwidth, relatively high noise levels, and varying levels of impedance, noise, and attenuation. Spread spectrum signalling provides immunity to narrow-band signal impairments and multiplexing capability. Our prototype power line communication module supports completely physical and data link layers based on the international standard ISO 10368 for reliable high-speed power line communication system. Moreover it provides useful functions to compose a plant monitoring and control system. All the circuits of the communication module are included in one compact circuit. Thus a functional communication system for the power line plant monitoring and control is implemented.

A novel technique for minimization of simultaneous switching noise is Presented. Dual Layer Power Line (DLPL) structure i:; newly proposed for a possible silicon realization of a mutual inductor, with which an instant large current in the power line is half-divided flowing through two different, but closely coupled, layers in opposite directions. This mutual inductance between two power layers enables us to significantly reduce the switching noise. SPICE simulations show that with a mutual coupling coefficient higher than 0.8, the switching noise reduces by 63% compared to the previously reported solutions. This DLPL technique can also be applied to PCB artworks.

This paper shows the initial results of a study applying deep learning technology in power line communication. In this paper, we propose a system that effectively removes noise by applying a deep learning technique to eliminate noise, which is a cause of reduced power line communication performance, by adding a deep learning model at the receive part. To train the deep learning model, it is necessary to store the data. Therefore, it is assumed that the existing data is stored, and the proposed system is simulated. we compare the theoretical result of the additive white Gaussian noise channel with the bit error rate and confirm that the proposed system model improves the communication performance by removing the noise.
