In this paper, we proposed a MAC protocol which can be used in power line communications(PLC). In the power line communication network, the data signal cannot travel long distance because of a serious attenuation. Consequently, we need to have a number of repeaters (amplifiers) in order to recover the signal power, which causes flooding problem in the network The proposed MAC protocol uses polling concept and solves the flooding problem in the power line communication network. The proposed protocol can be applied to power line communication networks for automatic power distribution control system. A mathematical analysis has been carried out to estimate the performance of the proposed protocol.

Hidden station problem can occur in power-line communication (PLC) networks. A simple solution to the problem has been proposed to use request-to-send (RTS)/clear-to-send (CTS) exchange, but this approach cannot solve the hidden station problem perfectly. This paper revisits the problem for PLC networks and designs a protocol to solve it. We first analyze the throughput performance degradation when the hidden station problem occurs in PLC networks. Then, we propose an interferer aware multiple access (IAMA) protocol to enhance throughput and fairness performances, which uses unique characteristics of PLC networks. Using the RTS/CTS exchange adaptively, the IAMA protocol protects receiving stations from being interfered with neighboring networks. Through extensive simulations, we show that our proposed protocol outperforms conventional random access protocols in terms of throughput and fairness.

In order to enhance standardization and interoperability of local level systems, AHU control network was designed with basement(8 point) and basis story(15 point) and then the network was constructed by power line communication. Each devices of AHU system were programed with neuron C of $L_{ON}W_{ORKS}$ as an open protocol. As a result of a study, each devices of the network were controlled with self dispersion process by $L_{ON}W_{ORKS}$ protocol and wiring could be reduced by power line communication.

The electrical curtain is an electronic product which is most suitable for the sphere of intelligent home network. It provides the basic feature of intelligent home network such as the followings; various functions, powerful control. It also becomes the ideal technology with inexpensive power-line protocol, energy saving and solar power generation. Generally it is a suitable motor for BLDC to move the electrical curtain, because it provides the maintenance without difficulty, long-lived use with good efficiency. On this paper, we proposed the BLDC motor controller designed by CDM(Coefficient Diagram Method) and evaluated its performance with a simulation of the plant, designed the electrical curtain using BLDC motor and powe-line protocol.

This paper describes design and implementation of home network control protocol for networked home appliances. The proposed network protocol has four-layered protocol structure and device-modem interface structure for the flexibility of modems based on power line communication. The standard message set is specified to guarantee the interoperability between various home appliances The proposed protocol can be easily implemented because it has minimum network overhead.

We propose here sequential 2 methods for obtain information of current or potential data for power transmission line. One is a digital data transmission unit, this is, an output of a current sensor of power transmission line is digitalized by use of an easy asynchronous protocol. The unit has high speed transform rate, easy making header caused of consisting of only logic circuit. The other is, the output of the unit is transformed via LAN interface and displayed on a personal computer. We have confirmed remote measuring using the method for 100A and 240 A of the current information of power transmission line. Therefore we will be able to see a current waveform by use of internet at a cheep c...

The current marine internal communication systems 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. However, general vessel communication method have a weak point that must establish the extra private line. But, the power line communication has advantage over general vessel communication method as it uses AC220V/DC24V without changing line. Therefore, we will propose a new bridge based on the DC-PLC(power Line communication) technique which support the NMEA0183 protocol inside vessel network systems.

A lighting control switch, extended to incorporate a power line communication technology, is developed. The system uses not an exclusive microprocessor but a general one, and developed PPM protocol. The coupling circuit is a type of an isolation LC filter, and the impedance of the circuit was designed as low as possible to extend signal transmission distance. The frequency of the carrier, considering the data length and signal attenuation as the length of power lines, was set at 250 kHz. Tests on a prototype in an indoor power lines have shown that the switch has a stable operation with the distance of power lines
