Design and Performance Analysis Of the Modem for the Adapitive communication in the power line

전력선 통신에 적합한 모뎀의 설계 및 성능평가

In recent years, data transmission using power lines has been much highlighted. Power line is known to be cost-effective communication medium because the entire cable infrastructure has been already established and it is entirely connected with any home. Recently, the target of researches is to communicate data reliably over power lines at the speed of at least 1Mbits/s over the frequency range from 1MHz to 10MHz. OFDM communication system has been used for the high speed data transmission. Next, the conventional and adaptive OFDM systems for high speed data transmission over power line channel are investigated. The performance of AOFDM(adaptive OFDM) over the frequency selective channel with impulsive and narrow-band noise are studied to be a nice solution for high speed data transmission over power lines. The simulation results show that data the rates of the AOFDM are improved about 47% more than the ones of the conventional OFDM over the frequency response of case 4. In the results, the data rate has been much improved by the proposed adaptive algorithm in the frequency selective channel.
