“…However, Common-Mode (CM) current arises due to line imbalance [ 82 , 83 , 84 , 85 ] producing undesired EMR. As a result, PLC modems must comply with Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations that limit their EMR [ 25 , 86 , 87 , 88 , 89 ]. Several works report experiments on the EMR resulting from PLC signals [ 51 , 82 , 83 , 84 , 85 , 90 , 91 ].…”

“…Since the electrical wiring is not in principle intended for data transfer, the bandwidth for the positioning signals presents severe restrictions. Both the IBTO and IBTB PLPS must comply with Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations [ 25 , 86 , 87 , 88 , 89 ] that limit the electromagnetic emissions, as any other equipment. PLC modems are designed to effectively use the wiring for communications and to comply with EMC regulations and thus appear as an adequate means for providing the PLPS infrastructure for IBTO and IBTB PLPS.…”

Power line infrastructure is available almost everywhere. Positioning systems aim to estimate where a device or target is. Consequently, there may be an opportunity to use power lines for positioning purposes. This survey article reports the different efforts, working principles, and possibilities for implementing positioning systems relying on power line infrastructure for Power Line Positioning Systems (PLPS). Since Power Line Communication (PLC) systems of different characteristics have been deployed to provide communication services using the existing mains, we also address how PLC systems may be employed to build positioning systems. Although some efforts exist, PLPS are still prospective and thus open to research and development, and we try to indicate the possible directions and potential applications for PLPS.

“…The time variance of a power line and its impact on communication is further described in [46][47][48][49][50][51]. PLC devices during their operation also radiate into nearby areas, so the device itself has to meet current EMC (Electromagnetic compatibility) regulation limits [52].…”

Simulation-Based Evaluation of the Performance of Broadband over Power Lines with Multiple Repeaters in Linear Topology of Distribution Substations

et al. 2020

Broadband over Power Lines (BPL) is considered a promising communication technology in the concept of Smart Grids. This paper evaluates networks based on BPL, with a focus on the impact of repeaters in the linear topology of distribution substations. In large-scale Smart Grids network planning, positions of repeaters have to be carefully chosen. This article should help to determine such positions and limitations of BPL linear topology networks. Laboratory and on-field measurements and their results are presented in this article. Results show the impact of repeater’s deployment for different testing methodologies also with regard to other already presented studies. Measured values and the determined impacts of repeaters are later used as input data for simulation of the linear BPL topology in terms of network throughput with multiple streams and bottlenecks. These occur especially on lines shared by multiple communicating nodes. Furthermore, the simulation investigates the balancing time of multiple data streams throughput. The simulation shows that the throughput balancing can occupy a significant time slot, up to tens of seconds before the throughput of different streams balances. Also, the more data is generated, the more time the balancing time takes. Additionally, the throughput drop caused by a repeater is determined into the range of 35–60%. Based on the measurement and simulation results, lessons learned are presented, and possible performance improvements are discussed.

“…Because of the numerous branches, this link exhibits a high attenuation, especially in the region over 10 MHz. However, a high attenuation cannot be compensated by the signal power enhancement for reasons of the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), [8][9]. Therefore, the frequency domain of the RC4 reference channel will be practically utilizable up to 10 MHz without serious problems at the information signal transmission.…”

For the expansion of in-home PLC networks, it is necessary to have a detailed knowledge of the PLC transmission channel properties. This contribution shortly discusses theoretical characteristics of the RC4 reference channel. A main part is focused on the network throughput and on the interphase PLC signal liaising presented in the RC4 reference channel for higher frequencies than 10 MHz. For evaluation of considered transmission parameters, experimental measurements related to various noise sources and to interactions between different phase conductors are realized in the real in-home PLC network.
