Measurement and Analysis of the Low-Voltage Power Line Narrowband Carrier Channel Attenuation

Abstract:

When the low-voltage power line is used as a communication line, the channel characteristics have an important impact on the communication quality. In this paper, power distribution networks are divided into three categories. The paper selects a typical power distribution area and uses a rigorous method to test channel attenuation characteristics of the narrowband (50 kHz~500 kHz) carrier. Base on the measurement data, carrier attenuation characteristics are summarized. The measuring method used in the paper and the conclusions of this paper would play a guiding role on the research of the power line carrier communication.
