Detecting the zero-crossing message to achieve low bit transmission over H-bridge inverter

Home automation and smart grid development is motivated by many advantageous situations that include the demands on renewable energy and the advantages provided by power line communications technology (PLC). The integration of solar energy into conventional grid implies the control of different modules included in the system. Remote control seems to be the control mode by excellence, in which communication is the main point to focus on. The pulse width modulation (PWM) scheme used to control the inverter is also used to modulate the zero-crossing point of the output sine wave of the inverter, to transfer data. The zero-crossing modulation technique is proposed and basic elements to construct the model are proposed. Simulated constellations of the received signal are presented.
