Abstract :
Development of 200 Mbps PLC (power line communications) modems is described and field test results are reported. The modems modulated with OFDM technology are fabricated, and tested in laboratories to evaluate their performance and the influence on other equipment. They are installed in medium voltage (MV) power lines and low voltage (LV) power distribution lines, and the performance as a communication system is tested and verified.
