Abstract
Description
The communications in urban areas have been
researched for a long time and a number of solutions are
available ranging from wire line to wireless technologies.
However, the communications towards non-urban and
lowly populated areas in some of the developing countries
still is a problem. Different technologies have been
proposed but still facing a problem because of few end
users. This paper is proposing the use of PLC network and
interconnects with wireless technologies at primary
substation where enough traffic will be realized to be
another alternative. The contribution has analyzed the
communication through powerline network from customer
premises with two regenerative repeaters and CSMA/CD
MAC protocol to distribution transformer. The
modulation used is direct sequence spread spectrum with
binary phase shift keying. The coding is Bose Chaudhuri
Hacknguem (BCH). From distribution transformer to
primary router at primary substation contentionless MAC
protocol of token bus is used. The wireless networks have
been connected to PLC at primary router. Simulation
results are presented.
