dc.descriptionPower utility companies have suffered revenue losses due to uncollected bills and energy tampering for many years. The use of remote monitoring system to overcome the problem using powerline communication has been identified as a solution. This needs transceiver capable of communicating data through powerline channel. In this paper we present simulated results of BPSK (DSSS) transceiver for energy metering based on powerline channel as media for communication. The choice of spread spectrum BPSK modulation scheme is based on its robustness and its ability to spread signal into wide band to protect jamming and interference. The performance of the designed transceiver and selection of suitable parameter is verified using matlab simulation.
