Power line communication technology transmits data and media via power lines as communication signals. This technology carries electrical information on high-frequency loads, then separates the information adapter from the high-frequency current through wired transmission to deliver it to computers or telephones, thereby achieving information transfer.
Power communication networks ensure the safe and stable operation of power systems. Together with power system security and stability control systems, the dispatch automation system forms the three pillars of secure and stable power system operation. It also serves as the foundation for grid dispatch automation, network operation, and modernized management in a market-oriented environment; it is a crucial means of ensuring the safe, stable, and economical operation of the power grid; and it constitutes one of the vital infrastructure power supply systems. Due to the reliability of power communication networks, the protection and control of communication information transmission, and the stringent requirements for speed and accuracy, coupled with the power sector's unique resource advantages in communication development,
power line communication, as one of the key technologies for smart grids, is playing an increasingly important role. Smart grids demand intelligent automation control systems. The economic efficiency and safety of power transmission have become paramount. This has shifted smart grids from manual equipment control to system-oriented automated control. Power communication serves as the critical link connecting various modules within the smart grid system. Only an efficient, intelligent automated communication system can support the normal operation of the smart grid system.
Traditional Power Line Carrier (PLC) communication utilizes high-voltage transmission lines as high-frequency signal channels. However, it is limited to transmitting voice and remote control signals, suffering from narrow application scope and low transmission rates, failing to meet user demands for broadband network development. PLC is evolving toward high-capacity, high-speed capabilities while integrating with low-voltage distribution networks to enable residential users to access services like power line telephony and internet.
