Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、電力供給を行う分電盤等に設置される電源制御装置と分電盤に接続された電力線を介して電力線通信を行う電力線通信装置に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、家庭内などにおいてパーソナルコンピュータ(以下PC)同士又は、PCとプリンタ間等のデータ通信などに設置済みの電力線を使用して通信を行う電力線通信装置が提案されている。この電力線通信装置は、家庭内の電力線に電力線モデム等でデータ信号を変調し、コンセントから電力線を介して他のコンセントから通信を行う対向の電力線モデムがデータ信号を受信する。受信した電力線モデムは信号を復調する。これにより電力線を用いて通信を成立させる。しかしながら、電力線通信には次のような欠点がある。
【0003】
複数のコンセントに接続された種々の電気機器から電力線通信に使用する帯域に対して雑音が出力される。電力線に使われる配線材料が一定でない。さらに、接続トポロジーが複雑になることで特定インピーダンスが変化するため特定インピーダンスの特定が困難になり、電力線通信の信号に悪影響を与える。
【0004】
これらにより電力線通信装置においては、安定かつ確実に電力線通信信号を伝送することが困難であるという問題があった。
【0005】
このように安定かつ確実に電力線通信信号を伝送することが困難な場合、結局、伝送速度を低速にしなければならず、伝送時間が増大する。また信号再送を繰り返さなければならない場合があり、リアルタイムによる信号の伝送が損なわれる。
【0006】
これらの諸問題を解決する為に、過去においてさまざまな方法が提案されている。
【0007】
特開平11−234180号公報では、電力線を介して安定かつ確実に情報信号を伝送することを目的に考案されたものであり、概略は次に示すものである。伝送する情報信号を異なる複数の周波数帯域により送出し、受信側において伝送品質の良い周波数帯域を選択して情報信号を受信するようにするものである。これは電力線の雑音により伝送信号の劣化を予想し、その対応策である。
【0008】
また、特開平11−127092号公報においては、複数台の電力線搬送通信装置に対し、電力線の周波数に特性に合わせて、異なる搬送周波数で通信していても、その異なる周波数同士間の通信を行うことが可能になるようにするものである。
【0009】
これらの従来の提案には次のような問題点がある。
【0010】
▲1▼情報信号を複数の周波数帯域に送出することで、伝送速度の低下を招く恐れがある。さらに周波数帯域を切替えて受信する事で回路規模が大きくなる。
【0011】
▲2▼雑音対策のため異なる搬送周波数で電力線通信を行う。これにより相互通信を実現するには周波数相互変換器を備えなくてはならず、システムが複雑になり、さらにコスト高になる。
【0012】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
従来における電力線通信において、問題点の解決方法は、電力線の本来の目的である電力供給を継続したままで行っていたため、根本的な解決になっていない。
【0013】
本発明は、電力線に接続されている電気機器に影響を与えない範囲内で電力を断することで、電力線上に存在する雑音などの影響を無くし、通信を行うようにしたものである。
【0014】
すなわち、電力線の本来の目的である電力供給を、一時的に断する事で、安定かつ確実に電力線通信信号を伝送することができる電力線通信制御システムを提案しようとするものである。
【0015】
【課題を解決するための手段】

【0022】
各図における構成品は、図面が異なっている場合でも構成品の番号が同一であれば同じ構成品とする。
【0023】
図7のスタート(S701)で動作開始となる。家庭内全体101のコンセント106に接続されたPC本体501、及びプリンタ本体401の間で電力線通信の開始が要求された(S702)。PC本体501は分電盤104内の電力制御装置203の中央演算装置303に電力線通信の開始時間とデータ容量を送信する。この制御はPC本体501からPCIバス503を経由して、デジタルシグナルプロセッサ506に電力線通信の開始時間とデータ容量を送信し、データを変調する。
【0024】
この変調されたデータはアナログフロントエンド507でD/A変換後、ドライバレシーバ部508に送られ、コンセントプラグ509から電力線通信の送信が行なわれる。この送信信号は家庭内の電力線105を介して分電盤104内の電力制御装置203が受信する。電力制御装置203のドライバレシーバ部304、アナログフロントエンド305でA/D変換後、デジタルシグナルプロセッサ306で復調され中央演算装置303が受信する。中央演算装置303は電力線通信の開始時間とデータ容量を受信した旨をPC本体に送信する。この手順は上述と逆の手順である為省略する。(S703)。
【0025】
中央演算装置303は電力線開始時間になった時にスイッチ制御部302に対し、電力制御スイッチ301をOFFする(S704)。この間に、PC本体501とプリンタ本体401は電力線通信を行う(S705)。PC本体501とプリンタ本体401の電力線通信の手順は、上述のPC本体501と電力制御装置203との手順と同様である為、説明は省略する。電力のON−OFFと電力線通信の状態は図6に示している。601の電力供給状態時は電力線通信を停止し603、602の電力供給が瞬断状態では電力線通信を行う604。この動作で電力線通信のデータ伝送が完了した場合はこの動作を終了する(S707)。
【0026】
この後、さらに電力線通信を行う必要がある場合(データ容量が大きく、一回の瞬断ではデータ伝送が出来ない場合)(S706のYES)、再度PC本体501と電力線通信の開始時間とデータ容量を決定し(S708)、スイッチ制御部302により、電力供給スイッチ301で瞬断を発生させ(S709)、電力線通信を開始する(S710)。
【0027】
この瞬断は家庭内全体101の電力線105のコンセントに接続されている電気機器に影響を与えない範囲での瞬断であるため、通常の生活には一切影響はない。
【0028】
これにより、家庭内の電力線通信は他の電気機器に影響を与えない範囲での瞬断中に行われる為、種々の雑音で電力線通信の信号が妨害される事はなく行う事が出来る。
【0029】
【発明の効果】
この発明によれば、電力線通信を行う際に、電力線に接続されている電気機器に影響を与えない範囲で、電力供給を瞬断させることで、電力線の雑音に関係なく、電力線通信を行うことが出来る。これにより、多大な雑音が存在する電力線においても、安定した電力線通信が実現できるという効果がある。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a power supply control device installed on a distribution board or the like that supplies power and a power line communication device that performs power line communication via a power line connected to the distribution board.
[0002]
[Prior art]
2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there has been proposed a power line communication device that performs communication using a power line installed in a home or the like for data communication between personal computers (hereinafter, referred to as PCs) or between a PC and a printer. In this power line communication device, a data signal is modulated on a power line in a home by a power line modem or the like, and an opposite power line modem that performs communication from an outlet to another outlet via the power line receives the data signal. The received power line modem demodulates the signal. Thus, communication is established using the power line. However, power line communication has the following disadvantages.
[0003]
Noise is output from various electric devices connected to a plurality of outlets to a band used for power line communication. Wiring materials used for power lines are not constant. Further, since the specific impedance changes due to the complicated connection topology, it becomes difficult to specify the specific impedance, which adversely affects the power line communication signal.
[0004]
Thus, the power line communication device has a problem that it is difficult to transmit a power line communication signal stably and reliably.
[0005]
When it is difficult to transmit the power line communication signal stably and reliably as described above, the transmission speed must be reduced, and the transmission time increases. Also, signal retransmission may have to be repeated, which impairs real-time signal transmission.
[0006]
Various methods have been proposed in the past to solve these problems.
[0007]
Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. H11-234180 has been devised for the purpose of transmitting an information signal stably and reliably via a power line, and its outline is as follows. An information signal to be transmitted is transmitted in a plurality of different frequency bands, and a receiving side selects a frequency band with good transmission quality to receive the information signal. This is a measure to anticipate deterioration of the transmission signal due to noise on the power line and to cope with it.
[0008]
Also, in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-127092, even if communication is performed with a plurality of power line carrier communication devices at different carrier frequencies in accordance with the characteristics of the power line frequency, communication between the different frequencies is performed. To make it possible.
[0009]
These conventional proposals have the following problems.
[0010]
(1) Transmission of an information signal to a plurality of frequency bands may cause a reduction in transmission speed. Further, the circuit scale is increased by switching the frequency band and receiving.
[0011]
{Circle around (2)} Power line communication is performed at a different carrier frequency for noise suppression. This requires the provision of a frequency translator to achieve intercommunication, which complicates the system and adds cost.
[0012]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the conventional power line communication, a method for solving the problem has not been a fundamental solution because power supply, which is an original purpose of the power line, is performed while being continued.
[0013]
According to the present invention, communication is performed by cutting off power within a range that does not affect electric devices connected to a power line, thereby eliminating the influence of noise or the like existing on the power line.
[0014]
That is, an object of the present invention is to propose a power line communication control system that can stably and surely transmit a power line communication signal by temporarily stopping power supply, which is an original purpose of a power line.
[0015]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention is a power line communication control system having the following configuration.
[0016]
(1) In a power line communication control system including a power control device installed on a distribution board or the like that supplies power and a power line communication device that performs data transmission via a power line connected to the distribution board or the like, The power control device includes a power control unit capable of turning on and off power supply to the power line, and a power line communication start signal receiving unit that receives a power line communication start signal from the power line communication device.

Reference numeral 603 indicates that power line communication is being stopped, and 604 indicates that power line communication is being performed.
[0022]
The components in each drawing are the same components even if the drawings are different, provided that the component numbers are the same.
[0023]
The operation starts at the start (S701) in FIG. The start of power line communication is requested between the PC body 501 and the printer body 401 connected to the outlet 106 of the entire home 101 (S702). The PC body 501 transmits the power line communication start time and the data capacity to the central processing unit 303 of the power control device 203 in the distribution board 104. In this control, the start time of power line communication and the data capacity are transmitted from the PC main body 501 to the digital signal processor 506 via the PCI bus 503 to modulate the data.
[0024]
The modulated data is D / A-converted by the analog front end 507, sent to the driver receiver unit 508, and power line communication is transmitted from the outlet plug 509. This transmission signal is received by the power control device 203 in the distribution board 104 via the home power line 105. After the A / D conversion by the driver receiver unit 304 and the analog front end 305 of the power control unit 203, the signal is demodulated by the digital signal processor 306 and received by the central processing unit 303. The central processing unit 303 transmits to the PC body that the start time of the power line communication and the data capacity have been received. This procedure is the reverse of the above procedure and will not be described. (S703).
[0025]
The central processing unit 303 turns off the power control switch 301 to the switch control unit 302 when the power line start time comes (S704). During this time, the PC body 501 and the printer body 401 perform power line communication (S705). The procedure of the power line communication between the PC main body 501 and the printer main body 401 is the same as the procedure between the PC main body 501 and the power control device 203 described above, and the description is omitted. FIG. 6 shows ON-OFF of power and the state of power line communication. In the power supply state of 601, the power line communication is stopped, and when the power supply of 603 and 602 is momentarily interrupted, the power line communication is performed 604. If the data transmission of the power line communication is completed by this operation, this operation is ended (S707).
[0026]
Thereafter, when it is necessary to perform power line communication further (when the data capacity is large and data transmission cannot be performed by a single momentary interruption) (YES in S706), the start time of power line communication with the PC body 501 and the data capacity again. Is determined (S708), the power supply switch 301 causes an instantaneous interruption by the switch control unit 302 (S709), and power line communication is started (S710).
[0027]
The instantaneous interruption is an instantaneous interruption within a range that does not affect the electrical equipment connected to the outlet of the power line 105 of the entire house 101, and therefore has no effect on normal life.
[0028]
Thus, the power line communication in the home is performed during the instantaneous interruption in a range that does not affect other electric devices, so that the signal of the power line communication can be performed without being disturbed by various noises.
[0029]
【The invention's effect】
According to the present invention, when power line communication is performed, power supply communication is performed irrespective of power line noise by instantaneously interrupting power supply within a range that does not affect electric devices connected to the power line. Can be done. Thus, there is an effect that stable power line communication can be realized even on a power line in which a large amount of noise exists.
