Definitions

  • PLC power line communications
  • G3-PLC allows for the use of a High Priority
  • FIG. 3 is a block diagram of a PLC gateway according to some embodiments.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a power line communication system having overlapping priority contention windows in G3-PLC networks according to some embodiments.
  • Medium voltage (MV) power lines 103 from subnode 101 typically carry voltage in the tens of kilovolts range.
  • Transformer 104 steps the MV power down to low voltage (LV) power on LV lines 105, carrying voltage in the range of 100 - 240 VAC.
  • Transformer 104 is typically designed to operate at very low frequencies in the range of 50-60 Hz.
  • Transformer 104 does not typically allow high frequencies, such as signals greater than 100 KHz, to pass between LV lines 105 and MV lines 103.
  • LV lines 105 feed power to customers via meters 106a-n, which are typically mounted on the outside of residences 102a-n.
  • gateway engine 301 is coupled to meter interface 302, local communication interface 304, and frequency band usage database 304.
  • Meter interface 302 is coupled to meter 106
  • local communication interface 304 is coupled to one or more of a variety of PLC devices such as, for example, PLC device 113.
  • Local communication interface 304 may provide a variety of communication protocols such as, for example, ZigBee, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Wi-Max, Ethernet, etc., which may enable gateway 112 to communicate with a wide variety of different devices and appliances.
  • gateway engine 301 may be configured to collect communications from PLC device 113 and/or other devices, as well as meter 106, and serve as an interface between these various devices and PLC data concentrator 114.
  • Gateway engine 301 may also be configured to allocate frequency bands to specific devices and/or to provide information to such devices that enable them to self-assign their own operating frequencies.
  • the back-off times for both high priority frames and normal priority frames are calculated using Equation 4 above.
  • the back-off exponent, BE HP is limited to a minimum value, minBE, but the back-off exponent, BE NP , may increase to the maximum value, maxBE.
  • minBE can be selected so that the back-off time for high priority frames remains within HPCW interval 707.
  • the back-off time for the normal priority frames may increase to region
