PLC system for Smart Metering
Bijotová, Kateřina ; Sláčik, Ján (referee) ; Mlýnek, Petr (advisor)
This thesis deals with PLC communication, presents pros and cons of this technology. The thesis describes several basic standards of the narrowband communication and broadband HomePlug AV2 standard. It groups the technology according to frequency band. Also, it brings summary of commercial products and development kits which are using PLC technology. The thesis contains the description of network testing to RFC 2544 recommendation and its application onto narrowband Linksys PLEK500 modems using NetBlazer tester which took place in laboratory of Brno University of Technology’s Department of Telecommunications. The same PLC modems are used in a second series of experimental measurements in home environment. This thesis also deals with comparison of narrowband PLC standards PRIME and G3 whilst exposed to different transmission conditions as defined by pre-established measurement scenarios. Said comparison was attained by measurements using Atmel’s multi-carrier PLC kit SAM4CP16C-EK. In the closing section of the thesis the results obtained by said measurements are consulted with conclusions provided by contemporary PLC-oriented publications.

Narrowband PLC communication for Smart Metering
Kubů, Jiří ; Blažek, Petr (referee) ; Mlýnek, Petr (advisor)
This bachelor project is about narrowband PLC communications. The work describes the basic principle, division of PLC communication, history, technology, utilized communication standards and interference affecting the data communication technology. In this work we also performed experimental measurements in real environments with modems from Texas Instruments C2000 and C2000 TMDSPLCKITV4 PLC PLC TMDSPLCKIT-V3. The results of the measurements are real transmission rate. Moreover application was created for remote data collection along with PLC modems C2000 PLC TMDSPLCKIT-V3, the aime was to edit PLC modem firmware and create applications for receiving data from the terminal.

High Data Rate Narrowband PLC Communication based on OFDM
Csiba, Patrik ; Herencsár, Norbert (referee) ; Mlýnek, Petr (advisor)
This bachelor project is about narrowband PLC communication. In this project is described history, principle of narrowband communication and description of four available narrowband standards (PRIME, G3-PLC, G.hnem, IEEE P1901.2) with their comparisons. In the next part are described the experimental measurements, that are performed in home environment with use of the TMDSPLCKIT modems from the Texas Instruments company, MT39-L1-ver.R modems from the ModemTec company and EVALKITST7580-1 modems from the STMicroelectronics company.

Power Line Communication for Home Automation Applications
Hromádka, Michal ; Štohl, Radek (referee) ; Fiedler, Petr (advisor)
This thesis describes the design of a modem for a communication over residential power lines. First part is focused on the history, suitable frequency bands, modulation techniques and mainly on the selection of the optimal modem device. Second section contains the description of the hardware design of the modem itself and clarifies the implementation of the PLC module to be used as a communication interface for a full residential automation solution. Last chapters of this thesis introduce the communication protocol, design of the software for the ATmega32 MCU and present of the final field testing under real conditions.
