MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF SPEED DATA TRANSMISSION FROM SEGMENT LENGTH OF SPECIALIZED G3-PLC DIGITAL NETWORK

Abstract

Power Line Communication (PLC) systems are actively evolving and becoming more and more widespread worldwide. They are used in the automation of technological processes, the organization of video surveillance systems and to control the "smart" home. The G3-PLC provides high-speed and high-reliability long-distance communication over the existing power grid. Due to the fact that G3-PLC provides the ability to transmit data including through transformers, infrastructure costs are reduced. In addition, the G3-PLC network can support IPv6, which will allow the G3-PLC to easily integrate into common IPv6-based communication lines in the future. G3-PLC-based bilateral communications networks can provide grid operators with intelligent monitoring and control capabilities. Operators will be able to monitor electricity consumption across the network in real time, apply variable tariff schedules and set limits on electricity consumption. In turn, consumers will be able to control electricity consumption in real time. By using variable tariffs, users can reduce their electricity consumption during peak use. The G3-PLC dedicated digital network can be used in process automation systems where traditional or traditional data transmission is difficult or impossible. As a result of the research, a polynomial mathematical model was found that best reflects the change in data rate depending on the length of the G3-PLC network segment. It is also found that for the simplified calculation, a linear model determined during the studies can be used. The established mathematical models of data transmission rate dependence on the segment length of the G3-PLC dedicated digital network will contribute to better design of G3-PLC-based networks.
