Powerline Communications

What is powerline communications?
Powerine communications (referred to in the industry as PowerLine Communications, or PLC) is a rapidly evolving market that utilizes electricity power lines for the high-speed transmission of data and voice services.


How does powerline communications function?
PLC works by transmitting high frequency data signals through the same power cable network used for carrying electricity power to household users. Such signal cannot pass through a transformer. This requires devices ("outdoor devices") that combine the voice and data signals with the low-voltage supply current in the local transformer stations to bridge the last mile. In the house, "indoor devices" (adapters) are used in order to filter out the voice and data signals and to feed them to the various applications (e.g. PC/Internet, telephone, etc.).


Is powerline communications a new technology?
The technology has roots going back to the 1940s. It has been used by power utilities for simple telemetering and control of electrical equipment in their networks. What is new is the integration of activities outside the building with those inside the building at a much higher bandwidth, 2.5 mbps or higher – this means voice and data transmission via the mains supply voltage network right through to every power socket in the building, as well as in the reverse direction at high speed.


What are PLC advantages?
Availability of an extensive communications infrastructure in place, thus eliminating the need for building of redundant facilities. Only the substation server equipment and customer conditioning/service units need to be installed in order to establish a digital powerline network.


Powerlines carry signals for long distances without requiring regeneration. Their near light speed propagation makes them very powerful for fast delivery of video and audio data. There is no topology limitation for powerlines.


High transmission rate, right now 3 mbps in uploading and downloading. Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd. developed high speed PLC modems, whose data transmission rate is 45 mbps, several times higher than ADSL. The data transmission rate is expected up to 200 mbps in the future by improving the PLC chip.


Permanent on-line connection with the potential for lower charges.


No need for complicated wiring and additional installations. Move your computers and appliances where you want.


Secure data-encryption.


Lower investment costs compared to those envisaged for other broadband data access systems.


Electric companies could offer a broader bundle of services then telecom providers.


What are PLC weaknesses?
Powerline solutions, like phoneline solutions, are unintentional radiators. Emissions can potentially cause interference with radio, television, community antenna television, telephone and DSL services.


Data signal disruption due to noise interference and signal loss over longer distances.


Problems with bypassing transformers.


From a market perspective, powerline networking technology faces potentially serious competition from wireless local area network (WLAN) solutions.


Providers would still need to come up with with a “last mile” solution for hooking up individual subscribers to the neighborhood transformer. That connection could be through cable or phone lines, or wireless.


Powerline's maximum access speed is shared with all users connected to the same local network station. The more people that are simultaneously on the Internet, the lower the speed obtained.

Όχι φίλε Samis83, δε μας κούρασες και είναι πολύ κατατοπιστικά σχετικά με τη νέα τεχνολογία αυτά που μας είπες, αν και οι γνώσεις μου δε μου επιτρέπουν να τα κατανοήσω όλα "πολύ απλά" όπως έλεγες και εσύ... :D

Φίλε samis83 καθόλου δεν μας κούρασες, μια και σε όλους εδώ μέσα, μας αρέσει η τεχνολογία σε όποιο βαθμό και αν την κατανοούμε. Τουλάχιστο το κεντρικό νόημα (τη μη άμεση εμπορική εκμετάλευση) όλοι το κατανόησαν και σε ευχαριστούμε.
Για το θέμα της τεχνολογίας που θα χρησιμοποιήσει η ΔΕΗ πάντως δεν έχω δει κάτι επίσημο (μια και δεν υφίσταται κάποιο site). Ξέρω και εγώ για το δίκτυο οπτικών ινών που στήνει, αλλά δεν ξέρω τίποτα για την τεχνολογία που θα χρησιμοποιήσει προς τον τελικό καταναλωτή. Αν ξέρει κάτι κάποιος ας το αναφέρει, αλλά παρακαλώ εμπεριστατομένα (όχι άκουσα, μου είπαν κλπ.) με κάποια μορφή παραπομπής. :arrow:

Μάλλον κάτι τέτοιο βλέπω και εγώ, αλλά δεν αποκλείω και τα απλά δισύρματα, μια και έχει δικούς της χώρους (για τους μετρητές) σε κάθε πολυκατοικία. Όσο για το umts και mobile που γράφεις, το θεωρώ λίγο δύσκολο μια και θα πρέπει οπωσδήποτε να υπάρχει συνεργασία με εταιρεία κινητής. (ξέρεις τίποτα σχετικό; )

Ασύρματη σταθερή άδεια η ΔΕΗ έχει ήδη. Εγώ ανέφερα ειδικά για UMTS για το οποίο υπάρχουν μόνο τρεις άδειες (οι τρεις εταιρείες κινητήής έχουν από μια). Τώρα, η μεν Stet πήρε την άδεια ασύρματης σταθερής των 25 GHz της Europrom οπότε μπορεί να δώσει υπηρεσίες σταθερής σε μεγάλους πελάτες. Άλλωστε δεν την ενδιαφέρουν ιδιαίτερα οι μικροί πελάτες. Απλά θέλει στους μεγάλους πελάτες να συμπληρώσει την παροχή κινητών υπηρεσιών με σταθερή και internet.
H Quest από την άλλη είναι διαφορετική περίπτωση. Παρά το γεγονός ότι έχει και αυτή άδεια παροχής υπηρεσιών σταθερής και κινητής, επειδή έχει προς το παρόν μικρό κομμάτι αγοράς και είναι δύσκολο (ή μάλλον ακριβό) να αποσπάσει μεγαλύτερο, δεν αποκλείεται αν βρεθεί κάποια μεγάλη τηλ/κή εταιρεία που να ενδιαφέρεται, να ενδώσει σε μια πρόταση εξαγοράς. Έτσι λοιπόν αν η ΔΕΗ θελήσει να συμπληρώσει τις υπηρεσίες της με κινητή δεν αποκλείεται κάποιος "γάμος". Βέβαια αυτά είναι σενάρια, αλλά ποτέ δεν ξέρεις.
