外文资料翻译 PLC Studies in China as a Contribution to the Development of International StandardsAbstractIn the field of PLC, the standardization process on international level is progressing very slowly. The EMC Laboratory of the North China Electric Power University has received the task to develop a measurement method for the field radiated by PLC installations and a standard to be used in the future for the regulation of the PLC deployment. After a short introduction of the standardization process at international level, the paper presents measurements performed at the North China Electric Power University of radiated fields due to PLC. Comparisons of the field with various limits are shown. Finally the paper also presents a review of the regulatory situation on international level.Keywords: PLC, standardization, electromagnetic disturbances.1. IntroductionIn the last 6 to 7 years, feasibility studies have been performed in various countries to check the possibility of using the low voltage distribution network to provide data transmission and eventually also telephonic links to individual customers at frequencies up to 30 MHz. This new technology is called Power Line Communication (PLC). This application is particularly interesting for power utilities which, on one side can enter in this way the telecommunication market and use their network for power network data transmission, on the other side can use this technology to control their own network. However, this transmission mode in the frequency band extending from 1.6 to 30 MHz presents various and quite complex EMC problems. The main problem isproduction of disturbances in the network and in the environment.2. Disturbance sourcesThe sources of disturbance are both radiated and conducted:- the emission of electromagnetic noise which can interfere with radio communications for safety or military use, or disturb the radio amateurs；- conducted differential and common mode currents can penetrate in any equipment connected to the network in which PLC is working. The disturbances have two types of origins:- the signal source asymmetry, due to the coupler asymmetry；- the unbalance of the Low Voltage Distribution Network (LVDN) and as a result an common mode to differential mode conversion.The conversion from differential to common mode due to the networkunbalance has been analysed in various paper, as for instance in 1. Different mitigation solutions have been also been proposed in the literature , but the research work must be further continued. 3. Standardization at international levelConcerning EMC problems, at an international level, two types of standards must be developed:- a product standard；- a network standard.3.1 The product standardThe product standard should be an amendment of the CISPR22 standard and is the task of the Subcommittee CISPR. A first idea was to extend the concept of Longitudinal Conversion Loss (LCL) specific for symmetric telecommunication pairs of wire to the non symmetric power network.Measurements performed in various power networks, as those shown in Fig. 1, have given a large spread of LCL values .It was not possible to arrive to a consensus for the concept based on the LCL value, to be used for the calculation of a voltage limit at the ports of the equipment connected to the network, although that this concept has been well-established for the case of telecommunication lines. After about 4 years of work and a whole series of documents at CD (Committee Draft) stage, the concept did not find the requested qualified majority for approval by the CISPR/I/ although that it found majority approval within the working group. It was decided to re-start the work evaluating a new basis. A New Work Item Proposal (NWIP) was prepared by the French national Committee and approved in April 2005 6. The work will not be focused any more on the LCL value, but will try to: - describe the typical electricity installations where it is intended to connect PLC equipment；- identify the potentially disturbed services/equipment for each typical section of electricity installations described above；- assess the level of protection currently provided by the CISPR22for each equipment/service；- set radiated and conducted limits for emissions of each typical section of electricity installation when PLC is operating.The work started in June 2005 and is currently in progress.3.2 Network standardThe European Commission has issued in 2001 the Mandate 313 which gives CENELEC and ETSI the task to develop a standard, to define emission limits for all communication networks including PLC.Different limits have been proposed by various countries (Germany, UK, Norway) and entities (CENELEC, FCC, BBC). The differences between the various proposals were quite large and it was not possible to reach a consensus. A Joint Working Group ETSI/CENELEC has produced several drafts, which have all failed to be approved by the National Committees.4. PLC activity at the North China Electric Power University 4.1 Mandate given to the EMC LaboratoryIn China, the Telecommunication Center of the China National Power Grid is supervising the PLC deployment over the whole country as a provider of service, but not as a regulatory authority. The Telecommunication Center has given to the EMC Laboratory of the North China Electric Power University the mandate to develop:- a measurement method for the field；- a standard which should be used in the future as a basis for the regulation of the PLC deployment. These studies are a contribution, together with other research activities in Europe like the European Project OPERA, to the development of international standards.4.2 Experimental measurementsIn order to simulate the PLC operation environment, an experimental network was set up. Its structure is presented in Fig. 2. As seen in Fig.2, the field was measured with a loop antenna which gives the magnetic field value. The conversion to electric field was performed by multiplying the measured values by the vacuum impedance (377 ohms). It is clear that in near fields, the value of the vacuum impedance is higher than 377 ohms and a better approach to convert magnetic to electric fields in such configurations is under study.As a pair of PLC modems with rate of 200Mbps being used to download data from internet, the radiated field was also measured and shown in Fig.4. The radiation field was above all of the three limits. The dimensions of the room were 9.456.8m. Three power distribution branches have been installed in the test. The first branch supplied three daylight lamps； the second branch a high-powered air conditioning； the third one five household electric appliances, including a refrigerator, a computer, a microwave oven, a washer, and a TV set each of it at distances of 10 meters. PLC signals were coupled at the outlet of the energy meter. A loop antenna was placed 3 meters away from the power line.A PLC router and PLC modems composed of the LAN at nominal rates of 14Mbps, 45Mbps and 200Mbps to simulate the PLC internet access have been used. An example of the radiated electric field measured in the room is presented in Fig.3.When using the PLC modems, besides shutting them down and transferring data with the internet at relatively high rate, there is another possible state: standby. In this state, the PLC modem is powered on, but it isnt used to transfer data by the customer. The radiated field of a pair of PLC modems with a rate of 45Mbps in standby state was also measured and shown in Fig.5. Compared with the background, it appears that the radiation of the PLC network is significant when the PLC modem is in standby especially from 18MHz to 23MHz.Fig.6 shows the measured radiation fields with different load conditions. The dotted line presents the condition when all household electric appliances were on, and the solid line presents the “off” condition. Fig.6 shows that the radiation fields did notvary significantly when the household electric appliances were “on” and “off”.Another interesting item investigated at the North China Electric Power University EMC Laboratory was the relation between the injected current and the radiation field strength. Generally, if this relation is known and it if is stable enough, then we can assess the emission level to some extent by measuring the injected current. Therefore, the injected current was measured in parallel with the field. Fig.7 shows the relation between the injected current and the radiation field in the frequency domain for the 45Mbps network. A rather good correlation was found except for frequencies in the range of about 16 to 24 MHz. The quantitative transfer relation for a typical network structure is still under investigation.5. Regulatory approaches for access networks in Europe and USA5.1 European Union regulationThe Communication Committee (COCOM) of the European Commission (EC) has delivered a positive message on the Draft Recommendation on Broadband Communications from 6 April 2005. This recommendation is very similar to the “Report and Order” published by the FCC on October 14, 2004. The main features of this recommendation are:- It requires that Regulatory Authorities should not follow the ex-ante approach for PLC deployment and operation. That means that PLC equipment should have easy market access and that an authorization is only required in case of harmful interference within a specific location at a specific frequency；- the PLC equipment is regarded as a telecommunication equipment and as a consequence should follow the CE certification；- it requires that PLC systems should be installed and operated according to good engineering principles；- it recognizes the right of countries to take special restriction measures if necessary, for instance frequency restrictions in specific areas (military, coast where ship navigation can be affected), or fir frequencies of specific use (fire alarm).Misunderstandings by EU member states are minimized by the recommended permanent dialogue towards the EC.5.2 USA regulationAs an amendment to Part 15 of its rules, the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) has published on 14 October 2004 the “Report and Order”, which defines the BPL (Broadband Power Lines, name of PLC in US) regulation for Access PLC.Access BPL systems will operate on an unlicensed non-interference basis under Part 15 model. This means that the permitted limits are those defined by FCC Part 15, i.e.62 dBV/m (see Fig. 3) and that the FCC will ask for a decrease of these limits or mitigation measures only in case ofInterference. In addition, in order to achieve this goal the “Report and Order” specifies that the FCC: - can decide that BPL must avoid specific frequencies and can decide to shut down any unit in the case of harmful interference；- establishes “exclusion zones” in locations close to sensitive operations, such as coast guard or radio astronomy stations, within BPL must avoid operating on certain frequencies；- establishes consultation requirements with public safety agencies, federal government sensitive stations and aeronautical stations；- establishes a publicly available Access BPL notification database to facilitate an organized approach to identification and resolution of harmful interference；- changes the equipment authorization for Access BPL systems fromverification to certification； - improves measurement procedures for all equipment that use RF energy to communicate over power lines.6. ConclusionThe Power Line Communication represents a very promising technique,permitting to extend internet, voice phone and digital TV everywhere where exists a Low Voltage Distribution Network. However, a few EMC problems should still be solved, in order to avoid disturbances.On international level, the standardization work is progressing very slowly, due to many divergent approaches and lack of some technical solutions. The measurements performed in the experimental network of the EMC.Laboratory of the North China Electric Power University, show that the radiated fields are related with the work state and the transfer rate of the PLC modems. Especially for the higher rate, the radiated fields are beyond limits of NB30, ITU K60 and even FCC Part15. The research work performed in this university, together with studies taking place in other universities in the world, will contribute to a better understanding of the behavior of the reducing the disturbances and to permit the development of standards compatible with the commercial interests and with the protection of consumers.AcknowledgmentThis work is supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (project 60571030).国际标准的发展促进国内PLC的研究摘要在该领域的PLC ，标准化进程，国际一级的进展十分缓慢。 EMC的实验室，华北电力大学收到了任务，制定一个测量方法，为外地辐射装置用PLC和标准，用于在今后的监管的PLC部署。经过简短介绍的标准化进程在国际一级，提出了测量数据进行的华北电力大学的辐射领域，由于PLC的。比较外地的各种限制显示。最后，文件还提出了审查监管情况，国际一级。关键词： PLC ，标准化，电磁干扰。1 .导言在过去6至7年，可行性研究已经完成在不同国家，以检查是否有可能利用低压配电网络，使数据传输和电话联系，最终也对个人客户的频率高达30 MHz的。这一新技术被称为电力线通信（ PLC ）的。这种应用是特别有趣的是电力，一方可以以这种方式进入电信市场，并利用其网络，电力网络的数据传输，另一边可以使用此技术来控制自己的网络。然而，这种传输模式中频段从6月1日至30兆赫的各种礼物和相当复杂的电磁兼容问题。主要的问题isproduction的网络中的干扰和环境。2 .干扰源干扰的来源都是辐射，并进行：-排放的电磁噪声，可干扰无线电通讯的安全或军事用途，或干扰无线电业余爱好者；-进行差分和共模电流可以穿透任何设备连接到网络中，公司正在努力。骚乱有两种类型的来源：-信号源的不对称，由于耦合不对称；-不平衡的低压配电网（ LVDN ） ，因此一个共同的模式，以差模转换。转换差别的共同模式由于网络不平衡分析了各种文件，例如在不同的解决方案已经缓解还提议在文献，但研究工作必须进一步继续。3 .标准化在国际一级关于电磁兼容问题，在国际层面上，两种类型的标准，必须制订：-产品标准；-网络标准。3.1产品标准产品标准应修改CISPR22标准的任务是小组委员会的CISP。第一个想法是的概念扩大纵向转换损耗（柜）具体对称双丝电信的非对称电网。表现在各种测量电力网络，因为这些显示图，给予了大量的传播拼箱值。这是不可能达成协商一致的概念基础上拼箱值，用于计算的电压限制在港口的设备连接到网络，但这个概念已经被确立为案件电信线路。经过大约4年的工作和一系列文件光盘（委员会草案）阶段，这一概念没有找到所要求的合格的多数批准的CISPR /我/虽然，它发现了多数人的赞同在工作组内。这是决定重新开始新的工作评价的基础。一项新的工作项目提案（ NWIP ）是由法国国家委员会，并核准于2005年4月这项工作将无法集中更多的拼箱价值，但将努力：-描述了典型的电力设施的地方是连接PLC设备；-确定潜在的不安服务/设备为每个典型部分电力设施上文所述；-评估的保护水平，目前提供的CISPR22为每个设备/服务；-建立辐射和排放量进行限制，每一个典型的电力安装一节时， PLC的运行。这项工作开始于2005年6月，目前正在取得进展。3.2网络标准欧盟委员会已经于2001年发布的任务313使CENELEC和ETSI的任务是制定标准，确定排放限值的所有通信网络，包括PLC的不同的限制提出了不同的国家（德国，英国，挪威）和实体（ CENELEC ，催化裂化，英国广播公司） 。之间的分歧的各种建议是相当大，因此无法达成共识。 联合工作组的ETSI / CENELEC编制了若干草案，这都没有得到批准的全国委员会。4 .
