Abstract

This paper presents the impact of LED lamps on the performance of Narrowband Power Line Communication (NB-PLC) in the CENELEC-A band between 9-95 kHz. NB-PLC in is only one of the many victims of interference in the frequency range 2-150 kHz. Only few emission standards for this frequency range are available, while the number of interference cases is growing rapidly. Most equipment will fail at a specific frequency and/or level. PLC is chosen as a victim, as the performance of the PLC is rated through well-established parameters. One of these is the Frame Error Rate (FER), which is calculated as the ratio between the erroneous frames and total received frames. The number of LED lamps has a strong correlation with the peak amplitude of the current pulses from the LED lamps and the FER of the PLC data frames.
