Abstract

In the last few decades, the use of power converters has become essential in the smart grid environment. Consequently, this leads to the presence of a high-level of conducted electromagnetic interference between the smart grid elements. This paper studies the effect of two power converter modulation techniques: conventional fixed-frequency modulation and spread-spectrum modulation, on the performance of the Power Line Communication (PLC) signal. The paper presents a practical implementation of the system and discusses the results for different operating scenarios.
