2P6-8 Monitoring and Controlling Power Line Communication Power Generators in Underwater Environment Using CDMA on Acoustic Communication and Power Line Communication(Poster Session)

Abstract

This paper presents a new approach to monitoring and controlling the distribution substations for the power generators in shallow waters combining the underwater acoustic communication (UAC) system. This system makes use of both UAC and underwater power line communication (UPLC) by means of binary phase shift keying (BPSK) of code division multiple access (CDMA) with Hadamard code, in order to accomplish the smart grid of distribution automation system. The system can be used to evaluate the performance of bit error rate (BER) value in terms of the transmitted distance and the transmitted signal power.
