Abstract:
Power Line Communication (PLC) in Bangladesh has been extrapolated from many technical research papers and recent trade publications. The purpose of this study is to identify powerline communication components critical to the deployment of indoor and outdoor applications and consumer communications during the global commercial development of various potential services. Considerations include potential service, bandwidth, coverage area, quality, reliability, and cost. Electricity grids, with their more decentralized structure and unpredictable availability than their traditional counterparts, have undergone major changes on the generation side in recent years as the use of energy sources (renewables) increases. In the same way that the spread of electric vehicles will significantly change consumer behaviour. These new conditions require better monitoring and control of grid assets, and smart metering is essential to achieving both goals. Power line communication (PLC) has emerged as a viable alternative in many situations, but there are many communication technologies available for smart metering applications. In addition, it provides a private communications network for distribution system operators (DSOs) and seamlessly integrates sensors and communications capabilities. This intern paper briefly discusses PLCs as they relate to smart meters and the need for powerline communication in Bangladesh as a key component of digital Bangladesh.
