Summary:
This talk presents a general overview of the DLCVIT4IP Smartgrid project. Firstly, the key application services for automating the Medium Voltage (MV) and Low Voltage (LV) Distribution Grid will be identified and those applications that will especially benefit from PLC and are targeted by DLC+VIT4IP will be discussed in detail. Furthermore, lessons learnt from DLCVIT4IP in the areas of modem installation in MV and LV real life scenarios, and measurement results including channel attenuation, input impedance, EMC, and BER performance will be presented. It will be shown that important services based on the DLC+VIT4IP project has further strengthen PLC as a suitable technology for providing the much needed communication solution for the smart grid vision.
