Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of power carrier communication, in particular to a coding method for at least two communication signals of a carrier.

Background

In communication technology, a carrier wave (carrier signal or carrier) is an electric wave generated by an oscillator and transmitted over a communication channel, and is modulated to transmit voice or other information. The carrier frequency is usually higher than the frequency of the input signal, which is a high frequency signal that is modulated onto a high frequency carrier as if it were riding a train of high-speed rails or an airplane, and then transmitted and received. A carrier wave is the physical basis and vehicle upon which information (voice and data) is conveyed. The unmodulated periodic oscillating signal is referred to as a carrier wave, which may be a sine wave or a non-sine wave (e.g., a periodic pulse train), and the carrier wave is modulated and referred to as a modulated signal, which contains the full-wave characteristics of the modulated signal. The frequency of the sinusoidal carrier is generally required to be much higher than the bandwidth of the modulated signal, otherwise aliasing occurs, distorting the transmitted signal.

Power Line Communication (PLC) is a special Communication method for voice or data transmission using a Power Line as an information transmission medium. Because the power carrier technology can utilize the existing power line, the laying cost is extremely low. The signals to be transmitted in the power system comprise a communication signal of a metering device and a communication signal of a non-metering device, wherein the communication signal of the metering device has extremely high requirement on the accuracy of data transmission, and the communication signal of the non-metering device needs to be prevented from interfering with the communication signal of the metering device.

Detailed Description

The present invention is described below in terms of embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to assist those skilled in the art in understanding and implementing the present invention. Unless otherwise indicated, the following embodiments and technical terms therein should not be understood to depart from the background of the technical knowledge in the technical field.

In the present invention, the two signals are significantly different, which means that the electrical device or component can recognize the difference between the two signals, and the two signals are outputted with the distinguishing characteristics.

The invention discloses a coding method for at least two communication signals of carrier waves, which is used for conveying metering communication signals and non-metering communication signals on the same communication line.

Wherein the metering communication signal comprises a first signal representing a first information element and a second signal representing a second information element; the first signal is substantially different from the second signal in at least one of frequency, amplitude and phase. Taking square wave signals used by the single chip microcomputer as an example, a low level represents an information element, and a high level represents an information element. In serial communication coding, a low level of a unit time length is a signal indicating one information element, and a high level of the unit time length is another signal indicating another information element. The first signal is substantially different from the second signal in at least one of frequency, amplitude and phase.

Wherein the non-meter communication signal comprises a third signal representing a third information element and a fourth signal representing a fourth information element, the third signal being substantially different from the fourth signal in at least one of frequency, amplitude and phase.

The voltages of the metering communication signal and the non-metering communication signal are respectively positioned on two sides of the reference voltage, the metering communication signal in 1 information element period and any one or more non-metering communication signals with the same time length cannot be completely neutralized, and the non-metering communication signal in 1 information element period and any one or more metering communication signals with the same time length cannot be completely neutralized. The incomplete neutralization here means that the first signal, the second signal, the third signal, the fourth signal within 1 period of an information element can be represented on the current or voltage of the communication line.

Preferably, the frequency of the first signal is substantially identical to the frequency of the second signal, the first signal is a positive double-half sine wave, the second signal is null, and the start bit and the stop bit of the metering communication signal are both the first signal. The frequencies are substantially identical, i.e. the frequencies do not differ significantly, preferably the frequency of the first signal is equal to the frequency of the second signal, and most preferably the duty cycles of the first and second signals are kept identical. In the case where the number of bits of the metered communication signal remains unchanged, the first signal identifies the start bit and the stop bit of the metered communication signal, and the null in the first signal can be determined to correspond to the second signal. Since the second signal is null, there is no situation where it is not neutralized with any one or more non-metered communication signals of equal duration.

Furthermore, the metering communication signal is also encoded with a check bit for correcting the integrity of the metering communication signal, and the check bit is arranged between the start bit and the stop bit of the metering communication signal.

Preferably, the frequency of the third signal is substantially the same as the frequency of the fourth signal, the third signal is a negative double-half sine wave, the fourth signal is null, and both the start bit and the stop bit of the unmetered communication signal are the third signal. The frequencies are substantially identical, i.e. the frequencies do not differ significantly, preferably the frequency of the first signal is equal to the frequency of the second signal, and most preferably the duty cycles of the first and second signals are kept identical.

Further, the non-metering communication signal is also encoded with a check bit for correcting the integrity of the non-metering communication signal, and the check bit is arranged between the start bit and the stop bit of the non-metering communication signal.

Preferably, the frequency of the first signal substantially coincides with the frequency of the second signal, the first signal is a positive polarity double-half sine wave, the second signal is null, the frequency of the third signal substantially coincides with the frequency of the fourth signal, the third signal is a negative polarity double-half sine wave, the fourth signal is null, the frequency of the first signal is significantly different from the frequency of the third signal, and the amplitude of the first signal is significantly different from the amplitude of the third signal.

Fig. 2 shows a power line carrier communication device of the present invention transmitting metered communication signals and transmitting non-metered communication signals. In the figure, the signal representing the first information element of the gauging communication signal is a positive double-half sine wave, the signal representing the second information element of the gauging communication signal is null, and the frequency of the signal representing the first information element is the same as the frequency of the signal representing the second information element. The signal representing the third information element of the unmeasured communication signal is a negative polarity double-half sine wave, the signal representing the fourth information element of the unmeasured communication signal is null, and the frequency of the signal representing the third information element is the same as the frequency of the signal representing the fourth information element. Overall, the signal representing the first information element is significantly different in both frequency and amplitude from the signal representing the third information element, and the voltage of the metered communication signal and the voltage of the unmetered communication signal are on either side of the reference voltage (0V), respectively.
