Popis: This work reports the measurement results of long-terms tests obtained in real smart street lighting LV networks and in lab test bed. The measurements results are presented in the form of PER vs. SNR characteristics for BPSK coded and BPSK coded with peak noise avoidance algorithm. The surprising results obtained from real LV networks prompted the Authors to carry out detailed lab tests. The setup for lab tests is also presented in this work. To carry out lab tests a suitable software was prepared, it allowed to obtain results in 72 times shorter time comparing to real conditions; it is why this work can present characteristics of PER vs. SNR even for the values of PER at the level of 10−9. The work concludes with disadvantages of using the peak noise avoidance algorithm in PLC communication for smart street lighting.
