Smart home battle, power line carrier is coming back

Smart home is a hot topic in the past 2014, and its major technologies are also “not in the hope”, and most of them have achieved leapfrog development. Communication technology is undoubtedly the hottest topic in the industry, and mainstream wireless communication standards such as WiFi, ZigBee, and Bluetooth are familiar to all walks of life. The above are also the most popular protocols. However, in the history of smart home development, power carrier communication technology (PLC) has also been favored in the early days.

On January 16th, in the Wisdom Family Sub-forum of the Internet of Things Conference hosted by Electronic Enthusiasts, Tang Shiping, Director of Longyi Intelligent Technology R&D, shared the application of PLC in smart home. In the context of the current battle for wireless communication standards, we cannot ignore the key role of power carrier communication in the field of Internet of Things. Its development has been around for a long time, and technology is approaching maturity. I believe this need not be repeated.

Building a home Internet of things to achieve intelligent control

The Internet of Things itself is the technical foundation of intelligent control. Nowadays, the purpose of the industry is to realize the interconnection of all things through all relevant technologies. In the smart home environment, the cloud, the human terminal and the terminal are also connected, and this means is nothing more than cloud computing, big data and communication technology.

Obviously, making home smart is not just a single item. Tang Shiping pointed out that there are many types of electrical appliances and terminal equipment. Realizing intelligent control will inevitably generate a large amount of data. Therefore, big data and cloud computing are also the key factors to grasp the user experience. In fact, the more data generated, the more powerful the smart device is. For an overly large data system, cloud computing can be a heavy responsibility. The combination of the two can also achieve true intelligence for the device.

In addition, communication technology is also an important part of intelligent control. Tang Shiping said that communication distance, communication speed, stability and single point cost are the top priorities of manufacturers. For now, companies represented by industry giants have turned their attention to wireless access, and the latter seems to be supposed to become The label for future smart home control.

The competition of communication standards, PLC is not to be outdone

The wireless communication technology that everyone is familiar with is undoubtedly the mainstream standard such as WiFi, ZigBee and Bluetooth. However, reports on the shortcomings of the above technologies are also commonplace. Tang Shiping believes that each communication standard can play its own advantages in different occasions. Vendors should select specific communication technologies for different applications, and effectively solve problems according to local conditions. Mr. Tang also said that in addition to wireless communication technology, PLC has played an important role in the Internet of Things and smart home applications.

Communication standard comparison

In fact, power carrier technology still has a very high popularity abroad. Taking ECHELON Corporation as an example, its power carrier technology solution is almost the same as wireless cost, and its stability and security are stronger than several mainstream wireless communication technologies. In Europe and America, PLC has covered most buildings. Tang Shiping also emphasized that the anti-interference ability, data security and wide coverage of PLC in communication are unmatched by the existing wireless IOT communication technology. In addition, the PLC communicates with the power supply cable, and it also gets rid of the trouble of the new wiring, and has the function of transmitting data with power. Finally, Mr. Tang also said that although in the IoT communication scheme of smart homes, only one side has the sound of wireless technology, but PLC is the natural best IoT technology.

We believe that in the field of smart home communication, the role of PLC can not be ignored, power carrier is expected to be popular again with smart home.
