Abstract

Power Line Communication PLC becomes the preferred technique for providing broadband to homes and offices with the advantage of eliminating the need for new wiring infrastructure and reducing the cost. An effect of an impulsive noise is identified as one of the major impairment in PLC. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing OFDM is one of the modulation techniques for PLC by most researchers and is used in this research. The performance of OFDM is analysed by adding Middleton Class A noise and applying it to the channel in an attempt to corrupt the signal. The results will show that the different modulation orders of Phase Shift Keying PSK are applied to test the input image which may be any size of a gray scale image or a colour image by comparing the values of Bit Error Rate BER , the average phase error and the percentage of pixel errors in the operation of OFDM system. In doing so, GUI from MATLAB software is used to simulate the operation of virtual transmitter and receiver.
