A MODEL FOR THE SIGNAL TRANSMISSION PERFORMANCE IN MV CABLES FOR POWER LINE COMMUNICATION
Abstract
The aim of this paper is the development of a theoretical model of medium voltage (MV) cables in the frequency range 50-200 kHz which can be easily implemented in the Simulink® environment. Two transmission line configurations, line-ground and line-line were considered. The model requires the knowledge of the transmission channel parameters in the frequency domain. Thus, a characterization of MV cables in the two transmission line configurations by means of experimental measurements was performed on commonly used MV cables, RG7H1R, of different sections, 95 mm² and 185 mm² with aluminium core and copper shielded. To validate the model a comparison between the attenuation constant α measured and the one simulated for both the configurations under study was carried out.
