19、709protocol stack is a substantial topic and beyond the scope of this paper.This paper will primarily discussthe physical layer implementation.The CEA-709 communication system is defined with a carrier frequency of 131.579 kHz.Each transmittedbit consists of 24 cycles of a sine wave at the carrier f
20、requency,resulting in a baud rate of 5.5 kbps.Thephase of each bit field can be set to 0 degrees to encode a“zero”bit or 180 degrees to encode a“one”bit.Signal Reception:The 131.5 kHz modulated signal is detected by first removing the 50/60 Hz power linevoltage at the coupling network and then filte
21、ring the signal with a second order active band-pass filter.This filter is constructed using an operational amplifier.The output of the band-pass filter is sampled byone channel of the DSPs analogto-digital converter.The signal sample sequence is processed by anFIR matched filter and the output of t
22、his filter is used to perform timing recovery and data detection.By sampling the received signal at 115 kHz,which is 21/24ths of the carrier frequency,the signal can bedown-sampled from 131.5 kHz to an intermediate frequency of 16.5 kHz.This operation can be describedas mixing or multiplying the inc
23、oming carrier sine wave signal with the sample rate clock.Themultiplication of two sine wave signals results in a signal containing the sum and difference of thefrequencies of the two sine waves.Figure 3 shows the manner in which the frequencies fold aroundmultiples of the Nyquist frequency.Figure 3
24、.Frequency Effect of Under-SamplingThe resulting digital values from the under-sampled analog-to-digital conversion have a frequency contentof 16.5 kHz plus the additive noise from the communication channel.In operation,the DSP generates an interrupt at the completion of each ADC sample conversion.E
25、achsample is then compared to the output of the digital PLL to estimate the phase of the received signal.Atthe bit rate,5.5 kHz,the phase is determined.If the phase is less than 90 degrees then a“zero”isassumed to be received,otherwise a“one”is assumed to be received.SPRAAD5March 2006Power Line Comm
26、unication for Lighting Applications Using Binary Phase Shift Keying(BPSK)with a Single DSP Controller3Submit Documentation FImplementation OF CEA-709 ProtocolThe received bit sequence is compared to the known bit pattern for the“bit sync”field which is sent at thebeginning of a transmitted data pack
27、et.When the bit sync pattern is recognized,the modem then beginslooking for the“word sync”pattern.The word sync pattern demarks the start of message data and alsodefined the polarity of the message data.After the data portion of the packet is determined and each bithas been detected,each 8-bit data
28、byte is decoded from the 11-bit codeword for that byte.The parity bitfor each byte is compared to the calculated parity for the transmitted data.The data is passed on from thePHY layer to the MAC layer.If the CRC checksum calculated from the received data agrees with the CRCword that was transmitted
29、,the message is passed on from the MAC/Link layer to the Network layer.Phase Detection:In order to detect the transmitted signal,“zero”or“one”,the phase of the 16.5 kHz IFsignal is detected in the discrete received signal values.This is done by first driving a digitalphase-lock-loop(PLL)with the rec
30、eived samples.When the output of the PLL is locked synchronouslywith the received signal,an estimate of the complex phase between the PLL and the received signal isgenerated by the PLL module.The real part of the complex phase is the cosine sum and will be either alarge positive value when a“zero”ha
31、s been received or a large negative value when a“one”has beenreceived.The complex part of the phase is the sine sum.This represents the phase error and is fed backto the PLL to adjust the sine output so that it tracks the received signal.Figure 4.Receive Signal Processing Block DiagramFigure 4 shows
32、 the complete receive signal processing block diagram.An automatic gain control moduleis also added to increase the robustness of the system.The AGC module applies an applicable gain to thereceive signal by detecting the average magnitude of the receive signal.Signal Transmission:In this application
33、 the transmit signal is generated directly using the on-chip PWMmodule outputs of the DSP controller.Each bit is defined to be 24 cycles,so the PWM controller isallowed to run for 24 cycles and then an interrupt reassigns the PWM outputs based on the polarity of thenext bit being transmitted.To gene
34、rate the transmit waveform,the message data to be transmitted ispassed from the Application layer to the Session layer,to the Transport layer,to the Network layer,to theMAC/Link layer,and then to the PHY.At the Link layer the CRC word for the message data is calculatedand appended to the data.The MA
35、C layer holds the data until the PHY has determined if the channel isavailable.This is done by looking for the presence of the preamble pattern on the power line.PWM Generation for the Transmit Waveform:A tri-level signal waveform is generated by summing twoPWM outputs from the DSP controller.This t
36、ri-level waveform is then low-pass filtered to produce a sinewave.A tri-level waveform has much lower odd-harmonic energy than a standard two-level square wave.4Power Line Communication for Lighting Applications Using Binary Phase Shift Keying(BPSK)with a Single DSP ControllerSPRAAD5March 2006Submit

38、 harmonic frequency content.In order to minimize harmonicsthat the filter needs to remove we need to use the optimum pulse width.This can be found by writing outthe formula for the Fourier series for a symmetric pulse where T is the fundamental frequency period andw is the pulse width.The total harm
39、onic distortion(THD)can be expressed asUsing these equations and solving for the minimum total harmonic distortion(THD),the optimum pulsewidth is found to be approximately 37%of the period T.However,this does not take into account theeffect of the low pass filtering the waveform.If a second order lo
40、w pass filter is applied to the waveform adifferent result is found.The Q of the 2nd order low pass filter used in simulations was set to 2.3.Thisvalue is a tradeoff between improved THD and the natural response time constant.With a large Q theTHD would be even better but the circuit rings from one
41、transmitted bit time into the next bit time,resultingin inter-symbol interference.Therefore,the optimum design sets the digital positive and negative pulsewidths to 1/3 of the pulse period and sets the low pass filter corner frequency to the same frequency asthe digital pulse train.The 1/3 pulse wid
