Fig. 2 gives the BER for QPSK and Fig. 3 shows the
BER for 512 carriers OFDM with QPSK on each carrier
for three kinds of impulsive noise. For a typical PLC
network, is determined. Hence, in the simulation, by
fixing and changing SNR, it can obtain the BER under
different signal power.
In Fig. 2, the increase of the SNR can improve the BER
performance when SNR is less than around 10dB. After
10dB, continuing to increase the SNR will not improve
the performance effectively. Furthermore, higher SNR
will introduce serious electromagnetic radiation problem
for PLC, which may interfere the shortwave radio.
For impulsive noise Scenario I, the best BER is only
1e-3. According to (12), for a 1kbits length packet, when
BER is 1e-3, PER is 0.632, which is not applicable for a
reliable communication system. For Scenarios II and III,
the best BERs are around 1e-5 and 1e-6, corresponding to
PERs of 0.01 and 0.001 respectively, which can be
regarded as reliable communication systems. Hence,
under heavily disturbed impulsive noise, QPSK cannot be
used. For medium and weakly disturbed impulsive noise,
QPSK can be used as modulation scheme.
