Power Line Communication (PLC) Market

Power Line Communication (PLC) Market Size

[170+ Pages Research Reports] to surpass USD 26.3 billion by 2032 by 2032 from USD 7.95 billion in 2021  at a CAGR of 11.5%  throughout the forecast period 2022-32

Power Line Communications (PLC) technique utilizes the existing public and private wiring to transmit signals. High-speed data, speech, and video are sent across low-voltage power lines using PLC communication signals. It uses a modular signal to deliver broadband data communications on conductors that are already being used for the transmission of electric power. Now, this may be accomplished through the wiring of the house or building or through the current electrical power distribution system. PLC is a type of communication technology that uses a sender to modulate the data that will be transmitted via a communication medium, followed by a receiver to demodulate the data for subsequent uses.

Market Dynamics

Growth Drivers

Number of Advantages of Power Line Communication Technology

Power line communication technology enables for widespread coverage in addition to being cost-effective. Given the abundance of power lines, power line communication technology can be used to manage and monitor almost all of the devices that get electricity from these lines. Power line communication technology is particularly helpful for communicating with equipment that are situated in remote locations without access to communication infrastructure since it makes use of the already-existing electricity distribution network. A greater regional network coverage is made possible and the Power Line Communication (PLC) Market is impacted as a result of the growth of each energy distribution network.

Increasing Demand for Faster Data Transfer and Higher Efficiency

Power Line Communication (PLC) Market growth is primarily being driven by the rising need for improved efficiency, quicker data transmission rates, and expanding demand for broadband power line communication equipment. One of the main reasons boosting market growth is the rising need for smart grids coupled with the widespread use of power line communications.

Restraint

Noise Considerably Impacts the Performance of the PLC Systems

One of the primary distortion variables that affect how well communication systems over power lines work is noise. Electrical equipment that is connected to the electric grid and radio broadcasters that transmit signals over short, middle, and long wave ranges all contribute to noise production. The performance of power line communication systems is inversely correlated with the noise on the power line. It is more difficult to discern the received signal as the noise level rises. The performance of a home network using power line communication technologies may suffer as a result.

Recent Developments

• PowerLink IP is a power line communication system that uses high-voltage lines between transformer substations as a medium for data, teleprotection, and voice communication. It was introduced by Siemens in September 2017. Bidirectional data transmission at a rate of up to 2.5 megabits per second (Mbps) is possible with this method using bandwidths of up to 256 kHz.
• Siemens and Uganda and Sudan, two nations in Africa, signed a contract in May 2017. In accordance with this arrangement, the business and its partners would create solutions for the provision of power, industry, transportation, and healthcare. In addition, the business would take part in the "Make IT Alliance" to support African start-ups and tech firms.
