description | In power line communication (PLC), couplers such as coupling transformers and band-pass matching coupling circuits are usually required for coupling, band-pass filtering, and impedance matching. However, the cost and size of transformers prevent them from being an economic and compact solution for PLC couplers. In addition, passive band-pass matching coupling circuits need accurate impedance matching and possibly incur power losses. In this paper, a 6th order multiple feedback (MFB) active power filter with the minimum number of components was designed for narrow-band PLC, which has high input impedance and low output impedance, allowing outstanding performance in main voltage isolation, suppressing the current-harmonics and compensating the reactive power simultaneously. Finally, simulations were conducted in the range of 95 kHz-125 kHz (CENELEC “B-band”), which confirmed that the new filter met the CENELEC requirements for transmission and disturbance levels. |
