An experiment on lighting control of LEDs by power packet dispatching system

Recently, a power packet dispatching system was proposed as one of the new power distribution systems, which realizes various power transmission through one common power line. Multi-path routing for power packet dispatching system is realized using a new protocol which is included in the power packet, and the electric power is transferred with information. FPGA based hardware controller is used to realize a fast data transmission. In this paper, MHz order packet dispatching system was realized using FPGA based hardware controller. The proposed system was applied to the lighting control of LEDs and the multi-hop system. The basic performance was verified experimentally.
