Narrowband Power Line Communication systems use a frequency range from 3 kHz to 500 kHz. Nonlinear loads are common in residences and unfortunately they produce harmonics. It is possible that some harmonics produced by the nonlinear loads may interact with the power line communication system. AC dimmers produce impulse noise. In this study, Fourier series of an AC chopper is computed and its current harmonics magnitudes which is in Narrowband Power Line Communication frequencies are examined with and without a smoothing inductor. Their harmonic magnitudes in the power line communication frequencies are compared. It has been found that the smoothing inductor performs well to decrease the AC chopper harmonics within the Narrowband power line frequencies.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessPower Line Communication (PLC)Nonlinear loadsAC chopperHarmonic analysis.SystemsConference Object213217N/AWOS:0005189242000382-s2.0-85070974121
