Power line communication (PLC) has been used to transmit and receive digital data via power line in wide application. However, power lines weren’t built for data transmission originally. In practice, data transmission is commonly subjected to switching noise by the multi-path effect. The objective of this research is to establish a platform for easily tune the controller for motor control system under the PLC environment. We build up a dynamic model to simulate the power line environment for communication and propose a frequency-shift keying (FSK) technique to modulate and demodulate the signal for the purpose of network control in the disturbed feedback control loop. A modified proportional-integralderivative controller (PID controller) on positioning control a DC servo motor is proposed to against noise corruption while achieving tracking performance.
