Abstract
Adaptive digital f ilters have been shown to be useful in reducing the power of harmonic noise in distribution line communication systems. Many DLC systems currently in use employ hard limiters to reduce this type of noise prior to detection of the signal. This research shows that the adaptive noise cancellation filter can be used effectively in tandem with hard limiters. The optimal, limit of the limiter is determined in the cases of the presence and absence of the adaptive noise canceller.
