      Narrowband PLC Harmonic Analyzer Developed a cost-effective, portable monitoring device for Smart Grid powerline communications focused on the narrowband range of 144KHz. Designed the input attenuator and bandpass filter circuit using rail-to-rail op amps specific to single supply applications. Waveform sampled and processed using FFT libraries. Spectral output sent to microcontroller display.
