Since the traditional power supply monitoring network meets several problems, a new way of distributed generation, together with the advanced possibilities of decentralized intelligent control, multi-route massive data communication, and fast-acting power electronics is suggested. In this system, latency is critical due to its real-time characteristic, and the improvement of the access network contributes the most to reducing the total latency. Broadband over Power Lines (BPL) is chosen as the access technology because it needs no further construction of communication lines, which means a cost saving. Three different MAC layer protocols, CSMA/CD, Token ring and the OPERA proposal, are analyzed in order to reduce the latency in the access network. Based on the assumptions for the monitoring and control network, the performance of these protocols is evaluated. The advantages and disadvantages are listed as well.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></work-type><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></accession-num><call-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></call-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></notes><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></custom1><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></custom2><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></custom4><custom5><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></custom5><custom6><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></custom6><custom7><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></custom7><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></research-notes><num-vols><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></num-vols><orig-pub><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></orig-pub><reprint-edition><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></reprint-edition><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></section><auth-address><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></auth-address><remote-database-name><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></remote-database-name><remote-database-provider><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></remote-database-provider><label><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></label><access-date><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"></style></access-date></record></records></xml>
