In a power line communication system, a master uses a twisted pair wire as a power line and a communication line and outputs a power signal and a data modulation signal to a slave. The slave includes an aperture antenna, a power monitoring portion, and a determining portion. The aperture antenna receives the power signal via the twisted pair wire by electromagnetic induction coupling of an electromagnetic field generated at the twisted pair wire in accordance with an applied current of the twisted pair wire. The aperture antenna has an aperture region facing an aperture region between twists of the twisted pair wire. The power monitoring portion monitors a power of the power signal received via the first aperture antenna. The determination portion determines whether to use another operation power received via the twisted pair wire on the basis of the power monitored by the power monitoring portion. |
