Power Line Communications (PLC) is a promising emerging technology, which has attracted
much attention due to the wide availability of power distribution lines. This book provides a …

Power line infrastructure is available almost everywhere. Positioning systems aim to
estimate where a device or target is. Consequently, there may be an opportunity to use …

Abstract Characterization and emulation of power line noise have attracted interest since
long, in both narrowband and broadband applications. Based on existing models, this paper …

Power line communication (PLC) offers a convenient and inexpensive medium for data
transmission, however this technology still face a difficult challenge: the channel modeling …

This pair of papers proposes a new approach towards the channel modeling of transmission
and distribution broadband over power lines (BPL) networks either on the theoretical or on …

In this paper, novel statistical models for the representation of the periodic impulsive noise
generated by power loads connected to power grids in indoor scenarios are developed …

Broadband Power Line Communication (PLC) technologies represent a main factor of the
development of the digital convergence voice-data-video in the home environment. Such …

Accurate power line channel models are an essential asset for the development of
advanced power line communication systems. A physically based power line …

Indoor powerline channels usually exhibit a cyclic input-output behavior due to the time-
varying impedance of power loads. This makes typical time-invariant system models …

This paper analyzes the resource allocation problem in an indoor PLC system with a
physical (PHY) layer based on OFDM and a medium access control (MAC) scheme with …
