“…Some feasibility and experimental studies include the works in [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7]. In the same line, smart city [8], in-home automation [9] and telemetry [10] applications can naturally benefit from the fact that new cabling is not required and that wireless propagation issues are avoided.…”

In recent decades, power line communication has attracted considerable attention from the research community and industry, as well as from regulatory and standardization bodies. In this article we provide an overview of both narrowband and broadband systems, covering potential applications, regulatory and standardization efforts and recent research advancements in channel characterization, physical layer performance, medium access and higher layer specifications and evaluations. We also identify areas of current and further study that will enable the continued success of power line communication technology.essentially concerned with coexistence with other systems that also use the power grid (i.e. machines and appliances that draw electricity) and wireless systems operating in the same frequency bands as PLC. The frequency range used for today's PLC solutions starts as low as 125 Hz and reaches as high as 100 MHz. A useful classification of PLC systems according to frequency bands has been introduced in [28]: it distinguishes between ultra-narrowband (UNB), narrowband (NB) and broadband (BB) PLC systems, operating between about 125-3000 Hz, 3-500 kHz and 1.8-100 MHz, respectively. Most recent developments in standardization and regulation activities over the past 20 or so years apply to NB and BB PLC systems, and we will focus on these in the following.

“…At a distance of 50 m, the adapters reached an average throughput of 30–35 Mbps. Castor et al [ 21 ] used BB-PLC modems for onshore oil and gas industry applications on MV line. Modems worked in the spectrum 2–32 MHz, but the standard is not defined in the article.…”

Broadband Power Line communication is considered as one of possible communication technologies for the buildings communication infrastructure in the concept of Smart Building. The possible applications where BPL (Broadband over Power Lines) solution can be used for communication in the concept of Smart Building are Power Quality (PQ) measurement, Electric Vehicle or Micro Grids and Distribution Generation (DG). This article should help to determine clear performance possibilities of BPL for an implementation in Smart Building especially due to a large amount of overhead caused by cybersecurity and the protocol overhead. The possibilities of BPL were measured with five different BPL solutions. The results show a sufficient throughput on the application layer for Smart Building application, because, in the literature, various throughput limits are introduced. According to related work, there are missing measurements on the application layer for laboratory conditions as well as compared with real field measurements. In this article, we also exploit our novel idea of a broadband PLC (Power Line Communication) modem integrated into an electrical outlet.

“…At the receiver, the

signals are combined after photodetection, analog‐to‐digital conversions (A/D) and pilot removal. The joined complex‐valued signal is then demultiplexed via the FFT processing, before conventional equalisation through one‐tap equaliser [39]. A similar process is used in the signal obtained from green channel, excepting the demultiplexing provided by the DHT and the demapping by a common PAM decision.…”

Transmission of three-dimensional (3D) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals over red, green and blue (RGB) visible light communication (VLC) systems is proposed and experimentally validated. The novel 3D modulation format aims to overcome the different luminous response of RGB light-emitting diodes at the same driving current levels, that generates a correlation among the three RGB analog signals instead of considering each channel as independent from each other, as is in classical uniform wavelength division multiplexing transmissions. In the proposed scheme, real and imaginary parts of OFDM signals are sent through the red and blue channels of the VLC transmitter, respectively, while the third dimension of the OFDM symbol is transmitted through the green channel, according to a procedure that allows the maximisation of the Euclidean distance among the 3D constellation symbols. For the OFDM signal reconstruction and decoding at the receiver side, advanced digital signal processing for frame synchronisation and reconstruction of the 3D constellation diagram are implemented. Experimental results are included to validate the transmission of a 27.3 Mbps system through a VLC link of 1.5 m.
