“…The throughput and channel measurement results show that it is not easy to confirm the separation into direct and indirect links as it has proposed in [18]. In [19], similar measurements have been performed in a small sports car. Experimentations show the effects of electronic states on the channel (drops of about 10 dB), which are consistent with all the previous works.…”

To cite this version:Fabienne Nouvel, Philippe Tanguy Abstract-This paper deals with alternative automotive networks involved by the X-by-wire and X-tainment applications. New market demands like navigation, multimedia, security, safety and individualized options introduce more and more electronic control units. Furthermore, the automotive industry has to face a great challenge in its transition from mechanical engineering towards mechatronical products. In the last decades, the power line technology has received an increasing attention and spans several applications both in indoor, outdoor and invehicle data communications. To fulfil theses demands of intracar communications, techniques based on power line communication (PLC) seem to be a good candidate. These techniques offer both high data rate and good adequacy with power line properties. This paper revisits the work carried out in using PLC within the automotive domain. Different solutions are discussed and results are given for different applications.

“…For the Front-Rear links (Fig.2), we observe a linear decrease. Results in [19] exhibit more reflections and variable insertion loss in the [30-100] MHz. However, those figures make it is clear that a narrow band and single carrier transmission is not able to provide efficient connectivity.…”

“…The considered channels are correspondent to two distribution grid sections: the one with a star topology from the substation switchboard to the distribution boards, and the one with a bus bar structure from the distribution board to the room panels. For the in-car case, we consider the measurement database made available and described in [18].…”

SUMMARYThis paper provides an overview of power line communication (PLC) applications, challenges and possible evolution. Emphasis is put on two relevant aspects: a) channel characterization and modeling, b) filter bank modulation for spectral efficient transmission. The main characteristics of both the indoor channel (in-home, in-ship, in-car) and the outdoor low voltage and medium voltage channels are reported and compared. A simple approach to statistically model the channel frequency response (CFR) is described and it is based on the generation of a vector of correlated random variables. To overcome the channel distortions, it is shown that filter bank modulation can provide robust performance. In particular, it is shown that the sub-channel spectral containment of filtered multitone modulation (FMT) can provide high notching capability and spectral efficiency. Reduced complexity can be obtained with a cyclic filter bank modulation approach that we refer to as cyclic block FMT modulation (CB-FMT) which still provides higher spectral flexibility/efficiency than OFDM. key words: power line communications, power line channel, channel model, filter bank modulation

“…Three main domains need to be covered: the physical (PHY) layer, the data link layer and the performances. In order to answer to them, the properties of the automotive in board PLC supply networks have been investigated (Huck, 2005) (Arabia et al, 2006), (Degardin et al, 2006), (Mohammadi et al, 2009). The results show the insertion losses over the MHz bandwidth are about -15 dB and -36 dB in the frequency range [0.500-30] MHz.…”
