Abstract:Power-Line Communication (PLC) employs multi-carrier modulations, such as Filter-Bank Multi-Carrier (FBMC), to improve communications through the PLC channel and provide an efficient use of the spectrum, thus allowing higher data rates. Since one of the main drawbacks is the noisy channel with multipath and frequency-selective fading, the receiver typically includes a channel estimator and equalizer, at the expense of increasing the computational load and complexity of that receiver and making it difficult to … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
