SUMMARY
In-building power lines have often been considered as attractive media for high-speed data transmission,
particularly for applications like home networking. In this paper, we develop models for power line
channels based both on theoretical considerations and practical measurements. We consider power
line channel frequency response and noise models in the 1–30 MHz band and propose a number of power
line test channels in which to measure the performance of power line modems. Copyright # 2003 John
