The analysis presented in this letter closely predicts the behavior of the PLC system under the combined effect of background and impulsive noises.
Abstract
Power line communication (PLC) is the use of power lines for the purpose of electronic data transmission. The presence of additive noise, namely, background noise and impulsive noise, significantly affects the performance of a PLC system. While the background noise is modeled by Nakagami- $m$ distribution, the impulsive noise is modeled using Middleton class A distribution. In this letter, we study the performance of a PLC system under the combined effect of Nakagami- $m$ background noise and Middleton class A impulsive noise assuming binary phase shift keying signaling. The probability density function of decision variable under the influence of additive noise (sum of background noise and impulsive noise) is derived. We also derive an analytical expression for the average bit error rate of the considered PLC system. The analytical expressions are validated by close matching to the simulation results. The analysis presented in this letter closely predicts the behavior of the PLC system under the combined effect of background and impulsive noises.

Bounds on the Capacity of MIMO Broadband Power Line Communications Channels

TL;DR: This work studies the fundamental rate limits for multiple input-multiple output (MIMO) BB-PLC channels, modeled as periodic channels with additive non-Gaussian noise and finite memory, and presents bounds on the capacity of these channels by exploiting a bijection with time-invariant MIMO channels of extended dimensions.

Nonlinearity Design With Power-Law Tails for Correlation Detection in Impulsive Noise

TL;DR: A novel design of nonlinear processing which improves the fundamental performance of signal detection in impulsive noise and can achieve almost the same efficacy and detection performance as the locally optimal detector, with the advantage of easy-to-apply closed form expressions.
