On the Empirical Characterization of the Low Voltage Distribution Grid as a Transmission Medium for Narrowband Power Line Communications (9-500kHz)

Narrowband Power Line Communication (NB PLC) technologies exploit the existing Low Voltage (LV) distribution grid for carrying data signals, covering the 3 500 kHz frequency band. Although it offers several advantages over other wired or wireless alternatives, the frequency and time dependent transm...
