  • Abstract
    Power lines that carry communication signals tend to produce radiated electromagnetic interference (EMI). In this paper it is shown how this, usually negative effect, is used for contactless signal transmission. Commercial PLC modems operating in the 150kHz - 30MHz band are used and LAN signals are contactlessly transmitted and received up to 2m.
