  • Abstract
    The problem of bit and power loading for bit rate maximization in OFDM data communications over indoor powerline channels is investigated and a simple method for bit/power allocation in a single cycle of the mains is developed. The proposed solution is based on the so called Zadeh´s representation for modelling the linear periodically time-varying behavior of powerline channels. Numerical results show the superiority of the proposed method over other solutions available in the technical literature in a real world scenario.
