Abstract :
Realizing distributed control for a large scale district heating plant needs a metropolitan wireless communication framework among its pumps. The main challenge at PHY layer here is coverage rather than interference. This paper reviews the potential methods and proposes the use of magnetic induction via underground pipes as very long ferromagnetic cores. Feasibility of this method is verified by simulations.
