Abstract :
The transfer function of PLC (power line communication) channel is studied in this paper. We focus on the impact of various loads connected to the plugs of the power network. A matching method of electrical plugs is presented, to throw off the varying impedance of the different appliances plugged into wall sockets. The devices developed should provide better PLC systems performances.
