Abstract

A recently introduced baseband digital technique for electric power line communication using power signal waveform modification is discussed, and its error probability performance is studied as a function of critical parameters of the technique and signal-to-noise ratio. The technology, which is insensitive to fluctuations in power signal amplitude, frequency, and waveshape, is a generalized form of amplitude shift keying, dubbed partial amplitude shift keying
