Abstract

This paper considers residential power line as communication channel for high speed power line communication (PLC). Power line is analysed according to transmission line theory. Four channel parameters: attenuation constant, phase constant, phase velocity, and group velocity are formulated as a function of characteristic impedance. The high frequency characteristics of these parameters are simulated for a practical residential power line cable.
