  • Abstract
    In this paper, we present the performance analysis of a Power Line Communication (PLC) system over log-normal fading channel assuming binary phase shift keying modulation scheme. The channel is also corrupted by additive impulsive noise and background noise. We derive the probability density function ( p.d.f.) of the noise and using it, we find the closed form expressions for the bit error rate (BER) and outage probability. Finally, the numerical results are presented.
