Broadband Communications in the Indoor Power Line Environment: The pDSL Concept

International Symposium on Power Lines Communications - ISPLC 2004, Zaragoza, Spain, March 2004.

Abstract: The concept of pDSL networking, which enables the realization of high speed broadband communications, is presented in this work. A pDSL network consists of a set of virtual high-speed links between of a PLC Gateway and multiple pDSL devices. pDSL devices exploit a network response-estimation model and channel training procedures to allocate bandwidth to each virtual link. The paper describes the characteristics of initial and inbound training processes and presents the criteria for performing optimum bandwidth allocation to all active links on a pDSL network.
