Abstract

This paper proposes a new approach to modeling the radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic disturbances in broadband power line communication (PLC) networks using the multi-conductor transmission line (MTL) theory. The model includes a differential-mode (DM) current propagation model and a common-mode (CM) current propagation model. The frequency range of interest is from 1 MHz to 30 MHz. Practical measurements are carried out to compare with the simulation results as a form of verification of the accuracy of the proposed models.
