Abstract :
Power line communication technology is one of the most tractable home-networking technologies, because existing power line facilities can be utilized for data communications without deploying any new physical links. Although HomePlug 1.0, the power line communication standard, has undergone field trials and simulations, its analytic model and performance was not presented. In this letter, we analyze the performance of HomePlug 1.0 in terms of saturation throughput.
