Abstract :
Practical implementations of power line communications (PLCs) with multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) generally suffer from crosstalk between ports. Presented is a crosstalk ratio (CR)-based adaptive 2 × 2 MIMO PLC along with simulation results that demonstrate an improvement on conventional 2 × 2 MIMO PLC in terms of bit-error-rate.
