  • Abstract
    In this paper, algorithms for synchronization acquisition on multi-carrier transmission systems for broadband in-home power-line communications (PLC) are analyzed. Three symbol synchronization methods are studied and compared over realistic PLC channel models. These algorithms are evaluated as part of a PLC system that includes practical techniques for channel estimation, equalization and bit loading and whose parameters are set according to PLC standards.
