Abstract
This study characterizes 5.8 GHz backscatter radio links in a transient, high-voltage power line environment. The measured results demonstrate how increased RF carrier frequency provides additional resistance to the noise, interference, and corona shielding of communication antennas that operate near high-voltage lines. The results lead to important design rules for low-powered wireless sensor applications deployed in the future smart grid.
