Abstract :
As power line communications deployment is gaining momentum higher capacity is being demanded. Actually one possible solution to obtain an improved high speed broadband access can be the use of a hybrid technology in an indoor environment. This paper shows experimentally the advantages that could be obtained if the power line communication is joined with the Wi-Fi technology.
