Interference mitigation for broadband over power line

摘要

Systems and methods to exchange data between a vehicle and a remote computer system, are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system to exchange data between a vehicle and a remote computer system comprises at least one power line adapted to couple to the vehicle, a local area network, a modem coupled to the local area network and the at least one power line, and a power line interference server comprising logic to allocate communication channels within a specified frequency range on the power line. Other embodiments may be described.

主权项

1. A system comprising:
a modem coupled to a power line, the power line adapted to couple a vehicle with a remote computer via a communication network; and a power line interference server, wherein the power line interference server is configured to dynamically determine whether a first set of portions of a specified frequency range are unavailable for communication channels, wherein the power line interference server is configured to determine a throughput available on a first portion of the first set of portions and to add a frequency range corresponding to the first portion of the first set of portions to frequency data from a database in response to the throughput not satisfying a throughput threshold, wherein the power line interference server is configured to cease dynamically determining whether the first portion is unavailable for communication channels in response to the throughput not satisfying the throughput threshold, and wherein the power line interference server comprises logic to allocate communication channels within a specified frequency range on the power line for the vehicle to communicate with the remote computer within the specified frequency range after the power line interference server ceases to dynamically determine whether the first portion is unavailable for communication channels.
