BROADBAND HF/VHF/UHF COMMUNICATION ON POWER LINES

摘要

Disclosed herein is a method of transmitting a broadband signal over a set of one or more conductors which can handle transmission at VHF/UHF, exemplarily over a ubiquitous medium voltage (MV) or low voltage (LV) power line network in TV/CATV channels, wherein the transmission channel is optionally divided into a plurality of sub channels, each being separated from each other in time or in carrier frequency . It is another object of this invention to provide an apparatus for data communication at UHF/VHF over a power line network wherein a transmission channel is divided into a plurality of sub channels each being separated from each other in time or in carrier frequency, comprising: Transmission means (transmitter), Reception means (receiver), Coupling means (coupler) by using known methods, Signal Processing means (signal processing), Regeneration means and Error correction means.
