Book excerpt: This excellent resource synthesizes the theory and practice of PLC, providing a straightforward introduction to the fundamentals of PLC, as well as an exhaustive review of the performance, evaluation, security, and heterogeneous network that combine PLC with other means of communications. It advances the groundwork on power-line communication (PLC), a tool which has the potential to boost the performance of local networks, and provides useful worked practical problems on, for example, PLC protocol optimization. Covering the PHY and MAC layers of the most popular PLC specifications, including tutorials and experimental frameworks, and featuring many examples of real-world applications and performance, it is ideal for university researchers and professional engineers designing and maintaining PLC or hybrid devices and networks.
