“…Since one of the main advantages of using PLC networks is the possibility of re-using the existing wired electrical network to provide communication capabilities, the smart grid remains one of the most appealing applications of PLC and consequently the research carried out in this area is vast. Some feasibility and experimental studies include the works in [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7]. In the same line, smart city [8], in-home automation [9] and telemetry [10] applications can naturally benefit from the fact that new cabling is not required and that wireless propagation issues are avoided.…”

In recent decades, power line communication has attracted considerable attention from the research community and industry, as well as from regulatory and standardization bodies. In this article we provide an overview of both narrowband and broadband systems, covering potential applications, regulatory and standardization efforts and recent research advancements in channel characterization, physical layer performance, medium access and higher layer specifications and evaluations. We also identify areas of current and further study that will enable the continued success of power line communication technology.essentially concerned with coexistence with other systems that also use the power grid (i.e. machines and appliances that draw electricity) and wireless systems operating in the same frequency bands as PLC. The frequency range used for today's PLC solutions starts as low as 125 Hz and reaches as high as 100 MHz. A useful classification of PLC systems according to frequency bands has been introduced in [28]: it distinguishes between ultra-narrowband (UNB), narrowband (NB) and broadband (BB) PLC systems, operating between about 125-3000 Hz, 3-500 kHz and 1.8-100 MHz, respectively. Most recent developments in standardization and regulation activities over the past 20 or so years apply to NB and BB PLC systems, and we will focus on these in the following.

With the ongoing trends in the energy sector such as vehicular electrification and renewable energy, the Smart Grid (SG) is clearly playing a more and more important role in the electric power system industry. One essential feature of the SG is the information flow over high-speed, reliable, and secure data communication networks in order to manage the complex power systems effectively and intelligently. SGs utilize bidirectional communication to function whereas traditional power grids mainly only use one-way communication. The communication requirements and suitable techniques differ depending on the specific environment and scenario. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive and up-to-date survey on the communication technologies used in the SG, including the communication requirements, physical layer technologies, network architectures, and research challenges. This survey aims to help the readers identify the potential research problems in the continued research on the topic of SG communications.

It has a data rate up to 10Mbps, and operates in the 2 MHz -30 MHz spectrum (BB-PLC) [61,62] Fiber Optical Communication Fiber optical communication is well suited for control and monitoring, and backbone communication in WANs, although more expensive than other alternatives it has the advantages of long range, high bandwidth and high data rate, and and not being susceptible to electromagnetic disturbances. Limitations of fiber optic communication is the number of access points.…”
