The challenges of integrating BPL into existing telecom business models: market visions from Brazilian research

Interference measurements by power line communications over HF aeronautical systems

“…For reasons of physical limitations of the environment and/or equipment, these distances can be modified and matched with post-processing of data, as foreseen in the recommendation itself. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] …”

“…[1][2][3][4][5] While this is a concern matter and even national security, the lack of specific regulations to the matter has led several authors to use adaptations of standards, as the recommendation K.60 ITU-T in the interference measurements in this band of frequencies. To avoid possible contamination of the spectrum and enable the coexistence of PLC/BPL systems, providing the proper electromagnetic compatibility with other services allocated in the band in question, become necessary studies that specify the proper procedures for mitigation, indicating the tracks to be protected and limits for the operation of PLC/BPL equipment.…”

Review of ITU-T K.60 procedures for measurement of unintentional interference on broadband over power line systems

“…There is widespread concern with the issue of non intentional spurious generated by the operation of these systems in the 1 to 30 MHz range of frequencies. [1][2][3][4][5] The studies were developed in order to specifically characterize the potential interference of PLC/BPL systems in HF communications and real power line distribution systems, avoiding possible deterioration in the services regulated in the HF range. While this is a concerning matter and even national security, the lack of specific regulations to the matter has led several authors to use adaptations of standards, as the K.60 recommendation (ITU-T) for the interference measurements in this band of frequencies.…”
