Packet Error Rate and Bit Error Rate Measurement of a PLC System Based on USRPs

This paper deals with attenuation, noise, packet error rate and bit error rate measurement over a low voltage power line network for indoor environment data transmission. Moreover, the design and implementation of the electronic circuits needed for the implementation of the system are detailed. OFDM transmitter and receiver were implemented using GNU Radio and USRPs transmission of data and packet and bit error rate were calculated.
