Testing home PLC network in multi-storey house

The technology based on the principle of data transmission over electrical networks called PLC (Power Line Communication) PLC modulate high-frequency signal in the order of tens of MHz to low-frequency electric signal 50 Hz. This technology is suitable for data transmission, whether in the form of narrowband or broadband services. This paper deals with the measurement of transfer rates in a real home network built on a PLC technology platform, which allows the construction of a less expensive functional home network without the need for new structured cabling. The results of measurements of transmission rates in individual parts of the apartment house will serve for a more optimal distribution of terminal equipment in the home network.
