    • Systems and methods for implementing power line communications (PLC) across different voltage domains using multiple frequency subbands are described. From an end node's perspective (e.g., a PLC device), a method may include scanning a plurality of downlink subbands usable by a base node (e.g., a PLC router, etc.) to communicate with one or more PLC devices (e.g., other end nodes) from a medium voltage (MV) to a low voltage (LV) power line, and transmitting association request(s) to the base node that select and/or allow the base node to select one or more downlink subbands for use in subsequent communications. From the base node's perspective, the method may include selecting one or more of a plurality of uplink subbands for use in subsequent communications based on the received association request(s). In various implementations, the selection of downlink and/or uplink subbands may be based on signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) values and/or congestion indicators.

    • Communication devices, such as base nodes and modems, that comply with two or more different standards operate on a shared communication channel. To avoid mutual interference, a base node operating under a first standard reserves time using a contention free period designation. The base node allows devices operating under a second standard to communicate during the reserved time by not assigning the contention free period to another device operating under the first standard. Alternatively, a device using the first standard may avoid interference from transmissions generated under the second standard by modifying data packets prior to transmission. A prefix corresponding to a preamble in the second standard is added to the beginning of the data packet created under the first standard. Devices operating under the second standard observe the prefix and recognize that the channel is active. The second-standard devices backoff from transmission thereby minimizing interference.
    • 符合两个或多个不同标准的通信设备,例如基础节点和调制解调器,在共享通信信道上运行。 为了避免相互干扰,基站在第一标准预留时间内使用无竞争周期指定运行。 基站节点允许在预留时间内通过不将无竞争周期分配给在第一标准下运行的另一设备来在第二标准下运行的设备进行通信。 或者,使用第一标准的设备可以通过在传输之前修改数据分组来避免在第二标准下产生的传输的干扰。 将与第二标准中的前导码相对应的前缀添加到在第一标准下创建的数据包的开头。 在第二个标准下运行的设备观察前缀并识别该通道是活动的。 第二标准设备从传输中退出,从而最小化干扰。

In some embodiments, a PLC device may include a processor and a memory coupled to the processor. The memory may be configured to store program instructions, which may be executable by the processor to cause the PLC device to communicate with a higher-level PLC apparatus over a power line using a frequency band. The frequency band may be selected based upon an application profile and/or a device class associated with the PLC device. In some implementations, the higher-level PLC apparatus may include a PLC gateway or a data concentrator, and the PLC device may include a PLC modem or the like. Examples of application profiles include access communications, in-premises connectivity, AC charging, and/or DC charging. Device classes may represent a minimum communication data rate and/or an operating frequency band restriction of the PLC device.

    • Systems and methods for implementing symbol-level repetition coding in power line communications (PLC) are described. In some embodiments, these systems and methods may provide reliable communication in severe channel environments of PLC networks, at least in part, by changing the forward error correction (FEC) used by various devices operating within current PLC systems. For example, a method may include receiving a PLC signal and applying convolutional encoding to the received signal, the convolutional encoding producing an encoded signal. The method may also include performing a subcarrier modulation operation upon the encoded signal, the subcarrier modulation operation producing a modulated signal. The method may further include applying symbol-level repetition coding to the modulated signal, the symbol-level repetition coding producing a repetitious signal. In some cases, one or more distinct repetition patterns may be applied to different symbols or portions thereof. The repetitious signal may then be transmitted over a power line.
