Analysis and Modeling of Physical Stratum for Power Line Communication

In recent days, power line communication is one of the emerging technologies for high data rates (data transmitted at high speed). It is also cost effective and dependable channel. It is used in many applications such as home automation, broadband internet access, car embedded systems etc. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing dependent PLC physical layer is presented in this work. It is measured in terms of BER employing MATLAB 2013a. Here, multipath channel model is employed for the purpose of simulation because of the unavailability of a primary PLC channel
