HOMEPLUG AV AND IEEE 1901

HANIPH A. LATCHMAN, SRINIVAS KATAR, LAWRENCE W. YONGE III and SHERMAN GAVETTE - Personal Name;

The explosive growth of the Internet has led to the need for ubiquitous data and multimedia communications in the twenty-ﬁrst century. In-home distribution of multimedia content is still a challenge, particularly for homes not equipped with specialized wiring to support high-speed data and multimedia communications. Retroﬁtting buildings with new wiring is prohibitively expensive and wireless solu- tions do not reliably provide “whole house” coverage for multimedia applications. Hence, the need arises for a new LAN technology that enables affordable and ubiquitous connectivity within the home. The existing electrical wiring is unique in thatitprovidesalargenumberofconnectionpointsthroughoutthehome,eliminatinga signiﬁcant limitation of other existing wires, speciﬁcally coax cables or traditional telephone lines. However, unlike the relatively clean communication coax and phone line channel, there are many challenges in communication over the harsh powerline channel that must be overcome to make powerline communication (PLC) a viable “no new wires” home networking solution for high speed multimedia applications. This book provides a clear and simple overview of key features of the HomePlug AV speciﬁcation and the associated IEEE 1901 standard. It provides details on how the challenges associated with communicating over the electrical wiring were overcome and also the justiﬁcations and explanations of the reasoning behind the technical decisions that were made in the speciﬁcation. The reader is referred to the HomePlug AV speciﬁcation and the IEEE 1901 standard for the technical details needed for implementation.
