For the Grid and Through the Grid: The Role of Power Line Communications in the Smart Grid (2010, neutral): “and can be well coped with. However, as we move towards the distribution side and towards the home, attenuation and dispersion grow considerably especially at higher frequencies (see Table II) [115], [116]. On the other hand, the PLC channel is characterized by a high noise level at all voltage leve”
A mathematical model of noise in narrowband power line communication systems (2006, background): “In [12], the power line noise is divided into four classes, i.e., (A) continuous colored noise; (B) continuous tone jammers; (C) Periodic impulses synchronous to mains; and (D) impulsive noise asynchronous to mains.”
