This article reviews the basis and the main aspects of the recent evolution of Broadband
Power Line Communications (BB-PLC or, more commonly, BPL) technologies. The article …

The implementation of power line communications (PLC) in smart electricity grids provides
us with exciting opportunities for real-time cable monitoring. In particular, effective fault …

Due to the close relationship between power grid fault and impedance, there is a significant
defect in the use of power line communication (PLC) equipment to monitor and locate power …

This paper presents a hybrid Mesh of Things (MoT) network performance model to evaluate
the end-to-end Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) and latency. These PDR and latency measures …

Automated cable health monitoring is an indispensable constituent of a smart grid (SG). We
employ machine learning (ML) techniques to automatically analyze power line …

Networks, mainly composed of cables, are prone to failures. Faults in cables are initially
benign (so-called soft faults) and then evolve over time to a much more severe form of faults …

Power and signaling infrastructure comprise of electrical installations, electronic systems
and cables. A damage to these cables will be catastrophic or at the least significant …

In wired networked control systems (NCS), components such as sensors, actuators and
controllers communicate through cables, by means of Electronic Control Units (ECU). All …
