Penn-State Research News: Optical Wireless And Broadband Over Power Lines

Tuesday, Jan. 10, 2006, at 5 p.m. EST

University Park, Pa. --- Penn State engineers have shown that a white-LED system for

lighting and high data-rate indoor wireless communications, coupled with broadband over

either medium- or low-voltage power line grids (BPL), can offer transmission capacities

that exceed DSL or cable and are more secure than RF.

·         Penn-State Research News: Power Line Data Transmission Capacity: Bigger

 Than DSL Or Cable

January 5, 2005

University Park, Pa. -- Penn State engineers have developed a new model for high-speed broadband transmissions

over U.S. overhead electric power lines and estimate that, at full data rate handling capacity, the lines can provide

bit rates that far exceed DSL or cable over similar spans.
