Broadband power line communication (BPLC) is a promising technology for indoor broadband communication networks. However, BPLC has restricted transmission power in the very high frequency (VHF) band in order to avoid harmful interference to existing wireless services. In this paper, a new hybrid multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system is proposed between BPLC and TV white space (TVWS) channels...
Home energy management systems (HEMSs) are considered as an important part of the realization of smart grids. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and power line communication (PLC) are two technology enablers for the HEMSs. However, the lifetime of WSNs is limited by the battery capacity while PLC lacks the flexibility that WSNs offer. We propose a hybrid sensor network, which consists of both wireless...
Input-series and output-parallel (ISOP) system, in which multiple converter modules are connected in series at the input sides and parallel at the output side, is very suitable for high input-voltage applications. Input voltage sharing and output current sharing of the constituent modules among the ISOP system must be ensured. A novel wireless input voltage sharing control strategy for ISOP system...
The transmission rate, delivery reliability, and network lifetime are three fundamental but conflicting design objectives in energy-constrained wireless sensor networks (WSNs). In this paper, based on stochastic network utility maximization framework, we address the optimal rate–reliability–lifetime tradeoff with time-varying channel capacity constraint, reliability constraint, and energy constraint...
