  • HF Coexistence with Power Line Channel Trials

Metropolitan architecture of Lancaster University

 

  • Experimental work was undertaken to investigate interference criteria on HF radio link terminal equipment when operated in close proximity to wire line systems and in particular with reference to close proximity in-building PLT systems. The application of radio frequency signals to electricity distribution networks, particularly in-building networks might enable rates of re-use of sections of the electromagnetic spectrum, which would otherwise not be possible. 

  • Due to the characteristics of Electricity Distribution Networks (EDN) the application of HF signals for PLT purposes offers a good compromise in terms of reach per watt per Hz.  It follows that the key coexistence criteria for radio and wire line systems can be identified, then a coexistence algorithm might be developed to enable a more efficient utilisation of the HF radio spectrum. This in turn might enable a much more effective use of existing national and international assets to the mutual benefit of all.
