Resumo(s)
Although power-line communication (PLC) is not a
new technology, its use to support data communication
with timing requirements is still the focus of ongoing
research. A new infrastructure intended for
communication using power lines from a central
location to dispersed nodes using inexpensive devices
was presented recently. This new infrastructure uses a
two-level hierarchical power-line system, together with
an IP-based network.
Due to the master-slave behaviour of the PLC
medium access, together with the inherent dynamic
topology of power-line networks, a mechanism to
provide end-to-end communication through the two
levels of the power-line system must be provided.
In this paper we introduce the architecture of the PLC
protocol layer that is being implemented for this end.
