摘要：

In this paper, a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) system is proposed for narrowband power-line communication (NB-PLC) applications in medium-voltage (MV) networks. Multi-conductor transmission line theory is used for accurate MV NB PLC channel characterization and evaluation of the spatial correlation between the phase conductors. By optimizing the indices of the active OFDM sub-channels, the bit allocation across them, and the transmit power allocation across the spatial beams, the proposed MIMO-OFDM design can achieve significant data rate gains over single-input single-output OFDM transmission. The achievable MIMO-OFDM data rates are evaluated for an MV overhead network with different lengths, coupler impedances and branches, showing that the proposed MIMO-OFDM design is an efficient implementation of NB-PLC technology in MV smart distribution grids.
