You are cordially invited to participate in the 18th IEEE International
Symposium on Power Line Communications and its Applications (ISPLC), which
will be held in Glasgow, Scotland, from March 30 to April 2, 2014. Glasgow
is Scotland's major city with a rich cultural and industrial heritage, and
the proud host of the 2014 Commonwealth Games.
Scope:
------
The symposium focuses on research, application and commercialisation
aspects of the power line communications technology, in both broadband
and narrowband fields. Prospective authors are cordially invited to
submit contributions describing completed or ongoing research related to
the power line communication area. We welcome contributions that address
all aspects related to PLC including but not limited to the following topics:
- PLC in Smart Grids
- Cognitive, cooperative, and autonomous approaches
- Modulation, coding and signal processing for PLC
- Electromagnetic compatibility, interference and coupling
- Multiple access techniques and protocols
- Cross-layer optimisation, service integration
- System architectures, security and PLC networks
- Standardisation, regularisation, and commercial networks
- Channel characterisation, modelling, experimental systems, & field trials
- Multiple access techniques and MAC protocols
- Duplex & repeater techniques, routing and autonomous network functions
- Network planning and optimization
- Green communications
- Coexistence and interoperability
- Modem and LSI design
- Network and service management
- System architectures and solutions
- Broadband and multimedia applications
- Access, in-home and in-vehicle power line networks
- ... and any other topic related to power line communications
*************
To be published in the IEEE ISPLC 2014 Conference Proceedings and IEEE
Xplore, an author of an accepted paper is required to register for the
conference at the full (member or non-member) rate and the paper must be
presented by an author of that paper at the conference, unless the TPC
Chair grants permission for a substitute presenter. Non-refundable
registration fees must be paid prior to uploading the final, IEEE
formatted, publication-ready version of the paper. For authors with
multiple accepted papers, one full registration is valid for up to 3
