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 optimisation
- 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 to be eligible for publication in 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
arranged in advance of the event and who is qualified
both to present and answer questions. 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 papers.
Accepted and presented papers will be published in the
IEEE ISPLC 2014 Conference Proceedings and submitted
to IEEE Xplore®.
