Reviews

'This book provides a unique view on the conceptual as well as the practical aspects of power-line communications. It addresses the experimental deployments and implementation of PLC networks and at the same time it explains the fundamentals of this technology, bridging the gap between industry and academia. This book will prove extremely useful to any engineer that is not only interested in deploying the technology but also wants to understand how it works and optimize its performance.' Albert Banchs, University Carlos III of Madrid and IMDEA Networks 'This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to learn and understand how PLC networks work, what rationale leads to some protocol design choices, how PLC interoperates with WiFi and how the performance of PLC networks can be optimized. The academic researcher will enjoy a comprehensive and unified coverage of material that is so far missing from academic textbooks, and the practitioner will benefit from the authors' extensive experience in PLC networking to get useful advices on issues that appear across the entire protocol stack of PLC networks.' Patrick Thiran, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne
