Abstract :BPL or PLC is relatively a new technology that is considered an attractive system to deliver broadband communications over power lines. The main objective of paper is to understand the impact of in-home PLC devices in case of integrated environment with other technologies. Initially, FTW Simulator for channel transfer function analysis of an in-home PLC network topology is used. Furthermore, through measurements conducted in laboratory environment different scenarios are built for different test scenarios and the coexistence of in-home PLC, Ethernet and Wi-Fi Networks is investigated. Toward the end of the paper, throughout different scenarios the impact on video quality of in-home PLC, will be closely monitored and evaluated.Keywords : BPL, channel transfer function, FTW simulator, in-home PLC
