%X Using power lines to transmit telecommunications has become one of most suitable options to offer tele-communications services over IP protocol, due to an economic benefit that comes from utilizing a preexisting infrastructure. However, electric grid wasnĄ¯t made for telecommunications purposes, causing several undesired effects such as: multipath behavior similar to wireless network without fast fading, electromagnetic interference, different sources of noise and change of channelĄ¯s response due to loads connected to the grid. This paper shows what kinds of variations of response exist and how this effects can be treated using a stochastic modification of ZimmermanĄ¯s model of PLT network.
