HOMEPLUG AV PHY

FRAME MODULATION

Many more carriers (longer symbol time) than HP 1.0 allowbetter and more efficient adaptation to the channel

917 active carriers in 1.8 to 30 MHz depending on region

HAM band notching

Smooth coexistence inside the ecosystem

Carriers modulated from BPSK to 1024 QAM

More information on every carrier higher bandwidthEach carrier can have a different modulation, adapted to

channel conditions

Maximise the usage of the channel

HOMEPLUG AV MAC

Synchronization to AC cycle via Beacon period

Improved noise mitigation

Ex: switching power supplies and low consumption lights

Prioritized CSMA similar to HomePlug 1.0

Best effort traffic and quick admission control

Additional TDMA mode for guaranteed QoS Bandwidth reservation, latency & jitter control

Hybrid Mode enables HomePlug 1.0 and HomePlug AV tooperate on the same power lines

Investment protection128-bit AES security (vs. 56-bit DES in HomePlug 1.0)

Improved confidentiality of communications
