In many engineering applications, physical systems are controlled by a set of external inputs and their behavior is monitored by the system states. The system states may not be measured or [...]

Power line communication (PLC) is the technology that exploits existing power lines to convey data signals. It’s an old but brilliant idea that can help saving telecommunication [...]

“I have been sharing my thoughts in a recent conference where I was invited to speak about education in the field of telecommunications engineering“, prof. Tonello says. “I [...]

State-of-the-art power line communications (PLC) channel models follow either a bottom-up or a top-down strategy. The forner uses transmission line theory and it captures the physics of [...]

The Alpen-Adria-Universität is partner of a new three years project “Smart Grid Technology” that aims at the development of a master program in smart grid technology through the [...]

Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) aspects in the context of Power Line Communication (PLC) systems are of great importance. In the paper “EMC Regulations and Spectral Constraints for [...]

“Can we derive the topology of a wireline grid and more in particular of a smart grid ? This is the question that I asked to myself”, prof. Tonello says. Why is the topology knowledge [...]

“While physical layer security (PLS) is a well understood topic in wireless communications, we have only recently addressed PLS in PLC. The PLC channel has very peculiar characteristics that [...]
