Recenzje

'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, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne
