Science news briefs: 1/17/05Monday, January 17, 2005 Staff and wire reports Data over power lines Overhead electric power lines have the potential to carry computer data at rates far exceeding those of DSL and cable modems, a Penn State electrical engineer says. Mohsen Kavehrad, director of the Center for Information and
Communciations Technology Research, says his computer models suggest that
power lines theoretically could send data to individual homes at rates of
hundreds of megabits per second, compared with the typical DSL rate of two
or three megabits per second. He presented his findings earlier this month
at a networking conference in Las Vegas.
