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.
