IEEE/EMC Society Meeting November 8, 2005 Time: Social 5:30 p.m. Presentation 7:00 p.m. Place: Applied Materials Bowers Cafeteria 3090 Bowers Ave., Santa Clara, CA 95051-0804 Subject: BPL Emissions Compliance Guidelines Speaker: Jerry Ramie Access Broadband over Power Lines is a new type of carrier current technology that provides high-speed broadband Internet access using electric utility companies’ power lines. Controversy has surrounded the deployment and testing of BPL systems since they were introduced. The Certification requirements outlined in this Presentation are the required means for assessing compliance and mitigating interference complaints. Understanding their unique features will be necessary for EMC, Power and Radio Communications engineers to ensure BPL compatibility with existing radio services. The Presentation describes the various system architectures, and details the Certification requirements of the FCC Report and Order 04-245 that took effect on February 7, 2005. This work is from the Electric Power Research Institute’s publication # 1011663, and is now available to the public by calling 1-800-313-3774 (option 2). Speaker Bio: Jerry Ramie has authored an August, 2005 article on BPL Certification testing requirements, which can be viewed at < ttp://www.conformity.com/0508/0508review.html> http://www.conformity.com/0508/0508review.html .
