Modeling Burst Error Processes in ITU-T G.hnem-Based PLC Systems: Noisy Indoor Environment Analysis Using a Generative Semi-Hidden Markov Model by Akintunde Oluremi Iyiola, Theo G. Swart, Ayokunle Damilola Familua, Thokozani Shongwe

“…This research makes four key contributions: (1) the development of a robust experimental testbed for real-time burst error analysis in NB-PLC systems, (2) the creation of a comprehensive dataset that characterizes noise-induced disruptions in real-world indoor scenarios, (3) a theoretical exploration and practical application of SHMMs for modeling error sequences in NB-PLC channels, and (4) the validation of SHMMs and a modified Baum-Welch algorithm (BWA) for efficient modeling and parameter estimation of burst error processes. Together, these contributions enhance the understanding of burst error dynamics and provide a foundation for improving the resilience and efficiency of NB-PLC networks in real-world indoor environments.…”
