Resource allocation in OFDM-based PLC systems impaired by additive impulsive Gaussian noise

This work outlines a procedure for choosing the gap from the Shannon capacity curve in order to solve resource allocation problems in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing-based power line communication systems impaired by impulsive Gaussian noise. In this regard, we perform statistical analyses of additive impulsive Gaussian noise models in order to measure the effect of the noise information on the proposed technique. Next, we solved resource allocation problems under symbol error rate constraint to verify the correctness of the proposed technique.
