Guest Editorial Power Line Communications and Its Integration With the Networking Ecosystem

Welcome to the IEEE JSAC special issue on Power Line Communications and its Integration with the Networking Ecosystem. This special issue was motivated by the growth in maturity of power line communications (PLC) over the last ten years since the last JSAC special issue focusing on PLC in 2006. For this special issue, we hoped to receive papers showing the growth of PLC technology itself, and works showing applications and integration with the technology ecosystem.
