Subchannels allocation on multiple pDSL lines

The pDSL technology is used for providing multiple, high-speed broadband links over power lines in the indoor environment This work addresses the problem of bandwidth allocation between the various links of a pDSL network and proposes an algorithm for determining the allocation of the various subchannels during network activation and periodically during the normal network operation. The paper also demonstrates the performance of the proposed algorithm using an illustrative example.
