"Corridor Systems sent an Open letter to the FCC http://www.corridor.biz/031201-fcc-letter.pdf regarding ARRL's opposition to BPL. In the letter, Glenn Elmore, Chief Technology Officer, who also holds Amateur Radio call sign N6GN, said, "Corridor Systems has demonstrated a BPL technology which is completely compatible with the Amateur Radio Service and, indeed, with all users of the HF-VHF spectrum, one which can be operated completely within Part 15 guidelines, is compatible with other services and is an excellent cohabitant of the public spectrum." During the 216 Mbps BPL test using 2.4 GHz and 5.3 GHz ISM/Part 15 spectrum, the letter said "Corridor Systems demonstrated normal system operation, maintaining high dynamic range, in spite of the presence of a high-level, 2.4 GHz fixed wireless transmitter located approximately 1/2 mile and within line-of-sight of the BPL system and sharing common spectrum." "These results indicate there is no reason for the FCC to allow high frequency based broadband over power line systems when an alternative exists that offers greater bandwidth and no threat to existing HF, VHF and UHF spectrum users. Users of the 2 to 20 GHz spectrum may have some concerns and these should be addressed, but if G-line technology or a later refinement of it is being used, as appears likely, there should be little radiation from the power lines. |
