G.hn network node and method for operating a G.hn network node in the presence of a homeplug network

摘要

Embodiments of a G.hn network node and method for coexistence between G.hn network nodes and HomePlug nodes are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a G.hn network node transmits an additional preamble and header prepended to G.hn transmissions. The additional preamble and header are configured to be readable by HomePlug nodes and cause the HomePlug nodes to refrain from transmitting during the G.hn transmissions.
