Hey all,

I actually really want to join the call, because I have a GSoC idea, but I
have a conflict with teaching assistant duties during that time.

So I thought I'd briefly share, and if it does become of interest then
maybe someone can get ahold of me and I could try to mentor or something.
 I thought it might be cool to show that GNU Radio and the USRPP can be
more than just about wireless technology, pushing forward on a hot topic
recently: PowerLine networking.

I've been trying to dig up details of PowerLine implementations, but I
think they are typically very "wireless PHY" oriented.  I think they are in
general OFDM based with Turbo Convolutional Codes.  I think that GNU Radio
already provides a lot of the blocks that would be necessary to build the
PHY. I am not sure of what the necessary frontend might be for this, but
maybe by the summer if Matt and GNU Radio folks are truly interested, a
prototype could be made.

Some info i found on PowerLine details:
