Abstract
A method and apparatus for impulse noise mitigation. In one embodiment, the method comprises identifying one or more impulse noise affected samples of a communication signal transmitted via power line communications; creating, based on the identified one or more impulse-noise affected samples, one or more erasures; and adaptively controlling a correlation threshold for packet preamble detection, wherein the correlation threshold is adaptively controlled based on the one or more erasure.
