Abstract
Various aspects of the instant disclosure are directed towards communicating symbols over a power line carrying alternating current, based upon frequency variations in the alternating current. In accordance with some embodiments, a line driver couples data-carrying symbols over the power line, via a waveform. Variations in the alternating current are monitored and used for defining data useful for providing steps of the waveform. The accessed data entries are used to drive a line driver for modulating alternating current on the power line to account for the variations.
