Abstract:
In one embodiment, a device in a network receives a message from a neighboring device that identifies the electrical phase on which the message was sent. Crosstalk is identified between the device and the neighboring device by determining that the message was received on a different electrical phase than the phase on which the message was sent. One or more distinct communication channels between the device and the neighboring device are identified based on the identified crosstalk with each communication channel including or more electrical phases.
