  "textContent": "A system and method for power line communication (PLC) reception are provided. In one embodiment, a tractor controller is provided comprising a main processor, a first co-processor, a second co-processor, and third co-processor. The first co-processor is configured to create a digital waveform from an analog power line communication (PLC) message received from a trailer via a power line. The second co-processor is configured to: for each of a plurality of chirps in the digital waveform, compare a given chirp with a previous chirp to predict whether a phase change occurred; and create a digital bit stream representing the PLC message from the predictions. The third co-processor is configured to process the digital bit stream and send the digital bit stream to the main processor. Other embodiments are provided.",
