Broadband Networks

Passive optical network (PON) is one of the most successful broadband access architectures being deployed worldwide. PONs provide high capacity, increased reach, and low-power consumption at a very reasonable cost, on par with the cost of DSL deployments today. This paper provides an overview of present and emerging PON technologies, and discusses PON's important role in the evolution of optical access from the architectural perspective. While describing the evolution of optical access architecture, we present two important integration options: optical+wireless access integration and metro+access integration. Potential PON capacity upgrades are discussed with special emphasis on achieving a seamless upgrade. We evaluate different PON evolution strategies in the context of next-generation PON, where gradual, demand-based migration demonstrates a number of significant benefits.

The proliferation of wireless broadband usage over the last decade has led to the development and deployment of multiple broadband wireless radio access technologies (RATs) such as EVDO, WiMAX, HSPA and LTE. To support the ever-increasing wireless traffic demand, researchers have worked on the concept of an integrated heterogeneous wireless environment that encompasses several of these RATs which makes the resource allocation process more efficient by assigning each user in the system to the best RAT/RATs. In this paper, for such an integrated heterogeneous wireless system, we show the possible gains in spectral efficiency at the cost of increased energy consumption for an unbalanced heterogeneous wireless network deployment scenario. In prior work, based on the assumption that all cellular operators under study were equally well-provisioned, we showed an increase in spectral efficiency of up to 75%. In the research presented in this paper, we assume the coverage of each operator might differ significantly in a given area. With this `unbalanced' scenario, we show that an ideal, centralized allocation strategy provides an almost linear tradeoff between gain in spectral efficiency (554%) and worst-case increase in energy consumption (615%) for users supporting elastic traffic.

For the first time a full/streamlined life cycle assessment (LCA) case study was performed to estimate the carbon footprint of three types of FTTx networks deployed in Italy. The functional unit is “broadband network in an Italian urban dense area for use by 10,000 homes during one year” The worst case results show that FTTB, FTTCab, and FTTH all emit

The strict relation between broadband development and economic growth and its central importance in modern economies is nowadays a demonstrated fact. Cheap and ubiquitous high-speed internet access promises to accelerate economic growth, to create new jobs and industries, to advance education and lifelong learning, to improve health care decision making, and to raise living standards; conversely, foregone broadband access imposes high economic and social costs.
In the global competition context, the U.S. and Europe have used different methods to reach the level of broadband efficiency and diffusion already existing in the Asian countries. In fact, while on one hand the US followed a deregulatory approach directed to improve infrastructure-based competition, this even with the support of private investments, on the other hand, the European Sate aid regulation tried to channel public resources with the aim to ensure service-based competition and – consequently – to improve consumers’ welfare.
In this picture, the article will analyse the European State aid policy in the broadband field – specified in the Guidelines published in 2014 – and the U.S. recent policy trends for the diffusion and implementation of broadband. As result of the compared analysis, a slow convergence of the two policies will appear, even confirmed by the Federal Communication Commission approach, now recognizing the importance of effective broadband affordability and showing, at the same time, the intention to improve service-based competition through supporting programs and a new central role for local municipalities. Given the above, according to the author’s view, the European experience in State aid policy would now provide useful e analytical tools to the American policymakers, actually engaged with the attempt to lower prices and to improve service-based competition in the American broadband market.

Smart antennas enable space division multiple access, that is they manage access to a network by accounting for where users are spatially and using antenna technology to better isolate signals from noise and interference. For mobile systems, the benefits are increased capacity from existing cell sites, maximum return on infrastructure investment, and improved network efficiency and performance. In mobile systems, all the benefits for base-to-mobile and mobile-to-base paths occur as a result of smart antennas being installed at the base site. For fixed wireless systems, smart antennas are practical for both the base station and the remote station (RS). This paper discusses the increase in throughput that is realized by using smart antenna technology in a fixed wireless system. The management of packet transmission and reception, a key component of maximizing capacity, is described. Also included is a discussion of the user benefits and capacity impact of smart antennas at a remote station.

Many advanced data services are driving up wireless technology, which is further boosted by growth in advanced market segments. The wireless industry is evolving from a Web of independent networks into a single integrated network with multiple standards; the expectation is that WI-FI, WI-MAX and 3G will coexist to enable a host of exerting new applications and business models. This paper focuses on concepts of WI-MAX technology, which employs microwave for the transfer of data wirelessly, and it also presents its comparison with WI-FI, and 3G technologies. WI-MAX is delivering broadband wireless access to the masses and represents alternative to digital subscriber lines (DSL) and cable broadband access. WI-MAX is based on IEEE 802.16 standard and is scalable. It stands for wireless (WI) microwave access (MAX). WI-MAX will provide anywhere, anytime connectivity. Features of WI-MAX are OFDM i.e. orthogonal frequency division multiplexing, sub channelization, directional antennas and adaptive modulation, which make WI-MAX as the technology of today. The Benefit of WI-MAX technology is that the signals can be run very close to each other on wireless channels. Super narrow lanes can put a lot of traffic over them without disturbance. Many technologies currently available can only provide line of sight (LOS) coverage; the technology behind WI-MAX has been optimized to provide excelled non-line of sight (NLOS) coverage.

Advertising is currently the main source of income for digital media. The crusade by big media organizations to establish pay walls, in various forms, is not inconsistent with the fact that digital advertising is the main source of income for media outlets in the virtual environment. For media organizations it is useful to know the typology of digital advertising. This improves business strategies, including those that combine digital and paper versions. The Research Group on Digital Journalism and Broadband has conducted an empirical study of the Spanish digital journals, based on the digital versions of the mass-readership newspapers, El Mundo and El País. We found a high
number of advertisements, the predominant forms being banners and box ads.
