Written by experts in the field, this book provides an overviewof all forms of broadband subscriber access networks andtechnology, including fiber optics, DSL for phone lines, DOCSIS forcoax, power line carrier, and wireless. Each technology isdescribed in depth, with a discussion of key concepts, historicaldevelopment, and industry standards. The book containscomprehensive coverage of all broadband access technologies, with asection each devoted to fiber-based technologies, non-fiber wiredtechnologies, and wireless technologies. The four co-authors'breadth of knowledge is featured in the chapters comparing therelative strengths, weaknesses, and prognosis for the competingtechnologies.
Key Features:
* Covers the physical and medium access layers (OSI Layer 1 and2), with emphasis on access transmission technology
* Compares and contrasts all recent and emerging wired andwireless standards for broadband access in a single reference
* Illustrates the technology that is currently being deployed bynetwork providers, and also the technology that has recently beenor will soon be standardized for deployment in the coming years,including vectoring, wavelength division multiple access, CDMA,OFDMA, and MIMO
