On dynamic packet fragmentation for traffic integration over bandwidth-limited links
We consider a home networking system for integrating packetized isochronous and best-effort traffic over a shared link with limited bandwidth, wherein the isochronous traffic comprises multiple isochronous flows, each associated with a peri...
A simple packet-classifier algorithm for QoS control in home networks
Recently, technology of appliances being networked together in the home has been deployed. To connect the Internet with the home, a home gateway plays an important role in a home network. However, to be more comfortable in the environment o...
Solving the generalized base station placement problem in the planning of Broadband Power Line Communications access networks
Broadband Power Line Communications (B-PLC) technology is an alternative for broadband access networks, allowing bit rates up to currently 200Mbps. This technique uses the wiring of the low-voltage grid in order to offer to the users the te...
Spectrum balancing for DSL with restrictions on maximum transmit PSD
The importance of a power spectral density (PSD) mask restriction is often overlooked when optimizing the spectrum usage for multiuser digital subscriber lines (DSL) systems. However, by developing the optimization strategies based only on ...
DSL—from A to V and back again (invited paper)
Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) technology deployments have steadily increased in the last several years with current deployment counts topping over 200 million lines. While Asymmetric DSL (ADSL) technology continues to see the predominate sh...

Enforcing bandwidth allocation and traffic conformance in Passive Optical Networks
Broadband Passive Optical Network (PON) technology is a promising approach to establish a cost-effective access network. It is intended to provide a simple, low cost, scalable solution capable of delivering broadband access to end users, by...
Design and cost performance of WDM PONs for multi-wavelength users
In many research labs, WDM PON access networks are considered as the next generation optical access. WDM PONs are more adaptable to future technologies than conventional PONs due to their high transmission capacity and their optical transpa...
