Abstract
SUMMARY The transmission of 1.5 Mb/s and beyond data rate in the conventional twisted-pair local loops, called asymmetrical digital subscriber line (ADSL) technology, will be possible to create a new transport access capability to provide economic wideband voice/data/video integrated services directly to residential customers. The term ‘asymmetric’ in ADSL refers to the much higher data rate in the direction from central office (CO) to the customer and the lower rate of return (control) data from the customer to the CO. Discrete multitone (DMT) modulation has been selected as the modulation scheme in ADSL. Because the crosstalk of local loops in Taiwan is 10-15 dB worse than that in the US, the service capability of DMT ADSL for Taiwan’s local loops may be different from that in other countries, and thus needs to be evaluated. On the basis of the characteristics of Taiwan’s local loops, transmission capability is estimated to be 1.544 Mb/s and 6 Mb/s in Taiwan. Simulation results also show what percentage of users in Taiwan may have 1.544MbIs or 6Mb/s of ADSL services. Far-end crosstalk (FEXT) and additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) are considered to be the dominant noise sources in the work.
