PROJECT TITLE: Next-generation DSL Technology
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Existing DSL technologies (including ADSL, ADSL2, ADSL2+, SHDSL, and VDSL) have been focused on optimizing performance in a single point-to-point link of copper pair between the Central Office (CO) and the Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) side. One of the major impairments that limit performance of existing DSL solutions is the crosstalk noise from adjacent loops within the same copper binder group. The ASTRI MIMO DSL technology development aims at eliminating crosstalk noises between the copper pairs in use within the same binder, which results in a substantial performance improvement over existing DSL technologies.
FOCUS AREA(S): Integrated Circuit Design
KEYWORDS: IC design;DSL
COLLABORATION: Flexible and on a case-by-case basis
