| MAIN OBJECTIVE: | i) to propose a streamlined optical access and radio network architecture with extended range, simplified implementation and deployment;
ii) to develop combined fibre and radio transmission centralised impairment compensation extending the FTTH range to > 100 km; iii) to enable single, end-to-end management architecture along the FTTH access network of the complete photonic and radio access paths; iv) to provide converger OFDM-baseband, medium-range WiMAX and short-range UWB and cellular LTE on a conventional wavelength division-duplexed (WDD) and a reflective-electroabsorption transceiver (R-EAT) based network architecture; v) to demonstrate the feasible network operation with signals (UWB) in the 60 GHz radio band; vi) to create an open house showroom in order to shown the approach benefits to the general public. |
