Broadband access is key to ensuring robust economic development and improving quality of life. Unfortunately, the communication infrastructure deployed in rural areas throughout the world lags behind its urban counterparts due to low…
Bandwidth is one of the essential resources for communication. Due to the emergence of large number of new services in different types of communications and their value added entities, the demand for bandwidth has gone up more than ever…
Over the years, communication speed of networks has increased from a few Kbps to several Mbps, as also the bandwidth demand, Communication Protocols, however have not improved to that extent. With the advent of Wavelength Division…
Network technologies are traditionally based on wireline solutions. But the introduction of the IEEE 802.11 standards have made a huge impact on the market such that laptops, PCs, printers, cellphones, and VoIP phones, MP3 players in our…
In addressing the universal deployment of digital services it is necessary to decide on the breadth of "universality" and the type of functionality of "digital services". These two decisions are linked: certain desirable functionality does…
Heterogeneous Networks is the integration of all existing networks under a single environment with an understanding between the functional operations and also includes the ability to make use of multiple broadband transport technologies and…
Broadband Internet service is widely expected to be the fundamental universal service for the 21st century. But more than a decade of national and international struggles to close the digital divide between broadband haves and have nots…
Dramatic data traffic growth, especially wireless data, is driving a significant surge in energy consumption in the last mile access of the telecommunications infrastructure. The growing energy consumption not only escalates the operators'…
Many real-world communication networks often have hybrid nature with both fixed nodes and moving modes, such as the mobile phone networks mainly composed of fixed base stations and mobile phones. In this paper, we discuss the information…
Cloud computing is a complex infrastructure of software, hardware, processing, and storage that is available as a service. Cloud computing offers immediate access to large numbers of the world's most sophisticated supercomputers and their…
With the fast development of high-speed railways, a call for fulfilling the notion of communication at "anytime, anywhere" for high-speed train passengers in the Train Operating Control System is on the way. In order to make a realization…
