The hOME Gigabit Access (OMEGA) home-area-network project aims at bridging the gap between home and access network and providing Gb/s connectivity to users. The project considers a combination of various technologies such as radio-frequency and wireless optical links operating at infrared and visible wavelengths. When combined with power-line communications (PLC), this enables a home backbone that...
Block transmission with frequency-domain equalization (FDE) has been proven as an attractive alternative to orthogonal frequency division multiplex (OFDM) for radio frequency (RF) communication, especially at 60 GHz. In this paper, we show that FDE can be advantageously applied for optical transmission over dispersive channels as well, and in particular, in direct-detection systems. We review the...
Gigabit home access networks (HANs) are a pivotal technology to be developed if the European Union (EU) Vision of the Future Internet is to be realised. Consumers will require such HANs to be simple to install, without any new wires, and easy enough to use so that information services running on the HAN will be ldquojust another utility,rdquo as, for instance, electricity, water and gas are today...
As a part of the EU-FP7 R&D programme, the OMEGA project (hOME Gigabit Access) aims at bridging the gap between mobile broadband terminals and the wired backbone network in homes. To provide Gb/s connectivity a combination of various technologies is considered. Beside radio frequencies, the wireless links will use infrared and visible light. Combined with power-line communications this enables...
