Enabling Subscriber-to-Subscriber Communication in an NBMA DSL Network

چکیده
Residential broadband digital subscriber loop (DSL) networks are used fo r many applications, such as surfing the Web, ICQ and e -mail. One of the more performance intensive applications is distributed gaming. Participants in an online game may subscribe to multiple ISP’s, or they may share the same ISP. In the case where severa l gamers share the same ISP, they will likely all reside in the same non -broadcast multiple access (NBMA) network. In this situation, manual configuration of each subscriber’s machine is often required for them to communicate. In this paper we detail a met hod that removes the need for manual intervention, and enables communications between machines on the same NBMA network.

متن کاملFeasibility and problems of DSL loop topology identification via single-ended line tests
Abstrac t Digital subscriber lines (DSL) offer the possibility to deliver broadband services over the existing telephone network. Yet, before deploying DSL, the subscriber loops must be tested to see whether they can support high-speed data services, and at what rate. Single-ended automatic qualification is essential for achieving low-cost deployment of DSL, since it allows loops to be qualifie...
متن کاملRadio Frequency Interference and Capacity Reduction in Dsl
The issue of radio frequency interference in Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) networks is of particular concern in urban areas with many strong radio sources nearby. This paper investigates in detail the mechanisms underlying the capacity reduction due to the presence of radio frequency signals from Amplitude Modulated (AM) broadcast stations in an ADSL network. An ADSL system, channel, and radio ...

This paper investigates the benefits of dynamic spectrum management (DSM) in terms of reducing the power consumption and improving the data rates and robustness in digital subscriber line (DSL) networks. Non-DSM solutions cause strong interference in a shared DSL binder and lead to instability in the network. However, DSM mitigates such interference, stabilises DSL service, and saves power cons...
متن کاملDSL Physical Layer Testing
Over the next few blog posts, we will cover some of the basic principles of testing the performance of the Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) physical layer. Each set of DSL transceivers operates over a local loop of the telephone network. Essentially, this is a transmission line consisting of two copper conductors that are twisted together. The exact wire gauge, dielectric insulation between the co...
