Zipper VDSL: A Solution for Robust Duplex Communication over Telephone Lines
نویسندگان
چکیده
We overview a digital duplex scheme called Zipper, intended for DMT-based VDSL systems. The Zipper multicarrier duplex scheme represents a breakthrough toward digital implementation of frequency-division duplexing. A duplex scheme is a method to divide the capacity of a line between the upstream and downstream directions. Zipper divides the available bandwidth by assigning different subcarriers for the different directions. As a prerequisite, DMT symbols are extended with an additional cyclic suffix, and are shaped at both transmitter and receiver. Zipper is characterized by high flexibility and high spectral compatibility with programmable spectrum usage, robustness against frequency-selective impairments such as radio frequency interference and bridge taps, interoperability with ADSL, and high spectral efficiency since no guard bands are needed.

Zipper: a duplex method for VDSL based on DMT
In this paper, we present a new duplex scheme, called Zipper, for discrete multitone (DMT)-based very high bit-rate digital subscriber line (VDSL) systems on copper wires. This scheme divides the available bandwidth by assigning different subcarriers for the upstream and downstream directions. It has high flexibility to divide the capacity between the up and downstream, as well as good coexiste...
متن کاملZipper - a exible duplex method for VDSL I Introduction II The Zipper Duplex Method
A novel duplex scheme for DMT-based VDSL systems on copper wire pairs is introduced. This method, named Zipper, uses different subcarriers in opposite transmission directions to divide the available bandwidth between the two directions. It provides exceptional versatility when it comes to dividing capacity between up and downstream. The scheme has high duplex efficiency, low latency, and most i...

ew, if any, other technical inventions have had as much impact on mankind as Bell's invention of the telephone in 1876. Nearly a billion exist worldwide, reliably enabling communication from nearly any point on Earth with any other point, with wireless versions completing the coverage to ubiquity. The television, computer, and radio perhaps deserve mention as contemporaries of the simple phone....

The need for high-speed communications in access networks is continuously growing. Digital subscriber line (DSL) technology offers an attractive solution for providing highspeed communications over existing telephone wires. Crosstalk between the twisted-pairs is the main impairment in DSL communications. Current deployed DSL systems are designed as single-user systems with the assumption that t...
متن کاملRevisiting Bridged Tap and Spectrum Issue for VDSL Performance (99-560)
This paper addresses the issue of robust VDSL transmission in the presence of bridged taps in the local loop. The impact of bridged taps on transmission performance is described and evaluated for various frequency-division duplexing plans. It is shown that using only 4 bands will under several realistic circumstances result in very poor performance. The conclusion is that a robust duplexing pla...
